What happens at a first consultation?
A first visit typically includes a review of your symptoms and medical history, relevant prior test results (bring colonoscopy reports, imaging, or pathology if you have them), and a focused physical exam when appropriate. From there, the surgeon will explain what’s likely going on, what (if any) additional testing is needed, and the range of treatment options — from conservative management to procedures or surgery — so you can make an informed decision together.
