Gastroenterology

DR. ZANE STRAUME

Certified internist, gastroenterologist, specialist in Gastrointestinal endoscopy

In this time of change, when a new order enters the world, our way of life must also change.
Doctors also need to be able to adapt, so the idea of a different way to communicate and
help their patients came up.
My concept is to look at each patient as a whole with all the diseases and lifestyle habits
inherited from the family and acquired during life. Often, a symptom or disease can help
answer a vague question and make it easier to find a digestive problem.
I am here for the health and wellness of your digestive system.


Specialisations: diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases of the oesophagus,
stomach, pancreas, liver, bile ducts, small intestine, colon and rectum.

Daktere Straume ir viens no profesionālākajiem, zinošākajiem un lietpratīgākajiem ārstiem, kādu esmu saticis.
Viņa ir ne tikai lieliska gastroenteroloģijas ārste, bet arī izmanto holistisku pieeju aprūpei. Viņa dod saviem pacientiem laiku, uzmanīgi klausās, mudina mainīt dzīvesveidu un atzīst prāta un ķermeņa būtisko saikni.

Viens no labākajiem ārstiem, ar kādu esmu sastapies. Ļoti zinošs, profesionāls un empātisks. Viens no retajiem ārstiem, kurš ne tikai ārstē simptomus, bet, pats galvenais, uzklausa jūsu vispārējās veselības problēmas, lai atrastu un ārstētu galveno cēloni. Viņas holistiskā pieeja veselībai būtiski ietekmē pareizās ārstēšanas atrašanu. Ļoti iesaku! Paldies Dr.Straume.
