Real Patient Experiences
"I was treated by Dr. Pedro de María Pallarés, a very good professional who explains things clearly and pleasantly. In my case, he recommended a colonoscopy because of my age, although I wasn't very convinced since I only had irritable bowel syndrome symptoms. I finally agreed and a 50mm polyp was found in the right colon, very close to the appendix, which is a difficult area to access and resect any lesion. However, the doctor with great expertise was able to extract it without complications. The next day I was back to work. At the 6-month check-up, there was no trace of the polyp, a lesion that would have been a major problem in a short time. So eternal gratitude to Dr. Pedro de María."
"Dr. Pedro de Maria has treated us exceptionally! From the beginning he explained everything in detail, the operation was a success and the reviews were perfect! We are very, very grateful for everything!"
"I went to this center because of its Google reviews and I have to say it was a great choice. Dr. Pedro de María Pallarés is a great professional. Close, empathetic and very knowledgeable. I recommend him 100%."
Frequently Asked Questions about Positive Occult Blood
Not necessarily. Only 5-10% of positive tests are due to cancer. Most are caused by hemorrhoids, benign polyps or small lesions. The colonoscopy will allow us to determine the exact cause and reassure you.
Clinical guidelines recommend performing colonoscopy in less than 30 days after a positive test. This ensures early diagnosis and, if polyps are found, their immediate removal to prevent future complications.
No. Conscious sedation makes the procedure completely painless. Many patients don't even remember having the test. We use safe sedation protocols that guarantee absolute comfort throughout the process.
If we detect polyps, we remove them during the same procedure using advanced polypectomy techniques. This avoids the need for a second intervention. The polyps are analyzed to determine if they are benign (most are) and establish appropriate follow-up.
As a member of the Prevecolon Program of the Community of Madrid, I have performed more than 1,000 screening colonoscopies in patients with positive occult blood tests. My experience allows me to make accurate diagnoses and effective treatments with the most advanced techniques available.
