Gastroenterology

Bhardwaj Multispeciality Hospital is proud to offer comprehensive gastroenterology services aimed at diagnosing, treating, and managing a wide range of gastrointestinal (GI) conditions. Our team of experienced gastroenterologists, along with skilled nurses, technicians, and support staff, is dedicated to providing high-quality care in a comfortable and patient-centered environment.

Here are some key aspects of our gastroenterology services:

1. Diagnostic Procedures: We offer a full range of diagnostic procedures to evaluate and diagnose GI conditions. These may include:
   • Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD): An endoscopic procedure used to visualize the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum for the diagnosis of conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Barrett’s esophagus.
   • Colonoscopy: A procedure used to examine the large intestine (colon) for the detection of colorectal cancer, polyps, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and other abnormalities.
   • Flexible sigmoidoscopy: Similar to colonoscopy but focuses on the lower part of the colon (sigmoid colon) and rectum for the evaluation of conditions such as hemorrhoids, diverticulosis, and colorectal cancer.
   • Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS): A procedure combining endoscopy and ultrasound to obtain detailed images of the digestive tract and surrounding structures for the evaluation of conditions such as pancreatic cancer, bile duct abnormalities, and GI tumors.
   • Capsule endoscopy: A non-invasive procedure involving the ingestion of a small capsule containing a camera to visualize the small intestine for the diagnosis of conditions such as Crohn’s disease, small bowel tumors, and obscure GI bleeding.
2. Therapeutic Procedures: In addition to diagnostic procedures, we offer a variety of therapeutic interventions to treat GI conditions. These may include:
   • Polypectomy: Removal of polyps (abnormal growths) detected during colonoscopy to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer.
   • Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR): Removal of abnormal tissue or early-stage cancerous lesions from the digestive tract using endoscopic techniques.
   • Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP): A procedure used to diagnose and treat disorders of the bile ducts and pancreas, such as gallstones, bile duct strictures, and pancreatic duct obstructions.
   • Esophageal dilation: Stretching of narrowed areas (strictures) in the esophagus to improve swallowing function in conditions such as esophageal strictures and achalasia.
   • Hemostasis: Control of bleeding from GI ulcers, varices, or other sources using endoscopic techniques such as injection therapy, thermal therapy, or clipping.
3. Management of GI Conditions: Our gastroenterologists provide expert management of a wide range of GI conditions, including:
   • Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
   • Peptic ulcers
   • Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis
   • Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
   • Gastrointestinal bleeding
   • Liver diseases including hepatitis, cirrhosis, and fatty liver disease
   • Pancreatic disorders including pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer
   • Gallbladder and biliary tract disorders
   • Colorectal cancer screening and surveillance
4. Collaborative Care: Our gastroenterologists work closely with other specialists and healthcare providers within our hospital, including surgeons, oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, and nutritionists, to provide comprehensive and coordinated care for patients with complex GI conditions. This multidisciplinary approach ensures that patients receive personalized treatment plans tailored to their individual needs and circumstances.
5. Patient Education and Support: We are committed to providing patient education and support to empower individuals to take an active role in their digestive health. Our team offers comprehensive education on GI conditions, treatment options, dietary modifications, lifestyle changes, and preventive measures to help patients manage their condition and achieve optimal health outcomes.

At Bhardwaj Multispeciality Hospital, we are dedicated to delivering exceptional gastroenterology services with compassion, expertise, and integrity. Our goal is to improve the digestive health and overall well-being of our patients through comprehensive evaluation, advanced treatments, and personalized care.
