Gastroenterologist — what to know

A gastroenterologist deals with the digestive system — the oesophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, gallbladder and pancreas. People see one for persistent heartburn or abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, changes in bowel habits, and for a screening gastroscopy or colonoscopy.

What happens at the visit

The gastroenterologist asks about your complaints, your diet and your medicines and examines your abdomen. When needed, they order blood tests, an abdominal ultrasound, a gastroscopy or a colonoscopy and explain how to prepare for them.

Before the visit

Bring an identity document, the results of earlier tests and any discharge summaries, and a list of the medicines you take.

Bring the results of earlier ultrasounds, gastroscopies and colonoscopies. If a test is booked for you, ask in advance whether you need to fast.

Visits paid by НЗОК (NHIF)

A specialist visit paid by НЗОК (NHIF) usually needs a referral from your GP; a referral is valid for 30 days. A paid visit is possible without one. Whether the doctor sees НЗОК patients, which health funds they work with and the price are on their profile.
