Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Gastrointestinal care with Dr. Mitali Agarwal:

What is a Gastroenterologist?
Dr. Agarwal is a gastroenterologist, a specialist physician trained to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the digestive system, including the esophagus, stomach, intestines, colon, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. They are experts in performing preventive screenings like colonoscopies.
When should I get my first screening colonoscopy?
For average-risk individuals, routine screening colonoscopies are now recommended to begin at age 45. However, individuals with a family history of colon cancer or other risk factors may need to start earlier. Dr. Agarwal will determine the best, personalized screening schedule for you.
What is 'fatty liver disease' and is it serious?
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a very common condition often linked to metabolic health issues like obesity and diabetes. Fortunately, in its early stages, it can often be reversed with lifestyle changes. However, managing it is crucial to prevent progression to more serious liver damage such as cirrhosis.
I have frequent heartburn. When should I be concerned?
While occasional heartburn is common, frequent or worsening symptoms (more than twice a week) should prompt a visit. This could be a sign of GERD, which, if left untreated, can lead to more serious problems. Dr. Agarwal can diagnose the cause and create an effective treatment plan.
What is Celiac Disease?
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder where consuming gluten, a protein found in wheat, triggers damage to the lining of the small intestine. It's different from a simple gluten sensitivity, and a proper diagnosis from a gastroenterologist is crucial before starting a gluten-free diet.
What is the difference between a colonoscopy and an upper endoscopy (EGD)?
A colonoscopy examines the large intestine (colon) to screen for colon cancer, while an upper endoscopy (EGD) examines the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine to diagnose issues like heartburn, ulcers, or difficulty swallowing.
What is the role of diet in managing IBS?
Diet plays a crucial role in managing IBS. Dr. Agarwal can help identify trigger foods and recommend dietary approaches, like the low FODMAP diet, to significantly reduce symptoms like bloating, gas, and abdominal pain.
Can hemorrhoids be treated without surgery?
Yes, most hemorrhoids can be effectively managed with lifestyle and diet changes. For persistent internal hemorrhoids, Dr. Agarwal can perform simple, painless in-office procedures like hemorrhoid banding.
