Dr. Ankit Anand – Best Gastroenterologist in Jalandhar

Best Gastroenterologist in Phagwara

There is no gastroenterology clinic in Phagwara, and this page will not pretend otherwise. What Phagwara does have is the easiest run into Jalandhar of any town nearby — straight down NH44. Here is exactly how that trip works, and what is worth doing before you set off.

Getting here

Three ways to make the trip

Honest averages for an ordinary day, not a promise. Add twenty minutes on a Monday evening, and more in fog season.

Your own vehicle or a taxi

35–45 min

Straight down NH44. GastroNova is inside the city at GTB Nagar; Innocent Hearts sits on Nakodar Road, which means crossing town. For the evening OPD, leave Phagwara before 5.

Bus

45–60 min

Buses run continuously between Phagwara and Jalandhar — it is the busiest stretch of NH44 in Doaba. From the bus stand, GTB Nagar is a short auto ride.

Train

20–30 min

Phagwara Junction to Jalandhar City is a short hop, and often the fastest option. Take an auto from the station. Not the choice on a scope day — after sedation you should not travel alone.

Every town is a different journey, so each of these pages says something different. None of them repeat this one.

One thing that does not need the trip

Hepatolean reaches Phagwara on its own

Dr. Ankit also formulated Hepatolean Advance Liver Pro+, a sugar-free liver-care protein sold on a separate site, hepatolean.com. It ships to Phagwara, so nobody needs to drive 23 km for it. Worth being plain though: it is a nutrition product, not a substitute for a consultation or a test. A liver report still has to be looked at in person.

Questions

Asked at the desk, most days

Is there a gastroenterology clinic in Phagwara?
Not this one. Both centres are in Jalandhar — GastroNova Clinic at GTB Nagar and Innocent Hearts Hospital on Nakodar Road, each about 23 km from Phagwara. Any page claiming a clinic in Phagwara is not being straight with you.
Can I come and go on the same day?
Yes, and most people do. A consultation is a trip of under an hour each way. Even a scope is usually same-day discharge — the one catch is that you cannot drive yourself home after sedation, so bring someone.
Which centre should I come to?
For a consultation or a FibroScan, GastroNova at GTB Nagar — 5 to 8 pm on weekdays and 9 to 11 am on Sunday. For an endoscopy, colonoscopy or anything needing admission, Innocent Hearts on Nakodar Road — 10 to 5, with a 24×7 Gastro ICU.
Is anything different for students at LPU?
The treatment is no different, but the complaint often is. Hostel food, irregular hours, and months of acidity or loose motions already suppressed with over-the-counter tablets. Bring the strips of whatever you have been taking — painkillers and antacids in particular show up clearly on a scope.
Should I get tests done in Phagwara first?
If a doctor has already asked for blood tests or an ultrasound, get them done in Phagwara and bring the reports. It often saves an entire second trip. The scope itself has to happen in Jalandhar, because it needs a procedure room and ICU backup.
Where to come

Two centres, one doctor

OPD hours are different at each. Check before you travel — and bring every old report you have, even the ones you think are useless.
