General Surgical Procedures
Upper GI Endoscopy

Upper GI endoscopy examines the oesophagus, stomach, and first part of the small intestine using a flexible camera. Find out how the procedure is performed, how to prepare, and what you may experience.

Colonoscopy

A colonoscopy allows your doctor to examine the entire large intestine to identify conditions such as polyps, inflammation, bleeding, or other abnormalities. Learn how to prepare and what happens during the procedure.

A sigmoidoscopy examines the lower part of the large intestine using a thin, flexible camera. Learn about the procedure, preparation, what to expect, and possible risks.

ETT (Treadmill/ Stress Test)

An Exercise ECG records your heart's electrical activity while you exercise, helping assess how your heart responds to physical stress. Learn about the test, preparation, and what your results may indicate.

Holter Monitoring

Ambulatory BP monitoring measures your blood pressure at regular intervals over 24 hours while you go about your usual activities. Learn how the monitor works and why your doctor may recommend it.
