Kauvery Hospital, Vadapalani launches Kauvery Institute of Digestive Sciences with Advanced Technology Chennai, 17th December 2025: Kauvery Hospital, Vadapalani, a leading multi-specialty hospital, has launched Kauvery Institute of Digestive Sciences, an exclusive clinical initiative focused on coordinated, evidence-based care for gastrointestinal and liver diseases, alongside preventive and lifestyle-oriented interventions for patients across all age groups. Led by a team of expert gastroenterologists, endoscopists, and digestive health specialists the newly launched institute features flexible endoscopes for diagnostic and interventional procedures like gastroscopy, colonoscopy, ERCP (a procedure used to diagnose and treat diseases of the bile and pancreatic ducts), and narrow band imaging are offered as part of diagnostic and treatment facilities. These advanced systems enable precision-guided, minimally invasive procedures for gastrointestinal and liver diseases. Digestive health issues affect a significant proportion of the Indian population. About 70% of the population experience digestive problems like acidity, bloating, constipation or indigestion yet less than half seek medical help. This growing burden is attributed to changing dietary patterns, high consumption of ultra-processed foods, irregular meal timings, chronic stress, sedentary lifestyles and inadequate sleep. There is a rise in digestive disorders among younger adults and adolescents, including functional bowel disorders and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Kauvery Institute of Digestive Sciences has been established to respond to these trends through a multidisciplinary clinical framework that integrates medical gastroenterology, advanced endoscopy, surgical gastroenterology and hepatology, supported by preventive care, nutritional guidance and patient education. Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Aravindan Selvaraj, Co-Founder and Executive Director, Kauvery Group of Hospitals, said, “ Kauvery Institute of Digestive Sciences reflects our continued investment in centres of excellence that respond to real-world health challenges. By combining clinical expertise with preventive care, we aim to improve outcomes and quality of life for patients living with digestive disorders.” In his comments, Dr. Pandurangan Basumani, Senior Consultant Interventional Gastroenterologist and Director, Kauvery Institute of Digestive Sciences, said, “Digestive disorders are no longer isolated clinical problems, they reflect broader lifestyle and public health challenges. Our focus is on building a system that prioritises early diagnosis, evidence-based intervention and long-term disease management. The Kauvery Institute of Digestive Sciences is designed to deliver structured, coordinated care that addresses both the medical and lifestyle dimensions of digestive health.” Commenting on changing disease patterns, Dr. T. K. Anand, Senior Consultant – Gastroenterologist and Endoscopist, Kauvery Hospital Vadapalani, said, “We are increasingly seeing gastrointestinal conditions present at younger ages, driven by lifestyle stressors and delayed care. Effective digestive healthcare today must go beyond symptom relief and focus on sustained lifestyle modification, preventive screening and timely intervention.” With the launch of Kauvery Institute of Digestive Sciences, Kauvery Hospital, Vadapalani strengthens its role in addressing one of India’s most prevalent yet often overlooked health concerns through structured, ethical and evidence-driven care.
