Meet Dr. Prem:

With over 15 years of experience, I am excited to introduce myself as a gastroenterologist and hepatologist committed to providing compassionate care. Originally from Sri Lanka, I have served as a gastroenterologist and general physician in Taree, Foster, and Manning Base hospitals.

My Medical Journey

My medical career began at the University of Peradeniya in Sri Lanka, where I earned my Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery degree. I then pursued advanced training in general medicine and obtained an MD in medicine from the University of Colombo. After completing my training, I moved to Australia to specialize in gastroenterology. I have had the privilege of working at some of Australia’s most prestigious hospitals, including the Alfred Hospital, Frankston Hospital, Box Hill Hospital, Ballarat Hospital, Launceston Hospital, John Hunter Hospital, and Mater Hospital. I hold FRACP certification in General Medicine, Gastroenterology, and Hepatology.

Throughout my career, I have developed a comprehensive skill set in diagnosing and treating a broad spectrum of gastrointestinal disorders, such as:

• Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)
• Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
• Liver Disease
• Gastrointestinal Cancers

I am adept at performing a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, including:

• Endoscopy
• Colonoscopy
• Capsule Endoscopy
• FibroScan of the Liver

Patient-Centered Care

My career has been dedicated to helping patients find relief from their digestive symptoms. I am committed to creating a supportive and welcoming environment where you can feel comfortable discussing your health concerns. By developing a customized care plan tailored to your unique needs and goals, we can work together to achieve the best possible outcomes for your digestive health.
