Gastroenterology

The Department of Gastroenterology offers comprehensive, sophisticated diagnosis and med­ical treatment for adults and children by skilled and experienced staff. We have been able to bring therapeutic relief to patients by utilizing techniques such as foreign body extraction (coin, denture, bone, meat bolus), dilatation of strictures (both benign and malignant), endoscopic he­mostasis (stopping bleeding from ulcers, vascular malformation, varices), stenting for malig­nant tumors (particularly esophageal), removal of polyps from stomach and colon, and feeding tube placement.
