Anthony D. Wignall is a gastroenterologist based in Adelaide, working from Level 2 in the Helen Mayo Building South on Frome Rd (Adelaide, SA 5005).
As a stomach and gut doctor, he looks after people with bowel and digestion problems. In many cases, that means helping work out what’s behind ongoing diarrhoea, gut upset, or tummy symptoms that keep coming back. He also sees patients with viral gastroenteritis, where the main issue is usually an infection that affects the stomach and intestines.
Sometimes, diarrhoea and gut symptoms can be linked to infections. Anthony works with patients where an infectious cause is suspected, including rarer gut infections such as rhabditida infections. The goal is to get the cause clearer, then make a plan that fits what’s happening for that person.
He also supports patients who have other health concerns at the same time. For example, his service listings include breast cancer. While the focus is still digestive health, people going through cancer care can have gut side effects, and those symptoms still matter and should be taken seriously.
When you see a gastroenterologist, it can feel a bit worrying—especially if symptoms have been around for weeks, or if they affect work, sleep, or day to day life. Anthony’s approach stays practical and calm. He tends to look at the pattern of symptoms, how long it’s been going on, and what might be driving it.
Details about Anthony’s education and years of experience aren’t listed in the information available here. The same goes for any research activities and clinical trial involvement. If you’d like those specifics for your appointment, it’s worth asking the clinic directly.
