Diagnosis and Management of Digestive Disorders

Gastroenterology

Matis Hospital provides medical evaluation and treatment for conditions affecting the digestive system. Gastroenterology focuses on disorders involving the oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver, gallbladder, bile ducts and pancreas. Digestive symptoms can have many different causes. A gastroenterology assessment considers the patient's symptoms, medical history, physical examination and relevant investigations to identify the underlying condition and determine an appropriate treatment plan.

Gastrointestinal Conditions and Disorders

Gastroenterology covers a broad range of digestive and gastrointestinal conditions, including:

  • Acid Reflux and GERD: Conditions in which stomach contents flow back into the oesophagus, causing symptoms such as heartburn or regurgitation.
  • Gastritis and Peptic Ulcers: Conditions affecting the lining of the stomach or upper digestive tract.
  • Gallbladder Disorders: Conditions such as gallstones and inflammation of the gallbladder.
  • Liver Disorders: Medical conditions affecting liver function, including fatty liver disease and other liver disorders.
  • Pancreatic Disorders: Conditions affecting the pancreas and its digestive and metabolic functions.
  • Inflammatory Bowel Conditions: Disorders that cause inflammation within the digestive tract and may require ongoing specialist management.
  • Constipation and Diarrhoea: Persistent or recurrent changes in bowel habits that may require medical evaluation.
  • Other Gastrointestinal Disorders: Abdominal pain, digestive discomfort, difficulty swallowing and other persistent gastrointestinal symptoms may require specialist assessment.

The treatment approach depends on the underlying condition, its severity and the patient’s overall health.

Gastroenterology Evaluation and Treatment

A gastroenterology evaluation may include blood tests, stool tests, imaging studies or other investigations depending on the patient’s symptoms. When required, procedures such as upper gastrointestinal endoscopy or colonoscopy may be used to examine the digestive tract and help identify abnormalities.

Treatment may include medicines, dietary and lifestyle measures, monitoring or other appropriate interventions. Some conditions may require procedures or referral for surgical management when medical treatment alone is not appropriate.

Long-term follow-up may be recommended for chronic digestive conditions to monitor symptoms, assess treatment response and manage potential complications.
