What Is an Esophageal Stricture Consultation?

This consultation helps identify the presence, severity, and causes of esophageal narrowing and guides patients toward appropriate diagnostic and treatment options.

What We Review During Your Consultation:
  • Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) and symptom timeline
  • History of reflux, GERD, or esophageal injury
  • Medical history, medications, and risk factors
  • Assessment of food impaction and associated discomfort
  • Recommendations for imaging, endoscopy, or specialist referral

Why Early Evaluation of Esophageal Strictures Matters

In-home visits allow prompt assessment of swallowing difficulties, minimizing the risk of food impaction and complications. UrgentCare2Go® helps patients receive timely guidance and referrals without leaving home.

  • Identify the presence and severity of esophageal narrowing
  • Assess symptoms related to reflux, GERD, or prior injury
  • Provide guidance on diagnostic testing and endoscopic evaluation
  • Recommend treatment options including dilation, medications, or specialist referral
