Diagnostic and therapeutic upper GI procedure
Endoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure where a flexible camera is used to diagnose—and sometimes treat—conditions of the upper digestive system. It allows detailed examination without incisions.
Accurate diagnosis with quick recovery
Endoscopy uses a long, thin, flexible tube with a light and tiny camera to view the lining of the oesophagus, stomach, and first part of the small intestine. It allows direct inspection and biopsy if needed.
When symptoms such as persistent nausea, difficulty swallowing, unexplained weight loss, or gastrointestinal bleeding occur, endoscopy is the most effective method to identify causes and guide treatment.
Endoscopy often provides rapid answers—confirming or ruling out conditions like ulcers, reflux, inflammation, or bleeding. Early diagnosis helps direct appropriate treatment and improve outcomes.
Recovery from upper GI endoscopy is typically swift—most people return to normal activities the same day. You may feel mildly bloated or sleepy, but full recovery is quick and uncomplicated.
Our team guides you before and after the procedure, including fasting instructions, sedation planning, results review, and follow-up recommendations to ensure your safety and comfort.
