Gastroenterology
CLRD is a trusted destination for comprehensive care in liver and gastrointestinal health. Our mission is to combine advanced medical technology with compassionate care, ensuring every patient feels supported throughout their treatment journey. At CLRD, we focus on early diagnosis, minimally invasive procedures, and innovative therapies to help patients achieve better outcomes and improved quality of life.
Therapeutic Endoscopy
Endoscopic procedures are often the first line of treatment for many complex digestive conditions, and Dr. Aejaz Habeeb is a recognized expert in this field. He performs advanced interventions such as endoscopic sclerotherapy and variceal banding to manage bleeding from esophageal varices, which can be life-threatening if untreated. For gastric varices, he uses fundal variceal glue injection, a highly specialized technique that prevents recurrent bleeding. Patients with achalasia benefit from pneumatic dilatation, which helps restore normal swallowing function. Additionally, Dr. Habeeb treats esophageal strictures through dilatation, manages pancreatic fluid collections with endoscopic cystogastrostomy, and ensures safe removal of foreign bodies from the digestive tract all with a focus on patient comfort and quick recovery.
Diagnostic and Therapeutic ERCP
ERCP is a critical procedure for diagnosing and treating bile duct and pancreatic disorders. Dr. Habeeb offers comprehensive ERCP services, including stenting of the common bile duct (CBD) and pancreatic ducts to relieve obstructions and prevent complications. He performs stone extraction to clear blockages and uses endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided techniques for advanced interventions such as pancreatic pseudocyst drainage, lymph node and pancreatic biopsies for accurate diagnosis, and coeliac plexus block to manage severe abdominal pain. These procedures are performed with precision, reducing hospital stays and improving patient outcomes.
Advanced GI Procedures
For patients with unexplained gastrointestinal bleeding or conditions like Crohn’s disease, Dr. Habeeb utilizes double balloon enteroscopy, an advanced technique that allows deep access to the small intestine. He also performs percutaneous endoscopic liver biopsies, which provide accurate tissue samples with minimal discomfort. To assess functional disorders, Dr. Habeeb conducts GI motility studies, including esophageal and ano-rectal manometry, helping patients understand and manage conditions like chronic constipation, reflux, and swallowing difficulties.
Liver Disease Management
Liver diseases require specialized care, and Dr. Habeeb offers a full spectrum of services for conditions such as hepatitis B and C, cirrhosis, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). His approach includes early detection, lifestyle guidance, and advanced medical therapies. For patients requiring liver transplantation, Dr. Habeeb ensures thorough evaluation and provides dedicated post-transplant care, focusing on long-term health and well-being.
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Living with inflammatory bowel diseases like ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease can be overwhelming. Dr. Habeeb provides personalized treatment plans that aim to control inflammation, reduce flare-ups, and prevent complications. His goal is to help patients regain control of their lives through a combination of medication, dietary guidance, and advanced therapies.
Stem Cell Research
Dr. Habeeb is at the forefront of regenerative medicine, leading clinical trials in stem cell therapy for advanced liver diseases. His pioneering work in autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation offers hope for patients with limited treatment options. These innovative therapies aim to regenerate damaged liver tissue, opening new possibilities for recovery and improved quality of life.
