Gastric ulcer Treatment in Radioclinic

About the clinic

Radioclinic in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, provides specialized care for gastric ulcers using advanced endoscopic techniques and medical management. The clinic is known for its expert team of 10+ gastroenterologist-endoscopists and high-resolution imaging technology. Care is led by specialists like Dr. Sócrates Bautista Martínez, who is a specialist in inflammatory bowel disease.

Diagnostic options for gastric ulcers

The diagnostic process at the clinic focuses on identifying the cause of pain or bleeding and measuring stomach acidity. The facility uses the Fujifilm Eluxeo Lite system, which provides high-resolution video endoscopy for clear imaging of the stomach lining. Available tests include:

  • Gastroenterology consultation. A meeting with a specialist to discuss symptoms and medical history.
  • Video gastroscopy. A visual exam using a high-definition camera to find ulcers and lesions.
  • 24-hour gastric pHmetry. A test that tracks acidity levels for a full day to guide the treatment plan.

Endoscopic and medical treatments

For patients with bleeding ulcers, the clinic performs several types of endoscopic hemostasis to stop blood loss quickly. These procedures happen during a gastroscopy and help avoid traditional open surgery. The medical team also provides long-term management to prevent recurrence.

  • Endoscopic sclerosis of bleeding peptic ulcer. The doctor injects a sclerosing agent directly into the ulcer to stop active bleeding.
  • Endoscopic clip placement. Hemostatic clips are placed mechanically to close off bleeding vessels in the digestive tract.
  • Argon plasma coagulation. This non-contact thermal therapy uses ionized argon gas to treat stomach lesions and control bleeding.
  • Medical management. This includes specific diet and lifestyle guidance to support the healing of the stomach lining.

Recovery and follow-up care

Recovery from a gastric ulcer requires careful monitoring to confirm the mucosa has healed properly. Specialists at Radioclinic recommend scheduled follow-up control tests at least 4 weeks after starting treatment. This timeline allows the medical team to verify that the ulcer has closed and to adjust any ongoing medications. The clinic accommodates patients with various national and international medical insurance plans. To start your treatment, you can leave a request for a consultation on Bookimed.

Radioclinic: more details about the clinic

Dominican Republic, Santo Domingo
Radioclinic is a private diagnostic imaging and gastroenterology center in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Established in 2021, the facility focuses on specialized consultations and advanced digestive diagnostics. The medical team includes 12 specialists in internal medicine, hepatology, and endoscopy.### Digestive Health and EndoscopyRadioclinic specializes in diagnosing and managing complex gastrointestinal conditions. Several gastroenterologists focus on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This supports patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Specialists perform video endoscopic studies to visualize the digestive tract clearly.The clinic offers diagnostic and therapeutic procedures:
  • Videogastroscopy and videocolonoscopy for direct visualization of the upper and lower GI tract
  • Polypectomy to remove polyps during colonoscopy and prevent colorectal cancer
  • Esophageal dilation to widen narrowed areas of the esophagus
  • Endoscopic placement of clips to control acute digestive bleeding
  • Argon plasma therapy to treat lesions in the stomach or intestines

Physicians provide tailored management for gastritis, including diet and lifestyle guidance. Specialists recommend control tests at least four weeks after treatment to confirm recovery.

### Advanced Motility and Capsule DiagnosticsThe center provides specialized testing for neurogastroenterology and digestive motility. These studies help identify the cause of swallowing difficulties or chronic constipation. The clinic uses esophageal and anorectal manometry to measure muscle pressure and coordination. Patients can also receive 24-hour gastric acidity measurement (pHmetry) to evaluate acid reflux.For non-invasive visualization of the small intestine, the clinic performs capsule endoscopy. Patients swallow a small camera capsule that travels naturally through the digestive system. A belt-worn recorder captures images as the capsule passes. Doctors then process these images to identify hard-to-reach lesions. Dra. Liliana Jimenez trained in this technology in Pamplona, Spain.### Hepatology and Liver CareRadioclinic maintains a focused service line for liver health and hepatology. The team includes a physician with specialized training in liver transplantation. This specialist completed a fellowship at the Hospital Universitario Puerta de Hierro Majadahonda in Spain. This background allows the clinic to manage patients with advanced liver disease and those needing post-transplant monitoring.### Diagnostic Imaging and TechnologyThe clinic operates a dedicated imaging unit to support digestive diagnostics. Specialists perform abdominal and pelvic ultrasounds to check internal organs. Doppler studies evaluate blood flow. The center also provides transrectal and transvaginal sonography, along with thyroid and breast imaging.Radioclinic uses the Fujifilm Eluxeo Lite videoprocessor for endoscopic procedures. This technology provides high-resolution imaging to improve detection of precancerous lesions. The clinic also offers anorectal rehabilitation with biofeedback therapy for pelvic floor dysfunction.### Medical Team and TrainingThe specialist team includes Dr. Socrates Bautista Martinez, Dra. Keyla Villa, and Dr. Howard Vasquez. These physicians focus on inflammatory bowel disease and advanced endoscopy. The clinic supports continued medical education through international programs. Team members have completed specialized training like the Fujifilm-sponsored Total Quality in Endoscopy course.

The parking is a bit inconvenient because of the space, but overall it’s a good place to go to the doctor. In the cafeteria window I saw a fly, and the bathroom on the 4th floor has been for a long time with the sink faucet broken, so if you don’t know what a shutoff valve is, you’ll leave with dirty hands. In general, the common areas are always very clean. Despite what I mentioned, I’m giving 4 stars more for the doctor I visit here, because in terms of medical visits, I think this has been the center where I’ve felt the most comfortable.
