Speciality And Areas Of Interest
1) Biliary disease:
- Bile duct stones: Endoscopic removal of large, hard, difficult to remove stone using Spyglass and Electrohydraulic lithotripsy.
- Bile duct strictures: Endoscopic management of bile duct narrowing due to conditions boil post gallbladder surgery, pancreatitis, portal biliopathy etc., causing obstruction to the flow of oils and jaundice. These are managed by endoscopic treatment by placing multiple plastic stents and/ or by placing retrievable metal stents.
- Bile duct cancer: Obtaining tissue from bile duct cancer using Spyglass Technology and also providing relief of jaundice by placing plastic or metal stent across the bile duct block caused by the tumors.
2) Pancreatic diseases:
- Endoscopic treatment of pain due to chronic pancreatitis by performing pancreatic endotherapy (removal of pancreatic stones/dilatation of the pancreatic duct stricture and placement of stents).
- Endoscopic/minimally invasive treatment of acute pancreatitis and its related complications like
- ERCP for bile duct stone causing obstruction.
- Drainage of fluid collection.
- Endoscopic drainage of pseudo cyst.
- Endoscopic placement of stent across the leaking pancreatic duct.
3) GI cancers:
- Early diagnosis by using state of the art, high definition technology (EVIS X1 system): which improves visibility of precancerous lesions, hence lowering the missing rates especially for flat lesions.
- Placing stents for palliative treatment of gastrointestinal cancers:
- Oesophageal stent for relief of difficult swallowing in oesophageal cancers.
- Antral stent for gastric cancer patients with vomiting.
- Colonic stent for colonic cancer patients with difficulty to pass stool.

I was hunting for a good dentist for quite some time. Since my earlier experience was not so good. So I was very much skeptical for trusting a new doctor again. I found Dr Meeka on Practo and gone through the reviews that were amazing and very positive. So to gave it a try, I went to her. In my first meeting only I was very much sure that my search had just ended here, not just for this treatment but for a lifetime now. She is very patient and will explain everything in detail to ensure that you are equally knowledgeable and satisfied I was hunting for a good dentist for quite some time.
