His clinical expertise lies in providing a holistic and personalised approach for patients with acute and chronic gastrointestinal symptoms or diseases. His subspecialty interests include conditions that may result from the interaction of the gut-brain- microbiome axis (like irritable bowel syndrome), immune mediated inflammatory bowel diseases (ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease) or following chemotherapy/immunotherapy/stem cell transplantation for cancer (graft versus host disease, checkpoint inhibitor colitis).
Dr Pavlidis is a JAG accredited endoscopist for upper and lower GI diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. As a core member of the IBD team at King’s he provides surveillance colonoscopy for patients at high risk of colorectal cancer, including those with a long diagnosis of ulcerative colitis and people with combined liver and gut inflammation like PSC-IBD.
As the Upper GI cancer, two-week-wait pathway Lead at King’s he aspires to deliver with his team a high quality, rapid diagnostics service for patients with concerning gastrointestinal symptoms. As the Clinical Governance Lead his priority is to lead the wider luminal gastroenterology team’s efforts in providing safe and evidenced base care with empathy, personalised to the individual’s needs.
