Cuando te enfrentas a un problema doloroso o delicado como las hemorroides, lo último que quieres es lidiar con una maquinaria médica fría y burocrática.
Trying to figure out the right care for you? Talk directly with a board-certified colorectal surgeon.

Choosing a private clinic like Your Friendly Proctologist isn’t just about a smaller waiting room; it is about a fundamentally different philosophy of care.
Two paths to the same goal, with very different experiences along the way:
One of the most frustrating parts of a standard hospital system is the communication gap. In a traditional setting, it is common to have surgery and then not see your surgeon again for four to six weeks. If you have a question or a concern on day three of your recovery, you are stuck calling a central switchboard, talking to an advice nurse who doesn’t know you, and waiting for a call back that might never come.
El Dr. Chung lleva 11 años ejerciendo y sabe que los primeros siete días son fundamentales para su comodidad. Por eso nuestro protocolo se basa en la rapidez:
The term “concierge care” gets used a lot, but in our office, it means something very specific: 24/7 access. When you undergo a procedure with Dr. Chung, you are given his personal cell phone number. Hemorrhoid recovery doesn’t always follow a 9-to-5 schedule. If you have a question about your pain medication or your diet at 8:00 PM on a Saturday, you can text or call your surgeon directly.
En un gran hospital, ese nivel de atención es algo inaudito. Normalmente te tratan como un número en una ficha. En una clínica privada, eres una persona con un nombre, un historial clínico concreto y un cirujano que se implica personalmente en tu recuperación.
Big hospitals run on “standardized care.” This sounds good in a manual, but it means they often use the same generic pain management and recovery checklists for every single patient, regardless of their specific needs.
Because we are a specialized private practice, we can afford to be nimble. Dr. Chung monitors his patients closely—calling them the day of surgery and checking in twice a day for the first week. This allows him to adjust your protocol in real-time. If a certain medication isn’t sitting well with you or if your recovery is moving faster than expected, we pivot immediately.
Seamos sinceros: los hospitales pueden resultar estresantes, ruidosos e intimidantes. Una clínica privada de proctología está pensada para ser todo lo contrario. Nos esforzamos por crear un ambiente acogedor, sincero e incluso divertido, con el fin de restarle importancia a un tema que pone nerviosa a la mayoría de la gente.
From the initial evaluation to the final follow-up, the goal is to make proctology approachable. You get the expertise of a surgeon with over a decade of specialized experience without the “sterile” and rushed feeling of a massive institution.
Get expert, personalized guidance from Dr. Albert Chung, a board-certified colorectal surgeon focused on getting you back to comfort, fast.
