Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

Selective COX-2 inhibitors are used as an alternative to NSAIDs to prevent further damage to the stomach lining as they may have a lower risk of gastrointestinal side effects.

The different specialists in the Gastroenterology department may include the following:

  • Gastroenterologists specialize in conditions affecting your digestive system.
  • Hepatologists diagnose, treat, and manage problems associated with your liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas.
  • Endoscopists use endoscopes to diagnose diseases in Esophagus, Stomach, Abdomen, Colon, etc.
  • Colorectal Surgeons specialize in the surgical care of conditions affecting the small bowel, colon, rectum, and anus.

Many times, one doctor has more than one specialty. You can consult with that specialist, depending on your condition.

Yes, gastroenterologists recommend diet restrictions after the surgery, such as avoiding spicy foods, high-fibre foods, and large meals so that the digestive system can heal properly. 

You can carry the following reports if you have had these done before:

  • X-rays
  • CT scans
  • Blood exams
  • Stool exams
  • Enema or barium swallow test
  • A list of chronic diagnoses (like high blood pressure or depression) and past operations

Actual reports may vary from case to case, but carrying the above reports would be helpful.

The gastroenterologists treat recurring gastric disease in various ways depending on the condition and the severity of symptoms, such as:

  • Medications such as proton pump inhibitors, antacids, and H2 receptor antagonists
  • Dietary management
  • Gastric surgery

The doctors we list are highly sought after by patients.

We consider experience, designation, patient feedback, hospital reputation and our own experience of working with them amongst many factors in creating the list.

Please submit your inquiry on the website. Upon review of the details, a case manager from our team is assigned. The case manager will assist you with opinion, cost, travel, stay, and appointment with the doctor.
