Gastroenterology at Pennsylvania Hospital

Gastroenterologists specialize in caring for people who have diseases of the stomach, intestines and other digestive organs. Endoscopy, a procedure that uses a flexible fiberoptic tube to examine the inside of the body cavity, is used to detect many upper and lower gastrointestinal (GI) problems. Those with acute heartburn, indigestion and unexplained abdominal pain can be treated by these specialists. In addition, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcers, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, esophageal tumors, liver disease, pancreatic disorders and other complex problems of the GI system are treated.

Gastroenterologists at Pennsylvania Hospital are recognized among the "Top Docs" in the region by Philadelphia Magazine and Best Doctors in America.
