Gastroenterology
Complete Health’s Simon-Williamson Clinic has a committed team of skilled gastroenterologists that can not only offer their diagnostic expertise but also skilled care protocols for your gut health.
The digestive system or the GI tract is one of the most critical parts of the body. Studies have linked gut health to brain health; when one suffers, so does the other. While a family care doctor can offer you primary care, a gastroenterologist specializes in the gut.
The Importance of Gastroenterology
Looking after your GI tract is an essential step in understanding your overall health. Many patients have discovered the numerous health benefits that come from taking better care of their gut health. Often, once the gut has been taken care of, your team of doctors can address other medical problems.
Conditions Your Gastroenterologist Can Treat
- Acid reflux
- Irritable bowel syndrome
- Pancreatitis
- Jaundice
- Gastrointestinal cancer
- Hepatitis
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Hemorrhoids
- Bloody stools, bloating, cramping
- Polyps in the intestine
- Reflux esophagitis
- Ulcerative colitis

Alongside treating the above disorders, a gastroenterologist can help you understand your gut health better. If you have persistent problems, it is essential to make an appointment with a specialized GI doctor to help you get to the root cause of your health concerns instead of treating the symptoms.
