Services
Colonoscopy
Colonoscopy examines the large intestine using advanced endoscopic technology. This procedure detects abnormalities like polyps and cancer while enabling immediate treatment when needed. Our center utilizes FUSE scopes for enhanced visualization during colon examinations.
Upper Endoscopy
Upper endoscopy evaluates the upper digestive tract including esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Our physicians use this procedure to diagnose conditions like GERD and peptic ulcers while allowing for tissue sampling and therapeutic interventions during the same session.
Endoscopic Ultrasonography
Endoscopic ultrasonography combines endoscopy with ultrasound imaging to examine digestive tract walls and surrounding organs. This advanced technique provides detailed images of pancreaticobiliary structures and enables precise biopsy collection for accurate diagnosis.
Capsule Endoscopy
Capsule endoscopy uses a swallowable camera device to visualize the small intestine. This non-invasive procedure helps diagnose obscure gastrointestinal bleeding and small bowel diseases that traditional endoscopy cannot reach.
Hepatology Services
Hepatology services address liver diseases including hepatitis and cirrhosis. Our specialists provide comprehensive management for chronic liver conditions while coordinating care with other GI treatments. We offer advanced diagnostic evaluation and treatment planning for complex hepatic disorders.
