Colon and Rectal Endoscopy and Surgery (CARES) Center is our state-of-the-art Ambulatory Surgery Center. Our center has been accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) and has been given Medicare Deemed Status by CMS. We perform a variety of services including: surgery to treat bowel incontinence, screening colonoscopies, hemorrhoidectomy, abscess and fistula surgery, fissure surgery, and pilonidal surgery.
Endoscopy Suites
We offer two state-of-the-art Endoscopy suites where we perform endoscopic and anorectal procedures in a relaxed outpatient setting. Located at Stony Point and Hanover, our suites are owned and operated by our own CRS surgeons.
Patients who have to undergo surgery, or even a simple screening colonoscopy or a sphincterotomy, find that having the procedure in our endoscopy suites means more privacy and convenience.

Pelvic Floor Lab
In 2009, CRS added the only pelvic floor lab in Virginia. This diagnostic tool helps us properly diagnose bowel incontinence and pinpoint why bowel control or loose bowels are an issue. This result a more effective treatment plan for that patient and a better outcome.
Our services include:Colonoscopy Screenings
Simple colonoscopy screenings are one of the best ways prevent colon cancer. Colonoscopies detect polyps or other potential issues that can be removed or treated before they progress into colon cancer.
We pioneered the CRS Kinder Colonoscopy to make the process easier. With more convenient prep, less grogginess and shorter recovery time, the Kinder Colonoscopy means you don’t have to dread this life-saving screening. We are so committed to providing this service we even offer them on selected Saturdays.
