Alabama Colon & Rectal Institute, P.C. (ACRI) is a free standing, private practice in downtown Birmingham, Alabama with four board certified Colon and Rectal Surgeons. Our practice is limited to diseases of the colon, rectum and anus. We perform surgery at multiple sites including five local hospitals and outpatient operations at our AAAASF nationally accredited office-based surgical facility. ACRI provides quality colon and rectal surgical care, colonoscopy and transrectal ultrasound services in an efficient and cost conscious manner. Our major goals are to provide these services in an environment which will assure our patients' privacy, confidentiality, and above all, their satisfaction and safety. We are national preceptors for Ethicon on two procedures (PPH for hemorrhoids and STARR for obstructive defecation syndrome). We are actively involved in teaching. Our surgeons are on the voluntary teaching staff for a local general residency program and our anesthesia department teach CRNA students from Samford University. We do most of our inpatient abdominal surgery laparoscopically with fast tract recovery and excellent cosmetic results.
Although many procedures are performed in-office, each patient is considered individually to determine whether treatment should be performed in-office or in the hospital.
Alabama Colon & Rectal Institute, P.C. specializes in:
-The diagnosis and treatment of both surgical and non-surgical diseases in the colon, rectum, and anus, including benign and malignant diseases
-Colonoscopy
-Ano-rectal surgery
-Stapled Hemorrhoidectomy
-Transrectal Ultrasound
Our in-house anesthesia department is under the supervision of a board certified anesthesiologist and certified registered nurse anesthetists to insure quality comfort during procedures.
