“For over 10 years, I suffered with hemorrhoids. It got to the point where I couldn’t sit or stand comfortably. Finally, I decided to do something about the pain and scheduled a hemorrhoidectomy with Dr. Sturrock. The office staff at UMass Memorial was wonderful! I was treated with respect and dignity during the workup, and the staff took the time needed to make sure I felt comfortable along the way. I was amazed at how the pain subsided. I can play with my kids again, and I even went swimming a couple of weeks after surgery. The surgery has changed my life for the better!”
