Endoscopy

Endoscopy is a procedure where a thin, flexible tube with a camera is gently inserted into your stomach or large bowel. It's commonly used to investigate symptoms like nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and digestive issues. The best part? It's minimally invasive, which means you can often go home right after!

Before we had our Endoscopy Unit, most procedures required a hospital stay. But now, about 75% of our procedures are done as outpatient visits, making it much more convenient for you.

Endoscopy isn't just to diagnose – it's also used to treat various gastrointestinal (GI) diseases, even in critically ill patients where surgery might be risky. Thanks to advancements in therapeutic endoscopic techniques, we've seen excellent outcomes, with a significant reduction in mortality rates for conditions like major gastrointestinal bleeding.

We're committed to providing you with the best care possible, using cutting-edge technology and techniques to ensure your health and well-being. If you have any questions or concerns about your endoscopy procedure, don't hesitate to ask – we're here to help!
