At Hospital Brisas, we offer a digestive endoscopy service focused on your safety and well-being. This procedure, also known as gastroscopy, allows our specialist physicians to visualize the inside of your upper digestive tract (esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine) for an accurate diagnosis.
Why Might You Need an Endoscopy?
Your doctor may recommend an endoscopy to:
Investigate symptoms: Such as abdominal pain, persistent heartburn, nausea, vomiting, or difficulty swallowing.
Diagnose diseases: It is the best way to identify conditions such as ulcers, gastritis, esophagitis, hiatal hernias, or the presence of H. pylori.
Take biopsies: Allows obtaining small tissue samples for analysis and confirmation of a diagnosis.
Perform minor treatments: Such as stopping bleeding or dilating a narrow area.
Your Safety and Comfort During the Procedure
We understand that a medical procedure can generate doubts. Therefore, we focus on:
An Expert Medical Team: The study is performed by gastroenterologists and nursing staff with extensive experience in endoscopic procedures.
Safe and Comfortable Sedation: We administer sedation to keep you relaxed and comfortable throughout the procedure, without feeling discomfort.
Strict Hygiene Protocols: We comply with rigorous disinfection and sterilization standards for our equipment to guarantee your total safety.
Quick Recovery: As it is an outpatient procedure, you can return home the same day to continue your recovery in a familiar environment.
If your doctor has recommended an endoscopy, at Hospital Brisas you will find a professional team and a safe environment to perform your study with complete confidence.
