Gastro Diagnostic Evaluation — What to Expect
A structured clinical workup combining detailed history, examination, blood tests, imaging, and endoscopic investigations — tailored to your specific symptoms to reach an accurate diagnosis efficiently.
Anyone with chronic abdominal pain, persistent diarrhoea, GERD, unexplained weight loss, anaemia, abnormal liver tests, blood in stool, or complex GI symptoms without a clear diagnosis.
After thorough consultation, Dr. Ankit designs a targeted investigation plan — scheduling blood tests, FibroScan, endoscopy, or colonoscopy in the most efficient sequence to minimise delays and repeat visits.
A clear diagnosis, treatment plan, and follow-up schedule — not just a list of tests. Dr. Ankit personally reviews and explains every result and what it means for your treatment.
Symptoms That Need a Proper Gastro Evaluation
Many patients in Jalandhar self-medicate with antacids or general physician advice for years — without a proper specialist evaluation. These symptoms warrant a structured workup.
Components of a GastroNova Diagnostic Evaluation
Dr. Ankit Anand selects the most relevant investigations for your specific symptoms — avoiding unnecessary tests and ensuring nothing critical is missed.
Clinical Consultation
Detailed symptom history, dietary patterns, medication review, family history, and physical examination — the foundation of every evaluation. Dr. Ankit takes 20–30 minutes for a first consultation, not 5.
Targeted Blood Panel
Liver function tests (LFT), complete blood count, iron studies, CRP, H. pylori antibody, thyroid function, celiac markers (anti-tTG), and stool tests — ordered based on the clinical picture, not as a blanket panel.
Abdominal Ultrasound
First-line imaging for liver size and echogenicity, gallbladder stones, bile duct dilation, pancreatic assessment, and organomegaly. Quick, non-invasive, and available same day in most cases.
FibroScan — Liver
FibroScan at GastroNova Clinic, GTB Nagar — non-invasive liver stiffness and fat measurement for accurate staging of fatty liver disease, fibrosis, and cirrhosis without biopsy. Same-day results.
Upper GI Endoscopy
Endoscopy at Innocent Hearts Hospital under sedation — for GERD, peptic ulcers, H. pylori, dysphagia, GI bleeding, oesophageal disease, and biopsies. HD imaging with therapeutic capability.
Colonoscopy
Colonoscopy at Innocent Hearts Hospital — for blood in stool, altered bowel habits, IBD evaluation, polyp detection, and colorectal cancer screening. Polypectomy performed in the same session if needed.

Patients Who Finally Got Their Diagnosis at GastroNova Clinic
I had elevated SGPT for 2 years and no doctor could tell me what was wrong. Dr. Ankit did a FibroScan at GastroNova Clinic and diagnosed Grade 2 Fatty Liver with early fibrosis. He gave me a clear recovery plan — diet, lifestyle, and medication. My liver tests are now completely normal. I finally have an answer and a solution.
Teen saal se mujhe IBS bata ke antacids de rahe the. Dr. Ankit ne proper evaluation ki — colonoscopy aur biopsy — aur Ulcerative Colitis diagnose ki. Sahi ilaj se ab 6 months se koi problem nahi. Pehle doctor ne samjha hi nahi tha ki asl problem kya hai. Dr. Ankit ne sab badal diya.
I came for evaluation due to family history of colon cancer. Dr. Ankit recommended colonoscopy and found and removed two polyps on the same day. He explained the biopsy results clearly and set up a surveillance schedule. Caught early because of a thorough evaluation. I'm grateful for his proactive approach — this could have been a very different story.
Gastro Diagnostic Evaluation — Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in a gastro diagnostic evaluation at GastroNova Clinic?
It starts with a detailed consultation — Dr. Ankit takes a thorough history, examines you, and reviews any prior investigations. Based on your symptoms, he then designs a targeted investigation plan. This may include blood tests, FibroScan, ultrasound, upper endoscopy, or colonoscopy — whichever is most relevant. Not everything for every patient — just what your specific clinical picture requires. Most non-invasive investigations can be completed within 1–2 visits.
What should I bring to my first gastro evaluation?
Bring all previous blood test reports, ultrasound reports, endoscopy or colonoscopy reports (if any), a list of all current medications with doses, and a clear description of your symptoms — how long they have been present, what makes them better or worse, and any pattern you have noticed. The more information you bring, the more Dr. Ankit can tailor the evaluation — avoiding repeat investigations you have already had.
Can I get a FibroScan on the same day as my consultation?
Yes. FibroScan is available at GastroNova Clinic, GTB Nagar, Jalandhar — and can usually be performed on the same day as your consultation if indicated. It takes about 10 minutes, requires no fasting, and results are available immediately. It is the most accurate non-invasive test for liver fat and fibrosis and replaces the need for a liver biopsy in most cases.
How is Dr. Ankit's evaluation different from seeing a general physician?
A general physician's knowledge of gastroenterology is broad but not deep. They can manage simple acidity and refer you for standard tests — but when results are borderline, when symptoms are complex, or when an endoscopy finding needs expert interpretation, a DrNB-qualified specialist like Dr. Ankit is essential. He can personally perform and interpret the endoscopy, read the FibroScan, correlate the biopsy with clinical findings, and create a subspecialty-level treatment plan — all in the same clinic.
Do I need a referral or can I book directly?
No referral is required. You can book directly by calling +91 73470 58754 or WhatsApp. OPD timings at GastroNova Clinic, GTB Nagar, Jalandhar: Monday to Saturday 5 PM–9 PM, Sunday 9 AM–11 AM.
