Dealing with digestive issues or facing a routine screening can feel overwhelming. At Precision Upper GI Surgery in Sydney, I understand. I specialise in advanced gastroscopy and colonoscopy procedures, using the latest technology to provide clear diagnoses and effective care.
My dedicated, patient-centred approach ensures clear communication and prioritises procedural comfort throughout your experience. Allow me to provide the necessary endoscopic evaluation for your digestive health management.
A gastroscopy, often called an upper endoscopy, is a highly effective procedure allowing me as a specialist to carefully examine the lining of your oesophagus, stomach, and the first part of your small intestine (duodenum). Using a thin, flexible tube with a high-definition camera, I get detailed views to accurately identify conditions such as:
Patients across Sydney trust me because I offer:
My high-definition imaging provides exceptionally clear views for precise identification of any concerns.
Performed as a straightforward day procedure under comfortable sedation managed by specialist anaesthetists, ensuring you remain relaxed.
I can often take tissue samples (biopsies) or perform minor treatments during the gastroscopy, potentially avoiding further procedures.
Your results are meticulously analysed by myself, a leading Sydney gastroenterological specialist, providing you with timely and accurate information.
A colonoscopy provides the most thorough examination of your entire large intestine (colon and rectum). It’s the gold standard for investigating symptoms like bowel changes, rectal bleeding, or abdominal pain, and crucially, for colorectal cancer screening. My expert use of colonoscopy aims to:
Detect and remove polyps (small growths that can become cancerous) during the procedure, significantly lowering your risk.
Identify issues like Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), including Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.
Find the cause of unexplained bleeding or anaemia.
Detect colorectal cancer early, when treatment is most successful.
Opting for a colonoscopy at my dedicated clinic provides significant benefits for your diagnosis, treatment, and long-term health:
Removing polyps is one of the most effective ways to prevent colorectal cancer.
State-of-the-art, high-resolution scopes ensure a detailed examination of your entire colon.
I use carefully managed sedation options administered by specialist anaesthetists to ensure a comfortable, anxiety-free experience.
Entrust your care to a highly regarded specialist with extensive experience performing precise colonoscopies.

I know medical procedures can cause anxiety. From clear explanations before your procedure to comfortable sedation and attentive aftercare, your positive experience is my priority.
Gastroscopy and colonoscopy are key parts of my diagnostic services. If further treatment is needed, I ensure a smooth transition from diagnosis to a personalised treatment plan.
As a Sydney-based gastroenterologist and upper GI surgeon, I am a leader in my field, committed to providing evidence-based care tailored to your unique needs.
Feeling nervous about an upcoming gastroscopy or colonoscopy is completely understandable. Please rest assured, you are in exceptionally capable and caring hands here. I prioritise clear, open communication, ensuring you understand every step.
My team uses gentle techniques, advanced monitoring, and expertly administered sedation to make your procedure as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible. Whether you need answers for worrying symptoms or proactive screening for long-term health, I provide the expert care and reassurance you deserve.
A gastroscopy examines your upper digestive tract (oesophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine), often to investigate symptoms like reflux or stomach pain. A colonoscopy examines your large intestine (colon and rectum), primarily for investigating bowel changes or for colorectal cancer screening.
These procedures are essential for accurately diagnosing a range of digestive conditions, investigating symptoms like abdominal pain, bleeding, or changes in bowel habits, and crucially, for preventing or detecting serious diseases like colorectal cancer through screening.
Preparation varies depending on whether you are having a gastroscopy or colonoscopy. You will receive detailed, clear instructions tailored to your specific procedure. This may involve dietary adjustments and bowel preparation for a colonoscopy.
Your comfort is a top priority. Both gastroscopy and colonoscopy are typically performed under comfortable sedation managed by specialist anaesthetists, meaning most patients experience no pain during the procedure. You may feel some bloating afterwards, which usually subsides quickly. I use gentle techniques and advanced monitoring to make the experience as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible.
Both are straightforward day procedures. The procedure itself is relatively quick. Recovery time is generally short, primarily allowing the effects of sedation to wear off. You will receive post-procedure care guidelines, including dietary recommendations and when to seek help if needed.
If polyps (small growths that can become cancerous) are found during your colonoscopy, they can often be detected and removed immediately during the same procedure. This is a key way that colonoscopy prevents colorectal cancer.
If any abnormalities are found, tissue samples (biopsies) can often be taken during the procedure for detailed analysis. Your results will be meticulously analysed by myself, and a personalised treatment plan will be discussed with you based on the findings. I ensure a smooth transition from diagnosis to appropriate care if further treatment is needed.
You can trust my extensive experience as a Sydney-based gastroenterologist and upper GI surgeon, utilising the latest endoscopic equipment for unmatched diagnostic accuracy. I prioritise your comfort and safety with expert sedation and compassionate care throughout your journey.
