Gastroenterology
Our gastroenterology surgeons can help you learn about digestive diseases, diagnoses, and effective treatment options.
Gastroenterology concentrates on the diagnosis and treatment of digestive diseases involving the esophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine (colon), liver, gallbladder, and pancreas.

Gastroenterology procedures performed at University Surgical Center:

The American Cancer Society recently changed their recommended age for first colon screening for average-risk patients from 50 to 45. This change was made, in large part, because of the rise in colorectal incidence rates in a younger population over the last few years.

- GERD/Acid Reflux
- Crohn’s Disease
