Endoscopy

Endoscopy is a vital diagnostic and therapeutic tool in modern gastroenterology, allowing direct visualization of the digestive tract without the need for invasive surgery. Under the expert care of Dr. Mansoor Ali K, a seasoned Consultant Gastroenterologist with over 11 years of experience, patients receive safe, accurate, and timely diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of gastrointestinal conditions.

Endoscopy involves the use of a flexible tube equipped with a light and camera (endoscope) that is gently inserted through the mouth to examine the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum (Upper GI Endoscopy), or through the rectum to evaluate the colon and rectum (Colonoscopy). These procedures help in identifying ulcers, inflammation, tumors, bleeding sources, strictures, and infections.

Dr. Mansoor Ali has personally performed over 15,000 diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures, including advanced techniques such as polypectomy, foreign body removal, variceal ligation, and PEG tube placement. His expertise ensures not only precision and safety during the procedure but also a compassionate approach to patient care, minimizing discomfort and anxiety.

Endoscopy is commonly recommended for symptoms such as persistent abdominal pain, difficulty swallowing, chronic heartburn, unexplained weight loss, vomiting, gastrointestinal bleeding, or changes in bowel habits. It is also essential in cancer screening, especially for stomach and colorectal cancers.

At Ballari Health City, endoscopy services are provided in a state-of-the-art facility with advanced equipment, 24×7 emergency support, and experienced nursing staff to ensure the highest standards of care.
