Gastroenterology
The Gastroenterology service provides confidential, remote consultations for a wide range of digestive health concerns. Licensed gastroenterologists from Tibbi Telemed’s partner clinics will assess your symptoms, review your medical history, and create personalized care plans to help you manage and prevent digestive issues.
This service covers common and chronic gastrointestinal conditions such as acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), constipation, liver concerns, and other gut-related problems. Telemedicine makes it easy to access specialist advice, review lab results, adjust treatment plans, and receive dietary guidance without needing frequent in-person visits.
However, please note that some gastrointestinal conditions may require in-person exams, diagnostic tests such as endoscopy, or imaging. Your specialist will advise you on any necessary next steps.

Limitations of Service
Scope
This service is designed for non-emergency digestive concerns that can be managed remotely. Urgent symptoms like severe abdominal pain, bleeding, or sudden weight loss require immediate in-person care.
Diagnostic Limitations
Certain diagnoses may need procedures such as endoscopy, colonoscopy, or imaging tests that cannot be performed remotely.
Not for Emergencies
This service is not appropriate for severe or life-threatening digestive conditions. Seek urgent care if you have acute or worsening symptoms.
Photo or Document Submissions
You may be asked to share lab results or previous test reports. You agree to provide clear, accurate information if requested.
Not a Replacement for In-Person Gastroenterology
This service complements, but does not replace, hands-on diagnostics and treatment when necessary.
