What a gastroenterology clinic treats

Gastroenterologists manage the digestive system, including the oesophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas and gallbladder. Common concerns are acid reflux and heartburn, irritable bowel syndrome, abdominal pain, persistent diarrhoea or constipation, bloating, and liver conditions such as fatty liver and hepatitis. These clinics also perform diagnostic and screening endoscopy and colonoscopy, which can detect ulcers, inflammation, polyps and early cancers. Consider a visit for ongoing digestive symptoms, unexplained weight loss, blood in the stool, or when you reach the age for routine colorectal cancer screening.

How to choose a gastroenterology clinic in Singapore

  • Confirm the doctor is registered with the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) and on the Register of Specialists for gastroenterology where appropriate.
  • Check that endoscopy is performed in an accredited facility with proper sedation and monitoring.
  • Look for clear guidance on screening intervals and follow-up.
  • Consider hospital affiliation, accessibility and appointment availability.

Getting there

Many private gastroenterology and endoscopy clinics are found in the Orchard medical belt (around Orchard MRT) and the Novena health-city belt (Novena MRT, near Tan Tock Seng and Mount Elizabeth Novena). Subsidised endoscopy and care are available at the restructured hospitals and polyclinics across the island. Check each clinic’s own address and nearest MRT or parking before your visit, and note any pre-procedure preparation instructions.

Costs and financing

Fees differ between public or subsidised and private settings. A GP or polyclinic referral may help with subsidies. MediSave, MediShield Life and Integrated Shield Plans may apply to eligible procedures such as colonoscopy within set limits, and national screening programmes may reduce the cost of approved tests. Routine consultations are often out of pocket. Confirm fees and claimability with the clinic.

Common questions

When should I start colorectal cancer screening?

Screening is generally recommended from middle age, and earlier if you have symptoms or a family history. Your doctor can advise on the right test and interval for you.

Is sedation used for colonoscopy?

Sedation is commonly offered to keep the procedure comfortable. The clinic will explain the options and any preparation, including dietary and bowel preparation steps.

Are endoscopy procedures claimable?

Eligible endoscopic procedures may be supported by MediSave or insurance within limits, while routine consultations are often paid out of pocket. Confirm details with the clinic.
