Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about gastroenterology and booking a gastroenterologist
What is a colonoscopy and when do I need one?
A colonoscopy is a procedure where a flexible camera is used to examine the colon. It is recommended for colorectal cancer screening from age 45, or earlier if you have symptoms or family history.
What is the difference between IBS and IBD?
IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) is a functional disorder causing pain and bowel changes without inflammation. IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) includes Crohn's and colitis, which involve actual inflammation and tissue damage.
Can fatty liver be reversed?
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) can often be reversed with weight loss, a healthy diet, exercise, and controlling diabetes and cholesterol. Your gastroenterologist will monitor liver health with regular tests.
