An endoscopy is a minimally invasive medical procedure that uses a flexible tube with a light and camera—called an endoscope—to examine the interior of the digestive tract or other hollow organs.
It allows doctors to visually inspect areas such as the esophagus, stomach, and intestines to diagnose conditions like inflammation, ulcers, bleeding, tumors, or infections. Endoscopy can also be used to perform biopsies, remove polyps, or treat certain conditions without the need for open surgery, making it a valuable tool for both diagnosis and treatment.
Both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are carried out in our Endoscopy Suites. They include external examinations of the colon, the digestive system and the lungs, as well as removing a foreign body from the trachea.

This procedure examines the upper digestive tract, including the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine (duodenum). It’s commonly used to diagnose causes of symptoms like abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, swallowing difficulties, or bleeding. It can also detect ulcers, inflammation, tumors, and allow for biopsies or treatment such as removing polyps.
This examines the entire large intestine (colon) and rectum using a longer endoscope inserted through the anus. It’s primarily used to screen for colorectal cancer, investigate causes of chronic diarrhea, bleeding, or abdominal pain, and remove abnormal growths such as polyps.
Polypectomy
A polypectomy is a medical procedure used to remove polyps—abnormal growths of tissue that can develop on the lining of organs such as the colon, stomach, or nasal passages. Removing polyps is important because some can potentially develop into cancer over time. Often performed during an endoscopy or colonoscopy, a polypectomy involves using specialized tools passed through the endoscope to safely excise the polyp.
