An Endoscopy is used to detect ulcers, abnormal growths, precancerous conditions, inflammations, and hiatal hernias. Patients with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, reflux, and unexplained weight loss can benefit from an endoscopy.

Painless Non-Surgical Treatment of Hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoid banding, also called rubber band ligation, is a treatment method for hemorrhoids that have not responded to home treatments. It is a minimally invasive technique that involves tying the base of the hemorrhoid with a rubber band to stop blood flow to the hemorrhoid.

Our small bowel capsule endoscopy is a non-invasive procedure that allows us to examine the entire small intestine with ease. By swallowing a tiny camera capsule, patients can undergo detailed imaging without discomfort or the need for sedation, helping us diagnose conditions that other tests may miss.
