Diagnostic & Therapeutic Endoscopy · LASUTH, Lagos
Clear answers.
Specialist treatment.
Zendale Endoscopy investigates digestive problems and provides treatment through appropriate endoscopic procedures. Consultant-led care at Ayinke House, LASUTH, with clear explanations and connected follow-up.
Endoscopy turns the dark into a picture you can trust.
Too many gut problems in Lagos are carried for months on guesswork and repeat prescriptions, and too many serious ones are found late. An endoscope changes that: a light and a camera reach the exact spot, and a question you have lived with becomes something we can see, name, and often fix on the spot.
Follow the scope, stop by stop.
Pick a region to see what it does, the symptoms that bring people in, how we examine it, and when a symptom is worth acting on. This is the same path the camera travels.
Upper GIOesophagus
The tube that carries food from your throat to your stomach. When the valve at its base leaks, acid climbs back up; over years that can inflame or scar the lining.
Symptoms we see
- Heartburn that keeps returning
- Food or pills that stick going down
- Acid or a sour taste at night
- Chest discomfort after meals
How we look & when to act
- We examine it with a gastroscopy, a slim camera through the mouth
- Biopsies taken painlessly if the lining looks changed
- Act sooner if swallowing is getting harder, or food sticks
Specialist care, clearly explained.
Explore each examination, how to prepare and what happens next.
Gastroscopy
A short look at the oesophagus, stomach and upper small bowel through the mouth. Minutes long, and it answers what months of antacids cannot.
Colonoscopy
A full examination of the large bowel, and the best test for catching bowel cancer early by removing polyps before they turn.
ERCP
A specialised procedure that clears stones and blockages in the bile duct through the gut, relieving jaundice without open surgery.
Screening colonoscopy
The same procedure used to prevent cancer, not just find it, by clearing the polyps it would have grown from.

Understand your concern
Persistent heartburn
A burning feeling in the chest or a sour taste can occur when stomach acid comes back up. Repeated symptoms deserve a review rather than endless self-treatment.
Professional review: Arrange a review if it happens most days, treatment is not helping, or you also lose weight or have difficulty swallowing.
