From bowel habits to bad gut feelings
MEDICUS - the Podcast by Duke-NUS Medical School
Bloating, constipation, stomach discomfort or an uneasy feeling you cannot quite explain, our gut often sends signals long before we decide to pay attention. In this episode, Duke-NUS alum Dr Tan Yu Bin from Class of 2018, now an Associate Consultant in the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at Singapore General Hospital, helps us make sense of common gut symptoms, demystifies what happens in the gastroenterology clinic and shares practical tips for better gut health.
Tune in for a candid and accessible conversation about a topic many of us experience, but do not talk about openly.
What's inside this episode:
- Why gut health matters more than many of us realise
- When gut discomfort may be a sign to seek medical advice
- What really happens in the gastroenterology clinic
- Yu Bin’s journey into gastroenterology, and how he hopes to inspire the future gut specialists
- How AI could help improve the future of gut care
