- What conditions do gastroenterologists treat?
Specialists who treat disorders of the digestive system are known as gastroenterologists. Acid reflux, ulcers, IBS, Crohn's disease, gallstones, liver problems, and colorectal issues are some of these conditions. They also treat constipation, gastrointestinal bleeding, and other digestive health issues.
- When should I see a gastroenterologist?
You should see a gastroenterologist at a leading hospital for gastroenterology in India if your symptoms, heartburn, nausea, digestive discomfort, alteration in your bowel movement pattern, poor weight gain or loss, or swallowing problems, persist. Early assessment has two advantages: one is an effective treatment, the other is the prevention of problems.
- What is the role of preventive care in gastroenterology?
Regular check-ups as part of gastroenterology treatment in India help avoid the possibility of early risk factors that may lead to digestive complications because the treatment measures are easily taken. Some routine tests, dietary advice and alteration of lifestyle reduce the probability of occurrence of a serious gastrointestinal condition.
- Are minimally invasive procedures available for gastroenterology conditions?
Indeed. At the premier gastrology hospital in India, minimally invasive techniques can be used for endoscopy, ERCP, and laparoscopic surgery. There is a shorter length of stay, reduced operative pain and a diminished risk of postoperative adverse events associated with laparoscopy compared to open surgery.
- How does Gleneagles Hospitals ensure personalized care for patients?
Gleneagles Hospitals offers personalized treatment, and the care and treatment process are uniquely designed to cater to every patient. Because the focus is on all aspects of digestion, the multidisciplinary team works on all facets of the problem to offer a comprehensive solution to the patients.
