Gastroenterology

Our gastroenterology departments at Medicana Health Group are staffed by highly qualified and experienced gastroenterologists who are experts in diagnosing, managing, and treating digestive problems. We provide a wide range of services to assist our patients in managing their symptoms and enhancing their general health and wellbeing.

• Diagnostic Services:To assist our patients in understanding the underlying cause of their digestive issues, our gastroenterology departments provide a wide range of diagnostic services. These services include conventional and cutting-edge diagnostic techniques like capsule, colon, and endoscopy. The upper digestive system and small bowel can be seen with a flexible tube and camera during an endoscopy. By doing a colonoscopy, the colon can be seen. A miniature camera in the form of a capsule is used in the non-invasive procedure of capsule endoscopy to view the small intestine. Additionally, we provide specialized diagnostic services like endoscopic ultrasound and ERCP, which enable the diagnosis and treatment of several disorders, such as pancreatic diseases, tumors of the digestive tract, and diseases of the gallbladder and biliary tract.

The endoscope, a small, flexible tube with a light and camera at one end, is used to look inside the body during endoscopy and colonoscopy, diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that are used to identify and manage a variety of diseases, including cancer, ulcers, and gastrointestinal issues such as polyps.

• Endoscopic : During an endoscopy, a flexible endoscope is usually inserted through the mouth and into the small intestine and stomach. The endoscope's camera and light help the doctor view the body's interior and, if necessary, take biopsies. Endoscopy identifies and treats diseases in the upper digestive tract, including polyps, ulcers, and cancer.

• Therapeutic Endoscopy : We provide various endoscopy services for managing benign and malignant disorders, including variceal hemorrhage, strictures, polyps, and others. These treatments utilize specialist tools, including endoscopic submucosal dissection, endoscopic mucosal excision, and endoscopic band ligation. These treatments use cutting-edge technologies that enable a more precise diagnosis and treatment of certain illnesses, such as endoscopic ultrasound and confocal laser endomicroscopy.

• Colonoscopy : During a colonoscopy, a longer, more flexible endoscope is often passed via the rectum and into the large intestine. The colonoscopy, which includes a camera and light on the end like an endoscopy, enables the physician to view the body's interior and obtain samples as necessary. Polyps, colon cancer, and inflammatory bowel disease are among the disorders that a colonoscopy is used to diagnose and treat.

• Treatment Services : We offer a range of therapies for conditions like inflammatory bowel disease, liver disease, and peptic ulcer disease. Our team of gastroenterologists works closely with our patients to identify the most effective treatment strategy for each of their unique needs. These include both medicinal and surgical procedures. Medication is one of our treatment options for symptom control, inflammation management, and avoiding consequences. When medical management is ineffective or for certain illnesses like cancer, surgical treatment options are considered.

• Inflammatory Bowel Disease : Our gastroenterology departments are experts in diagnosing and treating IBD, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. We offer various treatment choices, including prescription drugs to reduce pain, inflammation, and other side effects, as well as possible surgery. We also provide dietary guidance and counseling to assist our patients in managing their symptoms and enhancing their general health and wellbeing.

• Liver Disease : Our team of gastroenterologists specializes in diagnosing and treating liver diseases, including cirrhosis, viral hepatitis, and liver cancer. We offer various treatment options, including prescription drugs to reduce pain, inflammation, and other side effects and possible surgery. We also provide dietary guidance and counseling to help our patients manage their symptoms and enhance their general health and wellbeing.
