Gastrology Department

Gastroenterology is the branch of medicine focused on the digestive system and its disorders. Diseases affecting the gastrointestinal tract, which include the organs from mouth to anus, along the alimentary canal, are the focus of this speciality. Hepatology, or hepato-biliary medicine, encompasses the study of the liver, pancreas, and biliary tract, and is traditionally considered a sub-speciality.
