Frequently asked questions

What conditions do your gastroenterologists treat?

Our gastroenterologists specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of digestive health issues, from common conditions like acid reflux (GERD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) to chronic diseases such as Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis. We also manage symptoms that might seem less urgent but can significantly impact your quality of life, including constipation, bloating, indigestion, and other digestive discomforts. Additionally, we provide preventive care through screenings like colonoscopies to help catch problems early.

What should I expect during my first visit?

During your first visit, you’ll meet with one of our board-certified gastroenterologists who will review your medical history, discuss your symptoms in detail, and perform a physical examination if needed. Based on this, we may recommend diagnostic tests or develop a personalized treatment plan to address your concerns and improve your digestive health.

How quickly can I get an appointment?

We understand that digestive concerns can’t wait. That’s why we strive to schedule most new patient appointments as soon as the same week, and no later than one to two weeks, depending on availability.
