About the GI Unit
Our team is supported by the latest endoscopic and diagnostic technology.
Many of our doctors in the GI Unit are involved in ground-breaking research, making them the most sought after specialists in their field. Dieticians, psychologists and nutritionists are all available to provide patient-centred care.
Common abdominal symptoms such as rectal bleeding, change in bowel habit and abdominal pain can be distressing for patients. In most cases, the symptoms are not due to underlying health problems (common cases include haemorrhoids, irritable bowel syndrome, reflux). However, for more serious cases, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment is key to recovery.
In our state-of-the-art facilities we treat a range of gastrointestinal conditions, including both common and uncommon disorders of the digestive tract including:
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome
- Dyspepsia
- Reflux
- Change in Bowel Habit
- Rectal Bleeding
- Inflammatory Bowel Disease
- Liver Disease
