Gastrointestinal (GI) Endoscopy

Gastrointestinal (GI) Endoscopy is a medical procedure used to examine the digestive tract using a thin, flexible tube with a light and camera called an endoscope. It allows doctors to directly visualize the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and colon to detect abnormalities, take biopsies, and even treat certain conditions. Endoscopy is a safe and effective way to diagnose unexplained digestive symptoms, monitor existing conditions, and provide minimally invasive treatment.
