Specialized Gastroenterology Services
The Department of Gastroenterology at Shilmoon Specialized Hospital focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the digestive tract, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. We treat acid reflux (GERD), stomach ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), chronic constipation, diarrhea, and hepatitis.
With advanced endoscopic and colonoscopic diagnostic facilities, we can examine the digestive tract lining directly. This helps in early diagnosis of peptic ulcer diseases, polyps, and colorectal conditions.
Tips for Healthy Digestion
- • Eat a high-fiber diet including whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.
- • Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support bowel movements.
- • Incorporate probiotics (like yogurt) into your meals to support gut bacteria.
- • Avoid lying down immediately after eating to prevent acid reflux.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Endoscopy and is it painful?
An endoscopy is a procedure where a thin, flexible tube with a camera is passed down the esophagus to examine the stomach. It is performed under local anesthesia or sedation, making it comfortable and painless.
What are the common triggers for IBS?
IBS triggers vary, but common ones include stress, specific foods (spicy or oily foods, dairy, caffeine), and hormonal changes.
Hepatobiliary Care & Diagnostic Endoscopy Suites
Our Gastroenterology Department is backed by a fully equipped endoscopy suite. We perform diagnostic upper GI endoscopies and colonoscopies with absolute precision, allowing us to screen for gastric ulcers, intestinal polyps, and early-stage gastrointestinal malignancies. We also offer therapeutic endoscopic interventions, such as polyp removals and foreign body extractions.
We provide specialized medical management for hepatobiliary diseases, including fatty liver, liver cirrhosis, jaundice, and hepatitis B & C. Our clinical nutritionists collaborate with gastroenterologists to design specialized dietary guidelines for patients suffering from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and chronic acid reflux (GERD).
