Since 2004, I have been working in the Team for Paediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition and take care of inpatient and outpatient children with gastrointestinal diseases (inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease or intestinal failure requiring long-term parenteral nutrition), patients with congenital, acute or chronic liver disease and after liver transplantation.
I have performed >500 upper endoscopies, 25 upper endoscopies including banding of varices, 25 upper endoscopies including PEG, 440 lower endoscopies, 7 colonoscopies including polypectomies, and 27 liver biopsies.
I am an active researcher in the area, I speak at international conferences and am a reviewer for several medical journals.
I appreciate quick answer. Also this answer confirmed previous approach how to treat my diagnosis setup by a local specialist.
Very useful information.
