Atlas Multi Specialty Clinics offers specialized Medical Gastroenterology services, focusing on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of disorders affecting the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

Diagnostic Services
We offer a wide range of diagnostic services to accurately assess GI conditions, including:

- Capsule Endoscopy: Non-invasive procedure using a pill-sized camera to capture images of the small intestine, helpful in diagnosing conditions like Crohn’s disease and obscure gastrointestinal bleeding.
- Diagnostic Imaging: CT scans, MRIs, and ultrasound studies to assess abdominal organs and detect structural abnormalities.
- Laboratory Tests: Comprehensive blood tests to evaluate liver function, pancreatic enzymes, inflammatory markers, and specific GI-related antibodies.
