Gastroenterology and Endoscopic Care Approach
Digestive symptoms can have several possible causes. Persistent abdominal pain, changes in bowel habits, unexplained weight loss, gastrointestinal bleeding, jaundice, or continuing reflux may require specialist assessment rather than repeated symptom treatment alone.
Dr. Saxena’s practice combines medical gastroenterology with endoscopic investigation. Gastroscopy can examine the oesophagus, stomach, and upper digestive tract, while colonoscopy helps assess the large bowel and rectum.
His procedural work also includes ERCP, which can be used to diagnose and treat selected problems involving the bile ducts and pancreas. Endoscopic ultrasound may provide additional information about pancreatic, biliary, and gastrointestinal conditions when appropriate.
The choice of investigation depends on symptoms, previous test results, medical history, and whether warning features are present.
