Department of Paediatric Gastroenterology at Ankura Hospitals
The Department of Gastroenterology offers expert care & comprehensive consultation on all stomach & gastric diseases of your child.
The department brings together various sub-specialties to treat digestive disorders, disorders of the colon & intestines besides other diseases of the digestive tract which includes congenital as well as genetic conditions.
Organs that can be affected by these problems are gastrointestinal tract (oesophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine including rectum), liver, biliary system, pancreas and spleen.
Gastroenterology problems in children are quite different from those seen in adults in their presentation, cause, and treatment. So children suffering from gastroenterology related issues need care under a paediatric gastroenterologist who is specifically trained and has the experience to deal with these diseases and to perform endoscopy/colonoscopy in children.
