Upper Endoscopy: EGD

Frequent bouts of indigestion or difficulty swallowing can be signs of serious illness. An Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) provides a visual examination of your esophagus, stomach, and part of the small intestine. Your doctor may perform this procedure to diagnosis or treat the cause of your symptoms. To find out how to prepare, view the EGD video.
