Burning in the stomach, acidity that returns the moment you stop medication, or an ulcer confirmed on endoscopy — these need a cause-based diagnosis, not another antacid. Gastritis & Ulcer treatment in KPHB at Gokul Gastro & Liver Care, Kukatpally, starts by finding what is irritating the lining, with Dr. Viswanath Kamisetty (MD, DM Medical Gastroenterology).
Mon – Sat 10:00 AM – 9:00 PM · Sunday 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining; a peptic ulcer is the next stage, where the lining has broken down into an open sore. Both get labelled "gastric problem" or "acidity" — a fair description, but not a diagnosis. The same burning pain can come from H. pylori infection, painkillers, alcohol, bile reflux or an autoimmune process, each needing different treatment, which is why long-term antacid use often stops working.
Gastritis & Ulcer treatment in KPHB at our clinic begins with identifying the cause before anything is prescribed — left untreated, it can progress to bleeding or, in long-standing H. pylori infection, a higher risk of stomach cancer.
Occasional acidity after a heavy meal is normal. Symptoms that repeat weekly, wake you at night, or need daily medication are not — those are worth a consultation.
Upper abdominal burning or gnawing, often worse on an empty stomach or at night.
Reflux and sour taste that keeps returning once antacids are stopped.
Feeling sick after meals, sometimes with vomiting of undigested food.
Feeling full after only a few bites, with gas and belching.
Avoiding food because eating triggers pain, often with weight loss.
Black, tarry motions suggesting bleeding — needs urgent assessment.
Identifying which of these applies to you is the whole point of the first consultation.
The single most common cause of chronic gastritis and duodenal ulcers in India. It is curable with a defined antibiotic course, followed by a repeat test to confirm complete eradication.
Regular use of pain and anti-inflammatory tablets for joint or back pain erodes the stomach lining. Often the cause in patients who take them without a prescription.
Both increase acid output and weaken the protective mucus layer. Alcohol-related gastritis frequently coexists with liver disease, which we assess together.
Long gaps between meals, late dinners and night-shift work are common triggers in working patients across Kukatpally and KPHB.
Bile flowing back into the stomach, sometimes after gallbladder surgery. Needs a different prescription from standard acid suppression.
Less common, but important — the body attacks its own stomach lining, causing B12 deficiency and anaemia alongside the gastric symptoms.
A fixed sequence, in this order — each step decides whether the next one is needed.
Your symptoms, diet, alcohol intake and current medications — often enough to identify the cause.
Breath, stool or biopsy-based test to confirm infection before treatment starts.
A same-day camera examination of the food pipe, stomach and duodenum, done in-house.
A painless tissue sample during the same endoscopy to rule out malignancy.
Haemoglobin, B12 and liver function tests where relevant to your symptoms.
Proton pump inhibitors or H2 blockers for a defined period to let the lining heal — prescribed as a course with a review date, not as something you take indefinitely.
A combination antibiotic regimen taken exactly as prescribed, followed by a confirmatory test weeks later. Clearing the infection is what prevents the ulcer coming back.
Meal timing, trigger foods, alcohol and smoking. Written guidance you can follow — not a vague instruction to "eat light".
Bleeding points can be controlled during endoscopy using clips, injection or thermal therapy — avoiding surgery in the majority of cases.
Gastric ulcers are re-scoped after healing to confirm the ulcer has closed and the biopsy was benign. This step is often skipped elsewhere.
Where painkillers are the cause, we work with safer alternatives and add gastric protection so your joint pain treatment does not restart the ulcer.
Gastritis is treated by a super-specialist with a DM in Medical Gastroenterology and 13+ years managing GI and liver disease — including the endoscopy itself, done by the same doctor who consults with you.
Consultation, H. pylori testing and upper GI endoscopy happen at the same clinic in KPHB Colony. No referral chain, no second appointment across the city.
On 13th Phase Road, minutes from KPHB Colony, Kukatpally, JNTU, Nizampet, Bachupally and Miyapur. Open until 9 PM on weekdays for patients coming after work.
The aim is a completed course and a confirmed cure — not indefinite antacids. Where H. pylori is found, we retest to prove it has cleared.
