Advanced Endoscopy Services
Our advanced endoscopy services are provided in conjunction with a highly integrated team that includes specialists in interventional gastroenterology, gastroenterology, surgery, surgical oncology, medical oncology, radiation oncology, radiology, interventional radiology, and pathology, as well as social work and genetic counseling. Dietitians also play a role, since nutrition can be a major quality-of-life issue for individuals with advanced gastrointestinal disorders.
Multiple treatment options, along with access to groundbreaking clinical trials, are available, combining for exceptional quality services and patient care.
Our team is led by a world-renowned endoscopist who is pioneering minimally invasive procedures involving therapeutic endosonography, endoscopic treatment of obesity, endoscopic resection and myotomy, both nationally and internationally.
Our expert team of specialists uses novel and innovative endoscopic techniques to meet the needs of individuals with a variety of gastrointestinal disorders, from common conditions such as gallstones to the most complex cancers of the gastrointestinal tract. We provide minimally invasive alternatives to surgical or interventional radiology procedures, focusing on early detection and personalized treatments of these conditions.
Our dedicated, state-of-the-art endoscopy suite enables our specialists to easily integrate cutting-edge technology as they perform the full range of highly advanced procedures.
