Gastroenterologist
A gastroenterologist is a doctor specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). The gastroenterologist also provides consultations on preventing gastrointestinal diseases in people undergoing aggressive treatment and those who are at risk of developing gastroenterological complications. Recommendations on healthy nutrition, lifestyle and precautionary measures to reduce the risk of GIT diseases are particularly relevant after surgeries for oncological conditions affecting the digestive organs.
Doctors with many years of experience in gastroenterology see patients at the A. Tsyb Medical Radiological Research Centre (MRRC). Our Centre also offers medical services for treating various non‑tumor diseases of the digestive system. The list of paid services at the P. Hertsen MORI includes a GIT check‑up program — a comprehensive examination of the gastrointestinal tract aimed at the early detection of malignant neoplasms.
