Digestion.
Our special examinations.
Stomach ache, nausea, a feeling of fullness, bloating, diarrhea or constipation are the most frequent signs that all is not well in our digestive system. If the symptoms do not clear up quickly, but occur repeatedly over weeks and months, you should get yourself tested thoroughly by a specialist doctor to rule out serious illness.
However, if routine testing does not show up any cause for the symptoms, modern laboratory testing can help to illuminate further aspects which are not addressed in standard diagnostics.
