Our Services

Comprehensive Gastrointestinal Care

We offer specialized treatments for conditions affecting the digestive tract, liver, pancreas, and gallbladder, including:

• Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) & Acid Reflux – Research from the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) shows that GERD affects approximately 20% of the adult population, with long-term risks of Barrett’s esophagus and esophageal cancer.
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) & Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) – Studies suggest that IBS affects nearly 10-15% of people worldwide, requiring personalized dietary and medical management.
• Liver Disorders – WHO reports that liver diseases account for 2 million deaths annually, with conditions like fatty liver, cirrhosis, and hepatitis requiring expert care.
• Pancreatic Disorders – The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) states that pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer are increasing globally, necessitating early diagnosis.
• Gallbladder & Biliary Tract Diseases – Around 10-15% of adults develop gallstones, requiring either medical management or minimally invasive surgery.

Early detection is key to successful treatment. We provide state-of-the-art diagnostics and non-invasive procedures:

• Upper GI Endoscopy (EGD) – Recommended by the AGA for conditions such as GERD, ulcers, and chronic gastritis.
