Diagnosis and Management of GI Diseases
Gastroenterology at Revere Health
At Revere Health, our Gastroenterology specialists diagnose and manage gastrointestinal (GI) diseases using advanced technology and personalized treatment plans. GI disease can affect any part of the digestive system—from the esophagus to the intestines—and often impacts quality of life. Common conditions include GERD, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and other upper and lower GI disorders.
What is GI Disease
GI disease refers to any condition affecting the gastrointestinal tract, which includes the stomach, intestines, esophagus, liver, pancreas, and gallbladder. These conditions range from temporary infections to chronic illnesses like inflammatory bowel disease. Accurate diagnosis is essential for effective treatment.
Diagnostic Approach to GI Disease
Our providers use a variety of tools to ensure accurate diagnosis:
- Stool and blood tests: Detect infections, inflammation, or abnormalities
- Endoscopic procedures: Colonoscopy, capsule endoscopy, and upper endoscopy to directly evaluate the digestive tract
- Imaging studies: CT scans, MRIs, or ultrasounds to assess GI structures and detect disease
Treatment and Management of GI Disease
Treatment plans are personalized to each patient’s condition and lifestyle. Options may include:
- Medications: Such as anti-inflammatory drugs or immunosuppressants
- Nutritional support: Diet changes to reduce symptoms and promote digestive health
- Lifestyle changes: Stress management, exercise, and avoidance of triggers
- Minimally invasive procedures: Endoscopic or surgical interventions for complex conditions
