Digestive system

The Digestive System Service at Olympia Centro Médico Pozuelo, led by Dr. Diego Juzgado, offers patients innovative care in the diagnosis and treatment of digestive diseases.

As a distinguishing feature, we offer high-resolution consultations without the need to book an appointment, in the mornings, where patients can be assessed by a specialist and then undergo the necessary tests: laboratory, radiological or endoscopic.

This model ensures a fast, accurate and comprehensive diagnosis, which improves patient experience and safety.

Equipment

The Digestive System Service at Olympia Centro Médico Pozuelo has two fully equipped operating theatres adapted for endoscopic procedures, equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic towers.

AI applied to the diagnosis of digestive pathologies

The Digestive System team at Olympia Centro Médico Pozuelo will use an artificial intelligence (AI) module in its endoscopy towers to improve the quality and safety of colonoscopy examinations. The AI, called IA Genius, automatically identifies and flags abnormalities consistent with polyps.

Monographic consultations

The wide range of diseases affecting the digestive system and the need for specialised consultations have led the Digestive System team at Olympia Centro Médico Pozuelo to offer monographic consultations focused on some of the most prevalent pathologies, such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease and Barrett’s oesophagus.
