Gastroenterology

Gastroenterology is the branch of medicine focused on the digestive system and its disorders. Gastroenterology departments deal with diagnosis, examination and treatment services for all diseases of the digestive system, including the esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, liver, gallbladder and biliary tracts, and pancreas.

Some of the diagnostic - therapeutic methods that are used at gastroenterology departments are:

Lower Gastrointestinal (GI) System Endoscopies (Colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy)
Polypectomy, injection sclerotherapy / band ligation / argon plasma coagulation (surgical extraction of polyps, drug injection, banding and burning therapies for hemorrhoids and hemorrhages)
ERCP – Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (endoscopic examination and treatment of the biliary and pancreatic duct)
Endoscopic Ultrasonography (EUS) / Invasive Procedures accompanied by EUS (taking biopsies of pancreatic tumors, etc.)
Dilatation (expansion – with dilators or balloon) and stent (plastic or metal artificial channel) procedures
PEG / PEJ / J-PEG (insertion of a feeding tube into the stomach or small intestine through an incision in the abdominal wall)
Intragastric balloon applications
Endoscopic hemorrhoid treatments (injection sclerotherapy / band ligation)
Esophageal and colonic manometry – motility examinations (graphic examination of muscular functions and movements of the esophagus and the large bowel)
24-hour pH meter measurement (examination of the gastric acid reflux into the esophagus and examination of acid level for 24 hours)

IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE

It was a great experience going for my medical check up in Turkey. From the organisation all the way to the accommodation and medical care everything was well taken care of. I was able to mix tourism and take care of my health. I would definitely recommend this to everyone. It’s worth it.

EVERYTHING IS IMPECCABLE.

In Turkey where I went to take care, everything is impeccable. As soon as I arrived, I was welcomed at the airport, they transported me to my hotel, well received and installed. Immediately, a car transported me to the hospital to start treatment with a translator during my entire stay. 24 hour non-stop service available. I came back very satisfied. This is why I recommend it to everyone in need.

MY STAY IN ISTANBUL WAS VERY SATISFYING.

My stay in Istanbul was very satisfying. I appreciated the hospitality of the Turkish people from the airport to the hotel passing by the hospital where the doctors and the interpreter did an impeccable job. I am thinking especially of the assumption of responsibility for the transport of the hospital by a driver from the airport to the hotel and the return. I will not forget the strong organization driven by Mr. Atalay. Thank you very much.
