FAQ's Related to Gastroenterologist

What does a Gastroenterologist do?

When someone is experiencing illness or any kind of condition regards their digestive system, they are referred to a Gastroenterologist. The initial treatment phase with your doctor involves getting your medical history right, ensuring the reports are in order and recommending the required tests. The work of a Gastroenterologist is also to help a patient manage his/her health condition of the digestive tract and digestive system, whether it is via medications and/or diet and other lifestyle changes. A Gastroenterologist must have the knowledge of various factors such as:

  1. Gastrointestinal organs
  2. Movement of matter via intestines and stomach
  3. Digestion, absorption of nutrients
  4. Removal of body waste
  5. Liver system
What are the tests required before and during consultation for a Gastroenterologist?

Please do have a look at the various tests required prior to and during the consultation with a Gastroenterologist.:
