Gastroenterology
Gastroenterology is a medical specialty dealing with the study of the digestive system and its disorders. We deal with the diseases of the entire digestive tract including liver, gallbladder and pancreas. They present with symptoms generally located in the abdomen and range from gassy abdomen to severe acute pain.
We are at the forefront of diagnosis and treatment for gastroenterology diseases through minimally invasive technology. This makes the procedure affordable while ensuring speedy recovery. The patient is closely monitored throughout the process, from early detection, diagnosis and treatment to a better quality of life later.
Our department of Gastroenterology provides the treatment for :
Hepatitis B :
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver camera.gif. Most adults who get it have it for a short time and then get better. This is called acute hepatitis B. Sometimes the virus causes a long-term infection, called chronic hepatitis B. Over time, it can damage your liver. Babies and young children infected with the virus are more likely to get chronic hepatitis B.
Cirrhosis :
Cirrhosis is a complication of liver disease which involves loss of liver cells and irreversible scarring of the liver. Alcohol and viral hepatitis B and C are common causes of cirrhosis, although there are many other causes. Cirrhosis can cause weakness, loss of appetite, easy bruising, yellowing of the skin (jaundice), itching, and fatigue. And many other Gastroenterology disorders.
