Gastroenterology is a condition that affects digestion and the digestive system. Avicenna provides a physician that understands food movement in the digestive system and the liver. In gastrointestinal conditions include peptic ulcer disease, hepatitis, biliary tract disease, gallbladder disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease, pancreatitis and irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).


For a condition like Gastroesophageal reflux disease, the doctor might look for symptoms like uneasiness, food reflux, and nausea or vomiting, stomach discomfort, which causes issues like a burning sensation in the stomach and chest. With the symptoms have been exhausted, treatment is provided according to the leading cause of the symptoms.  The prognosis of this illness is straight-forward since the condition can be controlled and improved quickly. Medication can either be short term or long term depending on the extent of the sickness and the type of symptoms. 


Another common digestive issue is H. Pylori infection, where the patient has a bacterial infection in the stomach. H. Pylori may display symptoms like appetite loss, stomach aches, mouth odor, bloating, and belching. Depending on the status of the patient, several treatment methods can be applied, but the number one option is antibiotics.  After evaluation, Avicenna physician will inform you if there is a need for a referral to a local gastroenterologist specialist in your area and can submit an electronic referral to the specialist of choice.
