Some issues Dr. Rajesh Venkatanaga Putcha, MD can help you with:

Colonoscopy

Colonoscopy is the use of a special tool called a colonoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera on the end) to examine the inside of the colon and rectum. The tube is typically inserted anally, and it allows the physician to examine the large intestine from the inside. It may be done at any time to diagnose bowel problems, but routine colonoscopies are advised after the age of 50 to screen for colon cancer.

A colonoscopy may be performed to diagnose:

Intestinal ulcers
Polyps
Bowel cancer
An unidentified source of pain or bleeding in the intestine

Patients may be asked to drink only liquids in the days before a colonoscopy, or they may be given an enema to remove residual fecal matter. Before the exam, patients are given medication to help them relax, and then lay on their side on a table. The scope is inserted into the anus and gently moved all the way through the large intestine. Air may be pumped into the intestine to improve the view for the physician. Any polyps that are found will be removed. Then the colonoscope will be withdrawn. A colonoscopy is not usually painful, but patients may feel some bloating or have some cramps right afterward. If patients have polyps removed, they might experience a small amount of bleeding. Any side effects should go away within a few hours.

I've been going to Dr. Putcha for 11 years and have always had a positive experience. He is always smiling and makes me feel like I am talking to a friend. I have also seen 2 of the physician's assistants in the office who were equally nice. All of them made me feel confident that they were informed and aware of my issues and the appropriate plan to take if needed. The office staff is equally qualified regarding scheduling, insurance and payments. Once when they were overpaid, they promptly had me a check in the mail to me before I even realized there was an overpayment.

Overall Rating: 5.0 2018-08-24

Dr. Putcha has been my doctor for several years now and I could not be happier with his expertise and advice.  He is highly knowledgeable and is not afraid to tell you what you need to hear when it comes to keeping healthy. He came very highly recommended to me and I would not hesitate to recommend him to you!

Overall Rating: 1.0 2018-02-23

When the anesthesia wore off it felt like someone had used a blow torch inside me.  When I told Dr. Putcha, he told me I would need to go to an emergency room!
