Liver fibrosis is silent. Symptoms set in late. A liver fibrosis assessment by Transient Elastography, a simple painless 5-minute scan, commonly called Fibroscan, detects early fibrosis.

Early liver damage is reversible depending on the cause.

Transient Elastography is now available at clinic in Milton Keynes.

Many patients come to us with blood results, scans, endoscopy reports or biopsy findings already available. A second opinion brings those pieces together into one clear clinical view.

At Harmony Digestive and Liver Wellness Centre, Milton Keynes, we review the full picture: symptoms, previous results, existing diagnoses and current treatment. From there, we provide a clear explanation and a practical plan.

Second opinions are available virtually or face to face, with access to endoscopy and specialist diagnostics where appropriate.

☀️ I’ve said for a while that GLP-1 medications may have benefits beyond weight loss. ☀️

A Danish clinical trial published in The Lancet has added an important piece to the picture: in people with obesity and alcohol use disorder, semaglutide reduced heavy drinking days over six months compared with placebo.

🧠 Clinically, this fits with what many patients describe:
✅ less “food noise”
✅ fewer cravings
✅ appetite changes
✅ changes in alcohol intake or tolerance

🌱 The hopeful part is the direction of travel. GLP-1 medicines appear to sit at the intersection of appetite, metabolism, reward and behaviour. Alcohol may be one of the areas where that becomes more visible.

Persistent digestive symptoms deserve proper attention.

Bloating, diarrhoea, early fullness, appetite change, unexplained weight loss or changes in stool colour can often have simple causes — but when they persist, change, or start affecting daily life, it is worth getting a specialist review.

At Harmony Digestive and Liver Wellness Centre, Milton Keynes, we offer consultant-led assessment for ongoing gut symptoms, with access to blood/stool tests, imaging, endoscopy and second opinions where appropriate.

A surprising number of people are told they have “fatty liver” or abnormal liver blood tests, but never get a clear assessment of whether there is liver scarring (fibrosis).

FibroScan is a quick, non-invasive test that helps us assess:

* liver fat (steatosis) and
* liver stiffness (a marker of fibrosis)
without needles, sedation or hospital admission.

We’ve put together a short guide explaining what a FibroScan is, who it’s for, how to prepare, and how results are interpreted:
👉 https://harmonygutandliver.com/what-is-a-fibroscan/

If you have been told you have fatty liver, raised ALT/AST, or you’re unsure what your liver tests actually mean, this is a useful starting point.

Discover what is a FibroScan and how it helps diagnose liver health. Learn more at Harmony Digestive and Liver Wellness Centre for expert care.

If you’ve had a cough for weeks or months and it just won’t settle, reflux can sometimes be part of the picture — even if you don’t get obvious heartburn.

I’ve written a simple Q&A on reflux and chronic cough: common patterns, when to consider gastroscopy, what tests actually help, and what you can do day to day.

Heartburn is common. Persistent reflux is worth checking.

If symptoms are becoming frequent, disturbing sleep, or you’re relying on regular medication, a gastroenterology review can clarify what’s going on and whether investigations such as gastroscopy (upper endoscopy) are needed.

At Harmony Digestive and Liver Wellness Centre, Milton Keynes, we assess acid reflux, heartburn, indigestion and swallowing symptoms and provide a clear plan (self-pay and insured patients).
