At Sri Balaji Hospital — a leading multispeciality hospital in Chennai — our experts provide holistic and empathetic care, from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and acid reflux to chronic liver disease and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
We combine clinical expertise with advanced diagnostic equipment to identify the underlying root cause of digestive symptoms — including:
Our team is highly dedicated to offering personalised treatment plans — from medication management to dietary counselling — that guarantee symptom control and overall digestive well-being.
Whether you require assistance with managing chronic gastritis or need treatment for liver cirrhosis, we deliver a “multidisciplinary” approach designed to alleviate pain and enhance your quality of life.

We evaluate symptoms using pH monitoring and endoscopy. Management includes acid suppression therapy, lifestyle modifications, or more advanced treatments when necessary to avoid complications — like Barrett's oesophagus and oesophagitis.
We diagnose the underlying cause — usually NSAID use or H. pylori infection — using endoscopic evaluations and laboratory tests. Treatment includes acid blockers, antibiotics, and follow-up to ensure complete healing and prevent ulcers.
We individualise a treatment plan involving dietary changes (including a FODMAP diet), stress reduction strategies, and medications to alleviate discomfort and regulate bowel movements.
We employ imaging studies, diagnostic colonoscopy, and individualised medical therapy for accurate evaluation. Management approach includes biologics and immunosuppressants to induce and maintain remission.
We perform ultrasound elastography (FibroScan), liver function tests, and viral screenings to detect conditions like fatty liver, hepatitis B/C, and cirrhosis. Treatment consists of lifestyle modification, antiviral therapy, and nutritional support to avoid liver failure and enhance outcomes.
We offer accurate diagnoses via enzyme evaluations, sophisticated imaging (CT/MRI), and supportive care — including pain management, IV fluids, and nutrition therapy. For chronic conditions, we focus on improving pancreatic function and preventing flare-ups.
We examine ultrasound-based diagnoses and work together with surgical teams when removal (cholecystectomy) is needed. The treatment protocol also includes medication support and dietary changes.
We carefully examine using laboratory tests, colonoscopy, and motility studies to determine the causes. Treatment involves antidiarrheal medications, laxatives, and gut flora balancing measures for long-term relief.
We perform colonoscopy or diagnostic endoscopy for diagnosis. Immediate therapeutic interventions — like banding, cauterisation, or medical therapy — are offered to control and prevent bleeding safely.
We perform esophageal manometry and barium swallow studies to identify the problem. Treatment options — from dilation procedures to medications — are suggested to enhance oesophageal coordination.
Prior to any diagnostic or therapeutic procedures — such as colonoscopy, endoscopy, or liver biopsy — we make sure you’re well-informed and well-prepared.
This involves:
Our gastroenterology team and nursing staff will guide you through each step — making sure you're comfortable and at ease before the procedure.
After your procedure, we provide clear post-care instructions to support healing and prevent complications.
