Achievements & Roles
Procedure Information
Bariatric (Weight Loss) Surgery▼
Bariatric surgery is offered as a sub-specialty service by Dr Tiffany Hassen through the Adelaide Bariatric Centre. No further procedural details are provided on this website.
Gastroscopy▼
Enables the lining of the upper GI tract (oesophagus, stomach and duodenum) to be examined for abnormalities. Some abnormalities can be treated during the procedure. It may be used to investigate symptoms including bleeding, abdominal pain, heartburn/reflux, swallowing difficulties, and nausea.
Colonoscopy▼
The colonoscope is moved through the colon to view its lining. Prior to colonoscopy, the bowel needs to be cleared of faeces involving a modified diet and consuming bowel prep (laxatives). It may be used to investigate an altered bowel habit, abdominal pain, bleeding, and iron deficiency anaemia.
