Our Medical Team

Endoscopy is a procedure where a specialist doctor places a small flexible tube with a light source and a video camera at the end to examine the gastrointestinal tract. The gastrointestinal tract can be examined via the mouth or the anus.

This test is frequently performed in patients who have problems such as:

  • Abdominal pain or discomfort
  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Loss of appetite
  • Blood detected in the stools (e.g. positive stool occult blood test)
  • A change in their bowel habits
  • Chronic constipation
  • Persistent diarrhea
  • Anaemia (low blood count)

Endoscopy is also performed as a screening test for patients who are at risk of stomach cancer or colon cancer. A screening colonoscopy is recommended for the average-risk adult who is 50 years old and above. Anyone who has a strong family history of colon cancer, such as a first or second degree relative with the illness, should commence colon cancer screening at an earlier age. e.g. from 40 years old.

Endoscopic procedures performed at Admiralty Medical Centre include:

  • Gastroscopy (also known as Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy) – A procedure to check the oesophagus, stomach and upper portion of the small intestine for inflammation, cancer or infection.
  • Colonoscopy – A procedure to check the big intestine (colon) for abnormalities such as polyps and cancer.
  • Hemorrhoidal Ligation – A procedure to treat bleeding piles.
  • Polypectomy – A procedure to remove polyps which are found during endoscopy.

Allied-Health

Acupuncture is based on the concepts of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It serves to maintain good health as well as to treat medical conditions by returning the body to its dynamic state of balance.

A wide variety of acute and chronic conditions can be managed by acupuncture. It can be used to treat musculoskeletal and pain related conditions, digestive problems, neurological conditions, stress related disorders and also to maintain good health.

Our Services

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a widely-used treatment in TCM. It helps to maintain good health and treat various medical conditions by restoring the body's state of balance. Needles are inserted at specific acu-points to stimulate the body’s natural healing responses. Research has shown that acupuncture can improve blood circulation and trigger the release of natural painkillers.

Vacuum Cupping

Vacuum cupping is a complementary therapeutic technique where plastic cups are used to apply suction on the body in accordance to the concepts of TCM. This opens up the pores, promotes blood circulation, removes toxins and realigns energy in the body. Vacuum cupping eliminates the risk of burns which comes with traditional flame cupping.
