Top Rated Gastroenterologist in Florida

Gastroenterologists at Advanced Gastroenterology provide a wide range of diagnostic tests in order to evaluate and diagnose conditions affecting the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
 
With access to the latest advancements in diagnostic gastroenterology, Dr. Vinay Katukuri, MD, and staff at Advanced Gastroenterology offer various advanced endoscopy services. Endoscopy is a test where a small camera is swallowed to take images of the digestive tract, particularly useful for examining the small intestine.
 
Another commonly used test at Advanced Gastroenterology is an upper endoscopy, where a scope is utilized in order to inspect the stomach, esophagus, and a portion of the small intestine. Gastroenterologists will often also employ a colonoscopy, which involves using a flexible tube with a camera to examine the inside of the colon and rectum for signs of polyps, tumors, and other abnormalities.
 
Flexible sigmoidoscopy, a procedure to inspect the lower part of the colon, is also available. Depending on the unique presenting symptoms,  gastroenterologists may order various imaging tests such as abdominal ultrasounds, CT scans, and MRI scans to get detailed pictures of the abdominal organs. Blood tests, stool tests, and other diagnostic tools may also be utilized as is necessary.

During a gastroenterology exam, the gastroenterologist will begin by reviewing your medical history and discussing your symptoms in detail. This initial consultation helps the doctor understand the nature of your GI issues and any potential risk factors.

They will ask about your diet, lifestyle, family history of digestive diseases, and any medications you are currently taking. A physical examination is then conducted, which includes palpating the abdominal area to check for tenderness, swelling, or other abnormalities.
 
Depending on your symptoms, the gastroenterologist may recommend further diagnostic tests. These may incorporate a combination of blood, imaging, and stool tests as needed alongside the use of endoscopic procedures.
 
The goal is to accurately diagnose the issue and develop a tailored treatment plan. If an endoscopic procedure is necessary, it may be scheduled for a later date, allowing for thorough preparation.
