INNOVATION

eXroid Technology Ltd. has developed a highly safe and effective, fully ambulatory treatment and service for haemorrhoid sufferers. This means sufferers are no longer faced with a choice of treatment options that are known to be extremely painful and carry risks of complications, in order to become symptom free. As the UK’s haemorrhoid specialists, eXroid has advanced the science and understanding of the disease, which affects around 9% of the UK population each year to improve the patient pathway for all sufferers. Founded by a sufferer As a long-term sufferer of haemorrhoids, the company’s founder, Graham Bason, underwent several traditional treatments, including banding, which proved unsuccessful. After many years of suffering, Graham heard about a new, highly successful treatment for haemorrhoids from the USA called electrotherapy. This technology was unavailable in the UK or Europe at the time, so Graham made it his mission to better understand it and, after successfully undergoing the electrotherapy procedure, he was determined that the treatment should be made available in the UK to help the millions of sufferers. As Graham explains: “eXroid is a life changing eXroidTechnology Ltd.
