You start with your general physician (family doctor you normally go to). Depending on the severity, he may or may not refer you out to a proctologist, who is actually a specialist for that particular portion of the body.

Your personal physician for starters. Some hemorrhoids can be treated by him/her. More extensive hemorrhoids are best treated by a proctologist, also listed as a colo-rectal surgeon.
Modern treatment of hemorrhoids is often a lot less extensive and less painful that that of even two decades ago.

You can start by seeing your family doctor. If they think it merits further evaluation then they will refer you to a GI doctor.
