General practitioners who have worked with stomach issues for a long time

All of our doctors are licensed by the Dubai Health Authority and have had a lot of training in how to treat stomach issues.  We don't have specialists in gastroenterology; instead, we provide general practitioner-level care. But our doctors are quite skilled at figuring out what's wrong with people who have common digestive issues including heartburn, acid reflux, GERD, nausea, vomiting, food poisoning, and gastroenteritis.  Our GPs are adept at completing complete evaluations, alleviating symptoms, providing the proper drugs, and recognizing when a patient needs to see a specialist.  Our doctors give excellent first aid and set up referrals to Dubai's best gastroenterologists for complicated or long-term digestive issues that require endoscopy or other specialized procedures. This makes sure that your treatment goes on without any issues.

A full range of assessment and treatment options

We do a lot more than merely aid with symptoms for a little while.  When we come to your house, we will go over your medical history in detail, do a physical exam, check your blood pressure and vital signs, look for dehydration and other problems, treat acute symptoms right away, manage your prescription medications (including antacids and anti-nausea drugs), give you advice on how to eat and live to avoid problems, and work with specialists when you need more advanced care.  We can offer people who suffer heartburn and acid reflux drugs to treat them immediately away and establish plans to help them have fewer episodes.  We assess the hydration levels of people who have gastroenteritis or food poisoning, give them medicine to stop them from feeling sick, and make sure they take the necessary steps to get better.

Medical Records and Care That Works Together

Our services operate flawlessly with Dubai's NABIDH electronic medical records system, so you may easily work with your present doctors.  We keep extensive records of your symptoms, treatments, and progress, so it's easy to share this information with gastroenterologists, your regular doctor, or any other specialists you may need to see. This combination strategy makes sure that care is always the same and that medications and treatments don't get in the way of each other. This is really significant for those with long-term illnesses like GERD that may need to take medication for a long time.

What Heartburn, Acid Reflux, Nausea, and Throwing Up Are

What Acid Reflux and Heartburn Are

Heartburn happens when stomach acid backs up into the esophagus, the tube that runs from your mouth to your stomach. This is a burning feeling in the chest that typically moves up toward the neck and throat.  Heartburn has nothing to do with your heart, even though it sounds like it does.  Stomach acid can flow back up when the lower esophageal sphincter, a ring of muscle at the bottom of your esophagus, becomes weak or excessively relaxed.  Most people get heartburn after eating a lot of spicy, fatty, or heavy food.  The burning feeling usually gets worse after eating, at night, when you lean over, or when you lie down. A lot of people also have a bad taste in their mouths, especially when they go to bed at night.

Heartburn happens when food and drink travel from the stomach back into the esophagus. This is known as acid reflux.  It becomes gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD for short, when this happens a lot, at least twice a week for several weeks.  This problem can produce pain that lasts for a long time, and if it isn't addressed, it can damage the lining of the esophagus over time.  Some common triggers are eating too much, spicy, fatty, or acidic foods, drinking citrus juices, alcohol, caffeinated beverages, or carbonated drinks, eating soon before bed, being overweight, smoking, being pregnant, and taking certain medications.  Some patients with GERD don't experience heartburn, but they do have a cough that won't go away, problems swallowing, a lump in their throat, or a raspy voice.

There are a lot of reasons why you might feel sick and throw up.

You often feel ill to your stomach before you throw up, but not always. When you vomit, your stomach's contents are pushed out of your mouth with a lot of force.  There are many things that can cause these symptoms, such as digestive problems like acid reflux, food poisoning, gastroenteritis (stomach flu), motion sickness or seasickness, morning sickness during pregnancy, side effects of medications, eating too much or too quickly, viral or bacterial infections, migraine headaches, stress and anxiety, dehydration, or other health problems.   It's fairly normal for acid reflux and nausea to happen at the same time. When stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, it can make your throat hurt and make you feel nauseous. Because of the sour taste and the fact that you burp a lot, reflux can also make you feel sick to your stomach.

Gastroenteritis and food poisoning

Food poisoning happens when you eat or drink food or water that has hazardous bacteria, viruses, parasites, or poisons in it.  E. coli, Campylobacter, and Norovirus are some of the most common germs that cause this. Some of the most prevalent causes are E. coli, Campylobacter, and Norovirus.  Coli, Campylobacter, and Norovirus.  Food can get contaminated at any stage of processing, preparation, or storage, or if it is cooked or handled wrong.  Symptoms usually show up a few hours after consuming contaminated food. They include nausea and vomiting, stomach cramps and pain, watery diarrhea, fever and chills, headache and muscular pains, and general weakness and exhaustion.  Most of the time, the person will get better on their own in a few days if they drink enough water and get enough sleep. But in other circumstances, medical treatment may be needed.

Gastroenteritis, or stomach flu, is an infection that makes the stomach and intestines swell.  Even though it has the name, it has nothing to do with the flu. If you consume or drink food or water that contains the virus in it or are around someone who has it, you can have viral gastroenteritis.  The symptoms are similar to those of food poisoning: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach cramps, and sometimes a fever. But they might start slowly and last for a few days.  The biggest concern with both food poisoning and gastroenteritis is dehydration, which is especially dangerous for kids, older adults, and persons with weak immune systems.  Signs of dehydration include thirst, a dry mouth, fewer urination, dark urine, dizziness while standing, and weariness.

Our Home Treatment Services for Stomach Issues

Fast relief from acid reflux and heartburn

When heartburn or acid reflux symptoms are too intense, our GP experts can swiftly give you remedies that have been demonstrated to work.  During your home visit, we will fully evaluate your symptoms. This means looking at how terrible and how often your heartburn is, how it relates to meals and body position, what foods and activities make it worse, what drugs you are currently on, and any warning signals of complications.

What to Do When You Feel Sick and Throw Up

If your nausea or vomiting is getting in the way of your daily life, our experts will find out what's causing it and help you feel better.  We do thorough evaluations that look at the start and duration of symptoms, their connection to food intake, other symptoms like fever or abdominal pain, recent food consumption and possible exposure to contamination, current hydration status and signs of dehydration, and possible causes related to medication or pregnancy.  Depending on the cause, treatment may include anti-nausea medications (antiemetics) to control symptoms, medications to lower stomach acid if reflux is a problem, rehydration solutions or IV fluids for dehydration, medications to slow down intestinal motility if needed, and slowly reintroducing bland foods as symptoms get better.

Our experts tell you exactly how to rehydrate by drinking small amounts of clear fluids, electrolyte replacement beverages, and the BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce, toast) for recovery. They also tell you what foods and drinks to avoid during recovery and when to go to the hospital right away.

How to Handle Food Poisoning and Gastroenteritis

If you suffer food poisoning or the stomach flu, you don't have to leave your house to get help from our home visit service. To figure out how serious your condition is, our doctors look at the timeline and progression of your symptoms, your hydration status and signs of dehydration, whether you have a fever or blood in your stool, the likelihood of a bacterial versus viral cause, and any risk factors for complications. The goal of treatment is to keep the patient from getting dehydrated and to manage their symptoms. This is done by giving the person specific fluids to drink, anti-nausea medications to stop vomiting, antidiarrheal medications when needed (used carefully to avoid trapping toxins), fever-reducing medications if needed, pain relief for abdominal cramps, and in severe cases, coordinating IV fluid therapy or hospital admission.

We give clear instructions on how to get better, such as when and how to start eating and drinking again, which foods and drinks to focus on and which to stay away from, signs that things are getting worse and need immediate attention, how long it will take to get better, and how family members can help stop the illness from spreading.  Our doctors can also provide you a sick leave certificate if you need to miss work or school.  Most of food poisoning are viral and go better with supportive treatment.  If the symptoms are bad, stay longer than expected, or arrive with concerning indicators like a high temperature or bloody diarrhea, we will set up lab testing or send you to a specialist as needed.

When to Call a Doctor Right Away

Heartburn and reflux symptoms that need to be looked at right away

You can typically manage heartburn at home, but some symptoms need to be checked out by a doctor immediately away.  If you have chest discomfort that feels different than heartburn, especially if you also have trouble breathing, pain in your arms, jaw, or sweating, call us straight once. These could mean that you are having a heart attack instead of heartburn.  Some other urgent symptoms are trouble swallowing or the feeling that food is stuck, constant vomiting, vomiting blood or something that looks like coffee grounds, black, tarry stools that show bleeding in the digestive tract, unintentional weight loss, severe pain that doesn't get better with normal medications, or heartburn with severe abdominal pain.  Our doctors can make an initial assessment and determine whether the patient has to be brought to the hospital straight away.

Important Times When You Might Feel Sick and Throw Up

If you are throwing up and feeling sick and have signs of severe dehydration, like not being able to keep any fluids down for more than 12 hours, having very dark urine or not urinating for 8 hours, feeling very dizzy or fainting when standing, being confused or having a changed mental state, or having a fast heartbeat and breathing, you should call a doctor right away.  Other urgent situations include vomiting blood or something that looks like coffee grounds, severe abdominal pain that is only in one area, a high fever above 39°C (102°F) that doesn't go down with medication, persistent vomiting that lasts more than 24 hours, signs of severe dehydration, especially in children or the elderly, or vomiting during pregnancy that makes it hard to eat or drink.

If you have food poisoning or gastroenteritis and you have blood or pus in your diarrhea, severe abdominal cramping that is getting worse, not being able to keep down any fluids for 12 to 24 hours, signs of severe dehydration, a fever above 39°C, neurological symptoms like blurred vision or muscle weakness (which could mean botulism), or symptoms in people who are at high risk, like babies, the elderly, pregnant women, or people with weak immune systems, you need to see a doctor right away.  You can use our home visit service any time of day or night. It can swiftly look at all of these circumstances.

Step 3: A comprehensive checkup and diagnosis

Your doctor will do a comprehensive checkup, starting with a long talk about your symptoms, how long they've been going on, and how they've affected your everyday life. They might look at the person's hydration balance, recent food intake, and any infections or poisons to see if they are sick or throwing up.  This thorough evaluation allows for a correct diagnosis and the selection of the best treatment within the limits of GP care.

Step 4: A strategy for your care and treatment that is just for you

Your doctor will start treating you straight away after they figure out what's wrong with you. This includes giving medications to quickly relieve symptoms, giving dietary and lifestyle advice, coming up with ways to prevent chronic conditions, and making follow-up appointments or referrals to specialists as needed. When someone has gastroenteritis or food poisoning, the main goals of treatment are to keep them hydrated, regulate their symptoms, and follow their recovery plans. We can provide clients sick leave certificates if they miss job or school.

Step 5: Getting ongoing help and working with specialists

We call you after your treatment to check on your progress and how well the treatment is working, set up medication refills and changes as needed, schedule more home visits for chronic condition management or complicated cases, make it easier for you to see a specialist when you need to see a gastroenterologist, and give you ongoing access to our medical team for any questions or concerns.   We work with you over time to manage long-term illnesses like GERD.
