What Does a Gastroenterologist Do?
A gastroenterologist is a medical specialist who focuses on the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and related organs, including the oesophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, intestines, and rectum. These specialists are trained to manage both common and complex digestive conditions, from gastritis and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) to liver disease and colorectal cancer screening.
At Juanda Leo Gastroenterology Liver Clinic, we combine advanced diagnostic technology with a patient-first approach to provide accurate assessments and personalised care plans.
Common Symptoms You Should Not Ignore
Some digestive issues are temporary and harmless, but others can signal underlying medical conditions that need expert care. Here are key symptoms that warrant a consultation with a gastroenterologist:
- Bloating and gas that persist after meals or worsen over time
- Heartburn or acid reflux occurring more than twice a week
- Chronic abdominal pain or cramping
- Diarrhoea, constipation, or changes in bowel habits
- Unexplained weight loss or loss of appetite
- Blood in stool or black, tarry stools
- Jaundice or yellowing of the skin and eyes
These could indicate conditions such as gastritis, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or cancers.

Whether you need a gastroscopy to investigate stomach pain or a colonoscopy for preventive screening, Dr Juanda ensures that every procedure is performed with precision and patient comfort in mind.
Why Early Diagnosis Matters
Many digestive conditions, if caught early, can be managed effectively or even reversed. Delaying care may lead to complications, such as chronic inflammation, nutritional deficiencies, or increased risk of gastrointestinal cancers.
