Dr. Prasad B S

Dr. Prasad is a highly experienced Paediatric Gastroenterologist currently practising at KMC Hospital, Mangalore. With around a decade of experience in paediatric gastroenterology, hepatology and nutrition, he is well-versed in understanding various gut, liver and pancreatic disorders in children.

His educational journey began with an MBBS degree followed by a Doctor of Surgery (DCh) from Bangalore Medical College, Karnataka. Further specialising his skills, she earned the Diplomate of National Board from Chacha Nehru Balchikitsalaya, New Delhi and a Postdoctoral Certificate Course in Paediatric Gastroenterology from Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences.

Dr. Prasad is well-versed in Luminal Gastroenterology, focusing on the diagnosis and management of conditions affecting the oesophagus, stomach, and intestines. A core aspect of his expertise is Therapeutic Endoscopy, where he utilises minimally invasive techniques not just to examine, but actively treat digestive disorders.

His diagnostic capabilities include performing routine and complex Upper GI endoscopy, Ileo-colonoscopy, and Mucosal biopsy to achieve accurate diagnoses. Furthermore, he is skilled in interventional endoscopic procedures like Polypectomy (removal of polyps), treating strictures through Dilatation (using both bougie and balloon techniques), and performing Endoscopic foreign body removal.

Beyond routine procedures, Dr. Prasad specialises in advanced therapeutic techniques, particularly for managing gastrointestinal bleeding and lesions. For conditions like oesophageal varices, he performs Endoscopic variceal banding, Endoscopic sclerotherapy, and Endoscopic glue injection.

Dr. Prasad also has a dedicated proficiency in Hepatology, dealing with disorders of the liver. His diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities in this area include performing liver biopsy to assess liver tissue and managing fluid accumulation (ascites) through peritoneal tap, which can be executed for both diagnostic sampling and therapeutic fluid removal. Importantly, his scope of practice extends to paediatric medicine, as he manages Gut, liver and pancreatic disorders in children, providing specialised care for complex gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary issues in younger patients.
