When to See a Colorectal Specialist in Singapore

Certain changes to your normal bowel habits and digestive health are immediately noticeable. These symptoms can indicate that something is not quite right, and you may need an early specialist evaluation in order to receive an accurate diagnosis and timely treatment.

Early assessment helps to rule out serious conditions and can help ensure that appropriate treatment is initiated as soon as possible.

Colorectal Conditions We Treat

We provide specialist evaluation and surgical management for a range of colorectal conditions, including:

• Piles/Haemorrhoids

  Swollen blood vessels in the rectum or anus that may cause pain, itching, swelling or bleeding during bowel movements.

• Anal Fissure

  A small tear in the lining of the anus that can lead to sharp pain and bleeding, especially during or after passing stool.

• Colonic Polyps

  Growths on the inner lining of the colon that are often benign but may develop into cancer over time if left untreated.

• Colorectal Cancer

  Cancer that develops in the colon or rectum, which may affect bowel function and spread to other parts of the body if not detected early.

• Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

  Chronic inflammatory conditions such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis that affect the digestive tract, causing symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhoea and rectal bleeding.

• Rectal Bleeding and Bowel Changes

  Unexplained bleeding or persistent changes in bowel habits that may indicate underlying colorectal conditions requiring further evaluation.

Our Specialised Colorectal Services

In order to diagnose and treat the above conditions, Maven Surgery offers a range of diagnostic and surgical colorectal services to support accurate evaluation and effective treatment planning.

• Colonoscopy

  Colonoscopy is a diagnostic procedure that uses a flexible camera to examine the inner lining of the colon and rectum. It is commonly used to investigate symptoms such as bleeding or changes in bowel habits, and to detect polyps or early signs of colorectal cancer.

• Colorectal Cancer Surgery

  At our clinic, colorectal cancer surgery is performed with a focus on minimally invasive techniques where appropriate. These approaches aim to remove cancer effectively while reducing recovery time, post-operative discomfort and the impact of a surgical procedure on surrounding healthy tissue. Our colorectal cancer specialist tailors surgical plans according to the stage, location and characteristics of the cancer, as well as each patient’s overall health and treatment goals.

• Colostomy

  A colostomy is a procedure that creates an opening in the abdominal wall to divert waste into an external bag when normal bowel function is not possible. It may be performed temporarily to support recovery after colorectal surgery or permanently, depending on the underlying condition and treatment required.
