Hi, has anyone had HALO (hemorrhoidal artery ligation operation) guided by Doppler in Spain?
If so I need some info please.......
1) Can it be done on the Spanish NHS?
2) If not which Hospital/Clinic does this procedure?
3) What is the cost?
Any other information would be appreciated
Hope someone out there can help?
Regards

Hi J,
I had hospital treatment for piles over thirty years ago.
It involved elastic bands being fitted on each one.
I had 3 done.
It cuts off the blood supply and it shrinks.
Very successful, no problems since, I'm 70 now.

Hi Chris, thanks for replying and pleased the outcome was good for you, HALO is the latest treatment for haemorrhoids and claimed to be painless and quick but I cannot find anything re its availabilty in Spain?

Perhaps they don't do the Halo system in Spain.
My treatment all those years ago was quick and painless.
I have every confidence in the Spanish health service, they do a lot of common sense procedures that have been adopted by the UK health service.
