GI treatment options

We are committed to providing patient-centered treatments that are specially tailored to your needs.

Our doctors offer a wide range of treatment options, including:

  • Colonoscopy — An endoscopic exam wherein a colonoscope is used to detect changes or abnormalities in the large intestine, colon and rectum

  • Esophageal endoscopy (EGD) — An endoscopic procedure used to examine the lining of the esophagus and diagnose and treat certain upper GI tract disorders
  • EUS-guided procedure — An endoscopic procedure in which doctors use endoscopic ultrasound to view the body's internal structures and guide them through the examination
  • EUS fine-needle aspiration — An endoscopic procedure that uses EUS-generated sonograms to help doctors see where to place a biopsy needle to remove tissue for further investigation
  • Immunosuppressive medication — A non-invasive method in which certain drugs are prescribed to treat and manage conditions such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis
