Conditions
Our gastroenterologists diagnose and manage a wide range of digestive and liver conditions. Browse the conditions below to learn more about common symptoms, available investigations and treatment options.
Coeliac Disease
Coeliac disease is an autoimmune condition where the ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine. It requires accurate medical diagnosis before dietary changes are made.
Colon Cancer & Polyp Screening
Colorectal cancer is one of the most preventable cancers if detected early. Screening is designed to find and remove precancerous growths (polyps) before they can ever develop into a serious issue.
Chronic Constipation
Constipation is an incredibly common and disruptive issue. When it becomes chronic or fails to respond to basic over-the-counter remedies, it requires a thorough specialist evaluation to rule out underlying structural or functional issues.
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GORD) & Acid Reflux
GORD occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back up into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach (esophagus). Chronic, unmanaged acid reflux can cause uncomfortable symptoms and, over time, lead to inflammation or changes in the tissue lining (Barrett’s esophagus).
Swallowing Difficulties (Dysphagia)
Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) means it takes more time and effort to move food or liquid from your mouth to your stomach. It is a symptom that should always be promptly evaluated by a specialist.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
IBS is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder that causes abdominal pain and changes in bowel habit. It is a condition that requires a supportive, individualized approach rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD): Crohn's & Ulcerative Colitis
IBD involves chronic, long-term inflammation of the digestive tract. It is primarily comprised of two unique conditions: Crohn’s disease (which can affect any part of the GI tract) and Ulcerative Colitis (which is limited to the large bowel).
Liver Disease & Hepatology Care
The liver is responsible for filtering blood, processing nutrients, and clearing toxins. Because liver disease often develops quietly without showing obvious early symptoms, it is frequently first picked up through routine blood tests.
Gastrointestinal Bleeding
Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding refers to bleeding anywhere along the digestive tract, from the oesophagus to the rectum. It can range from small amounts of bleeding that are only detected on testing, to more significant bleeding requiring urgent assessment.
Gas and Bloating
Passing wind and burping are normal parts of digestion. Most people pass wind several times a day. However, excessive gas, bloating, abdominal distension, or bothersome symptoms are not something you simply have to live with and may be worth investigating.
