About the Procedure
Safe, Minimally Invasive Endoscopy in Gadag-Betageri
Persistent acidity, unexplained stomach pain, or difficulty swallowing shouldn't be guessed at — they deserve a clear look inside. Endoscopy lets your gastroenterologist see exactly what's happening, and act on it the same day.
See What's Really Going On. A thin, flexible camera examines the food pipe, stomach, or intestine directly, so treatment is based on what's actually there — not just symptoms.
Comfort First. Numbing spray or mild sedation keeps the procedure comfortable, and most patients are back to normal activity within a few hours.
Every visit includes a gastroenterologist-led review, on-site endoscopy with same-day biopsy reports where needed, and WhatsApp support for questions after the procedure — so recovery never feels like guesswork.
Know the Warning Signs
When your stomach needs urgent attention
Most digestive discomfort is mild and passes on its own — which is exactly why regular check-ups matter. But some patterns need an endoscopy and care right away.
Emergency Reminder
Call emergency services if you vomit blood or pass black, tarry stools.
Severe abdominal pain, sudden difficulty swallowing, repeated vomiting, or unexplained weight loss need immediate medical attention — don't wait it out at home.
Patterns Worth Checking
Signs worth a gastroenterologist's attention.
- Frequent acidity or acid reflux
- Recurring stomach or abdominal pain

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what most patients in Gadag-Betageri ask before their first endoscopy — no medical jargon.
Aashraya Hospital in Gadag brings together a dedicated gastroenterologist and an on-site endoscopy suite, so acidity, ulcers, bleeding and stomach pain can all be evaluated and treated in one place. Your findings are explained the same day, in plain language.
Most patients feel little to no pain. A numbing spray or mild sedation is used so you stay comfortable, and the scope itself is thin and flexible. Some throat discomfort or bloating for a few hours afterward is normal.
An upper GI endoscopy usually takes 10 to 15 minutes, and a colonoscopy around 20 to 30 minutes. You'll need extra time before for preparation and after for recovery from sedation, so plan for a couple of hours at the hospital.
Yes — you'll usually be asked to avoid food for 6 to 8 hours before an upper GI endoscopy, and to follow a special bowel-prep diet before a colonoscopy. Your doctor gives you exact instructions when the procedure is booked.
An upper GI endoscopy examines the food pipe, stomach and the start of the small intestine through the mouth. A colonoscopy examines the large intestine through the rectum. Your gastroenterologist recommends one or both based on your symptoms.
See a gastroenterologist if you have persistent acidity, difficulty swallowing, unexplained weight loss, ongoing abdominal pain, or blood in vomit or stool. Occasional mild indigestion usually doesn't need a specialist visit.
Sedation is offered for comfort and is optional for most upper GI endoscopies, though it's commonly used for colonoscopy. Your gastroenterologist discusses the options with you before the procedure so you can choose what feels right.
Procedure and test charges are shared clearly before you're billed — nothing hidden, no surprise costs. Call us or message on WhatsApp and our team will tell you the exact charges for your procedure before you visit.
