Gastroenterology

Gastroenterology is the medical specialty focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders affecting the digestive tract (esophagus, stomach, duodenum, small and large intestines) and associated organs (liver, gallbladder, pancreas).
Proper motility of the entire gastrointestinal system plays a key role in maintaining healthy digestion, improving the body’s ability to absorb nutrients, and ensuring the elimination of waste and metabolic byproducts.
