Pediatric Gastroenterology

Pediatric Gastroenterology is a rapidly evolving subspecialty of pediatrics, and Metropolitan Hospital offers a fully specialized department for the diagnosis and treatment of digestive system disorders in children. The department is equipped with advanced endoscopic technology and staffed by experienced, highly trained medical professionals capable of responsibly and promptly managing even complex cases. Aiming for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment, the department combines cutting-edge technology with personalized care for each child, providing a safe and welcoming environment for young patients and their families.

In recent years, pediatricians have paid special attention to infants and children with gastrointestinal issues, such as constipation, chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, or growth difficulties, and seek timely evaluation by specialists. Additionally, parents who adopt a healthier lifestyle for themselves and their children often seek guidance on the latest recommendations regarding nutrition, both as a preventive measure and, in some cases, as an alternative therapeutic approach.

The activities of the Pediatric Gastroenterology Department cover the full spectrum of modern pediatric gastroenterology and interventional endoscopy. Specifically, the department includes the following areas:

• Routine pediatric gastroenterology clinic
• Digestive physiology clinic
• Endoscopy laboratory
