Paediatric Gastroenterology

Digestive, liver, and nutritional problems in children often are quite different from those seen in adults. Specialized training and experience in Paediatric gastroenterology are important. Paediatric gastroenterologists treat children from the new-born period through the teen years. They choose to make paediatric care the core of their medical practice, which provides extensive experience specifically in the care of infants, children, and teens. We most commonly see children who complain of nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, soiling or stool incontinence, abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, liver disease or elevated liver tests and congenital anomalies of the GI tract.
