Dr. Waliullah Siddiqui is a surgical gastroenterologist and liver transplant surgeon in Lucknow. He treats digestive diseases that need specialist surgery — from gallbladder stones and hernia to pancreatic, liver and GI cancers — at Max Super Speciality Hospital and Gastro Care, Metro City.

Most digestive problems are treated with medicines. When a condition needs an operation — or when it is complex, such as a tumour of the liver or pancreas — you need a surgical gastroenterologist with dedicated training in abdominal and HPB surgery.
Dr. Waliullah Siddiqui trained in surgical gastroenterology and liver transplantation in India and at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge, UK. He works with gastroenterologists, hepatologists, oncologists and intensive care teams so that each patient gets the right treatment, at the right time.

Get evaluated early if you have any of these — or if a scan has shown a problem.
