COMPREHENSIVE CARE Gastroenterology is one of the fastest developing fields in medicine , and it is not possible for a single specialist to excel in all its different areas . Instead of a single specialist , our patients have access to an entire team of digestive specialists , each an expert in their own area of digestive health . Our specialists ensure that our group remains at the cutting edge of technology and expertise in each area . Our patients are managed by the most suitable specialist for their specific condition .
We provide a full spectrum of endoscopic services , including gastroscopy , colonoscopy , standard and advanced polyp removal , endoscopic ultrasound , endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography ( ERCP ), small intestinal endoscopy , endoscopic dilation , stenting , and feeding tube placement . We also offer niche services including motility studies , manometry and combined pH-impedance monitoring for reflux disorders , hydrogen / methane breath testing for sugar malabsorption , and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth ( SIBO ), as well as Fibroscan liver stiffness measurement .

Some sit on international and regional level expert committees , have performed live demonstrations at workshops , introduced novel techniques and therapeutics , and even won international competitions in their field . We believe in quality assurance , and our professional standards are continuously benchmarked against industry standards .
