Gastroenterology

Gastroenterology

Gastroenterology is the medical specialty focused on diagnosing and treating diseases of the digestive system, which includes the esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, and colon. These organs are responsible for digestion, nutrient absorption, detoxification, and overall metabolism. When any part of the digestive system is affected, it can lead to pain, discomfort, indigestion, and long-term health complications.

Our Gastroenterology Department provides comprehensive evaluation, advanced diagnostics, expert treatment, and compassionate care for all digestive and liver-related disorders.
