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.
Gastroenterology covers a broad range of digestive and gastrointestinal conditions, including:
The treatment approach depends on the underlying condition, its severity and the patient’s overall health.
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.
