Pediatric gastroenterologist

A pediatric gastroenterologist deals with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of gastrointestinal diseases in patients from birth to adulthood. Disorders in the digestive system cause significant discomfort and greatly reduce the quality of life. A paediatric gastroenterologist can help with this and offer an effective solution for problems such as:
- chronic constipation;
- diarrhoea;
- vomiting and nausea;
- jaundice in newborns;
- allergic reactions to food;
- irritable bowel syndrome;
- peptic ulcer disease.
A paediatric gastroenterologist at SILK Medical Clinic will carry out a full examination of your child and choose a suitable treatment. At the initial appointment, the doctor will identify the symptoms, and prescribe additional studies: ultrasound of the abdominal cavity, blood and faecal analyses. This approach allows to make accurate diagnosis and develop an individual treatment plan.
Paediatric gastroscopy
To diagnose diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, gastroenterologists use endoscopy. This is a minimally invasive procedure that allows to assess the mucous membrane of the stomach and duodenum, to detect the presence of ulcers or tumours.
We understand that a young child may require special preparation before the procedure. Doctors of SILK Medical Clinic take into account the peculiarities of children of different ages and try to create comfortable conditions for the examination.
Personal nutrition plan
Nutrition is also of great importance for the health of the gastrointestinal tract. Our gastroenterologists will develop an individual diet on request to minimise the symptoms of existing diseases or to improve the child’s general condition. The specialists at SILK Medical also work with food intolerances. They will carry out diagnostics and help to identify the products that provoke an allergic reaction in the child. Doctors will be sure to suggest an appropriate diet and treatment to alleviate allergy symptoms.
It is important to remember that gastrointestinal disorders may require long-term therapy and monitoring. The experts at SILK Medical in Tbilisi will support you every step of the way.
