Our Gastroenterology Services
Colonoscopy & Colon Cancer Screening
Colonoscopy is a crucial preventative screening for colon cancer, one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. We recommend routine screenings starting at age 45 or earlier for those with a family history of colon cancer or other risk factors.
Endoscopy (EGD – Esophagogastroduodenoscopy)
This procedure allows our gastroenterologists to examine the esophagus, stomach, and upper small intestine to diagnose conditions such as acid reflux (GERD), ulcers, and swallowing disorders.
Management of Digestive Disorders
Our team specializes in diagnosing and treating a range of digestive conditions, including:
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) – Chronic acid reflux that can lead to damage of the esophagus.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) – A common disorder causing abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) – Conditions like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis that cause chronic inflammation of the GI tract.
