About this specialty
Gastroenterology covers gastro-oesophageal reflux and Barrett's oesophagus, peptic ulcer disease and H. pylori, coeliac disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and inflammatory bowel disease including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, as well as chronic liver disease.
Many digestive complaints look alike while their treatments differ fundamentally, and the distinction between irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease redirects years of care. Our consultants review endoscopy reports, biopsies and laboratory results, and identify whether further testing is needed before committing to long-term therapy.
