Gastroenterology and Hepatology

The gastroenterology and hepatology department deals with the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, liver and pancreas. The most common conditions we deal with are inflammatory bowel disease, cancers, alcoholic liver disease, chronic viral hepatitis and functional bowel disease. We also deliver the colon cancer screening program.

The majority of our patients are outpatients and day cases and are seen first when they come for an endoscopy. When given an appointment, patients will receive a written explanation explaining what to expect when they come in, patients will also have a detailed discussion with a nurse prior to any procedure in the endoscopy unit.
