Eonway Custom Blood Work

Central Clinic: Not available on Thursdays.

iHope Clinic: Available Wednesdays & Thursdays only.

Get a complete, non-invasive evaluation of your entire upper and lower digestive tract under painless sedation. This combined procedure visualizes the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, and large intestine to detect ulcers, inflammation, polyps, and early signs of gastrointestinal disease.

Who It's For

• Digestive Symptom Investigation: Individuals experiencing persistent heartburn, acid reflux, stomach pain, chronic bloating, unexplained nausea, or changes in bowel habits (e.g., chronic diarrhea or constipation).

• Colorectal & Gastric Screening: Anyone aged 45+ or those with a personal or family history of gastrointestinal polyps, stomach cancer, or colorectal cancer. (Rather than waiting for symptoms or the public age 45 threshold, many adults in Taiwan electively book this screening between ages 30 and 40+.)

• Comprehensive Gut Health Check: Patients seeking a full top-to-bottom screening of their digestive system in a single, painless appointment.

What's Included & Why It Matters

1. Painless Upper Endoscopy (Gastroscopy)

• Upper GI Inspection: Direct visual examination of the lining of your esophagus, stomach, and duodenum using a high-definition endoscope.

• Why It Matters: Identifies gastritis, ulcers, H. pylori infection, hiatus hernia, and early upper GI lesions.

2. Painless Colonoscopy

• Lower GI Inspection: Full visual evaluation of the entire large intestine (colon) and rectum.

• Why It Matters: The gold standard for detecting and preventing colorectal cancer through early identification of precancerous polyps.

3. Conscious Sedation / Anesthesia

• Painless Comfort: Administered by trained medical staff to ensure you remain completely comfortable and pain-free throughout both procedures.

4. English Report of Results

• Official Clinical Findings: A detailed analytical report provided in English for your medical records.

• Why It Matters: Offers precise diagnostic insights to share with your gastroenterologist or primary care physician for ongoing care.

How It Works

1. Medication Adjustments (1 Week Prior): Stop taking blood thinners (e.g., Aspirin) and health supplements (such as Fish Oil, Ginseng, Ginkgo, Vitamin E, Lutein, Turmeric, Natto, or Red Yeast Rice) 7 days before your exam.

2. Diet Prep (2 Days Prior): Switch to a low-residue diet (e.g., plain porridge, plain noodles, white toast, or low-residue meal replacements) to reduce intestinal stool.

3. Bowel Prep (1 Day Prior & Exam Morning): Take your prescribed bowel cleansing agent (e.g., Bowklean) in two split doses as instructed, drinking plenty of water/sports drinks until your stool is a clear, light yellowish liquid.

4. Fasting & Water Ban: Stop all water intake 4 hours before the examination to prevent aspiration during anesthesia.

5. Procedure & Recovery: The painless procedure takes place under sedation. Afterwards, you will rest in the recovery area until the sedative wears off.

Good to Know

• Report Delivery: Your complete English report will be ready in 7–10 business days.

• Transportation Safety: Because you will receive sedation, you must not drive, ride a bicycle, or operate machinery after the procedure. Walking and taxi is okay.

• Clinic Rules: Do not wear contact lenses or nail polish/gel polish on the day of the exam, as these interfere with vital sign monitoring.

• On-Site Medical Procedures: Biopsies, tissue removal, polyp removal, hemostatic clips, or H. pylori testing performed based on the doctor's judgment during the scan are separate medical treatments and incur additional fees at check-out.

• Medication Guidance: If you take diabetes medications or anticoagulants, consult your physician for exact suspension instructions. Continue taking chronic constipation medications as usual.
