Naples Day Surgery

Gastroenterology

Gastroenterology sometimes called “GI” specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of adults and children with disorders of the gastro-intestinal tract. This tract includes the stomach, intestines and all other structures from the mouth to the rectum and assists with digestion of food and the absorption of nutrition.

Our board-certified gastroenterologists have expertise in virtually all types of digestive conditions, such as acid reflux disease, GERD, Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome “IBS” and irritable bowel disease “IBD”, ulcerative colitis, swallowing disorders, hepatitis and other concerns of the GI tract.

At Naples Day Surgery, our specialists are highly skilled in diagnosing and repairing a variety of disorders using advanced minimally invasive procedures that are safe and effective. From endoscopy and colonoscopy to esophageal / gastric biopsies and esophageal dilatation to remove blockages or repair conditions of the esophagus, our specialists and support team are uniquely qualified to meet the needs of our adult and pediatric GI patients.

YOUR ENDOSCOPY

Naples Day Surgery centers are dedicated to providing the highest standard of gastroenterology endoscopic services in a safe, efficient and cost effective environment.

Endoscopy is a minimally invasive diagnostic medical procedure used to evaluate the interior surfaces of an organ. By inserting a small scope in the body, usually through a natural body opening, the specialist is able to see lesions, take small biopsies and retrieve foreign objects. Many endoscopic procedures are relatively painless and only associated with mild discomfort, though patients are sedated for most procedures.
