What is Paediatric Gastroenterology

Paediatric gastroenterology is a specialised field of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of digestive system disorders in children, from infancy through adolescence. Paediatric gastroenterologists are trained to address a wide range of issues, including chronic stomach pain, constipation, diarrhoea, gastroesophageal reflux, food allergies, celiac disease, inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, and liver diseases. They understand the unique aspects of children’s digestive systems and provide tailored treatments that promote good digestion, nutrition, and overall health.

  • gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
  • constipation
  • diarrhoea
