Promed | Your Specialists For Gastroenterology in Chennai
Promed- The Best Gastroenterology hospital in chennai offers specialized medical services using cutting-edge technology and equipment to analyze and treat diseases of the digestive system. We are convinced that patients with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis should not only receive treatment based on the latest scientific findings, but also holistic and individual care, which can make up a considerable part of the treatment. We also believe that early modern diagnostics should also be part of the treatment concept. We therefore also offer state-of-the-art endoscopy options in our team.
Through many years of care and therapy for patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, we have mastered both the diagnosis and the therapy of complex disease states. In our opinion, the optimum therapy for this special group of patients can only be achieved with a combination of a holistic approach and the most modern therapy options. It is therefore important for us to know each patient personally and to care for them individually.
- The view of gastroenterology has developed further: It is not limited to diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and the organs connected to this tract, the liver, gallbladder and pancreas but also deals with many other autoimmune diseases.
- Our range of services includes: the diagnosis and therapy of gastrointestinal diseases as well as the entire spectrum of endoscopy of the digestive tract. Gastroscopy and colonoscopy as well as video capsule endoscopy of the small intestine enable us to view all sections of the digestive tract.
Course Of The Gastroscopy
Before each gastroscopy, there is an informative discussion. In this conversation we will deal with your complaints and questions and decide together with you about the need for an examination. The examination takes about 10 minutes and is carried out with a throat anesthesia or a short propofol anesthetic. In the case of propofol anesthesia, please ensure that you are accompanied, as you are not allowed to drive yourself after the examination.
The Detailed Examination
The endoscopy (mirroring) of the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract is carried out with a thin, flexible fiberglass instrument with a tiny video camera at the tip. The images will then be transmitted to a television monitor where the patient can have a look at these images. If desired, these examinations can be performed in sedation so that the examination is painless. You must appear sober for all endoscopic examinations. In the case of intestinal examinations, a colon cleanse must also be carried out beforehand according to the instructions.
Our Gastroenterologists
Dr. S. Ganesh, an expert in gastroenterology, works at the Promed Hospital in chennai along with gastroenterologist Dr. M. Srinivas together (and possibly also with oncologists). This interdisciplinary approach is used for more precise diagnostics and, as a result, better treatment.
We know that a major factor in triggering an acute episode of the disease is often negative stress. It is therefore our concern to understand the patient holistically and to be able to offer a suitable therapy option. This takes a lot of time together, trust and mutual respect. So that we can always offer you treatment according to the latest therapy standards.
We are now offering gastroscopy and colonoscopy at our clinic in chennai. Please make an appointment in advance.
