A senior gastroenterologist with a lab most clinics don't have
- Luminal gastroenterology is his speciality — reflux, IBS, constipation, IBD, celiac: the everyday conditions that are badly treated everywhere.
- He founded Delhi's first motility lab (2010) and pioneered solid-state and 3D high-resolution manometry in Indian private practice.
- Japan-trained in early cancer detection — magnification endoscopy, NBI, EMR and ESD, offered by very few doctors in India.
- Hepatology from SGPGI — fatty liver, hepatitis B/C, cirrhosis, including patients needing transplant.
Tests done in-house, interpreted by the doctor
Breath tests for H. pylori and SIBO, FibroScan for the liver, oesophageal and anorectal manometry, 24-hour pH-impedance, biofeedback, capsule endoscopy — all under one specialist, so results turn into a plan the same visit.
How a consultation works
Most first visits end with a clear diagnosis or a short list of the right tests — and a patient who understands what is going on.

From the blog
IBS vs IBD: how to tell the difference, and why it matters
Both cause cramps, bloating and altered bowel habit — but one is a functional disorder and the other is inflammation that can damage the gut. Dr Maneesh Paliwal explains the signs that separate them.
Bloated after every meal? Six causes and how each is treated
Bloating is not 'just gas'. It has a mechanism — and a breath test, a diet trial or a motility study usually reveals it.
Fatty liver is reversible — here is the plan that works
Grade 2 fatty liver is not a life sentence. A hepatologist explains what the FibroScan really tells you and the changes that reverse fat and inflammation.
