What are the common diseases treated in the Department of Gastroenterology?
Disease description:
I’ve always had poor gastrointestinal health, and I previously experienced some GI issues. Could you please tell me what common diseases are treated in the Department of Gastroenterology?
The Department of Gastroenterology manages a wide range of common diseases, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastritis, gastric ulcers, duodenal ulcers, gastric cancer, fatty liver disease, hepatitis, enteritis, colorectal cancer, Crohn’s disease, and others. In current clinical practice, gastroenterology has been further subdivided, with certain conditions—such as some liver and biliary disorders or colorectal diseases—reassigned to specialized departments including Hepatobiliary Surgery, General Surgery, and Proctology. Patients experiencing digestive dysfunction should seek medical attention promptly and receive appropriate, systematic treatment to prevent complications. We hope this information is helpful. Wishing you good health!
