Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
( IBD)
I provide comprehensive care for patients with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. These chronic conditions can cause significant inflammation in the digestive tract, leading to symptoms like abdominal pain, diarrhea, fatigue, and weight loss. My approach focuses on personalized treatment plans that include the latest advancements in medications, nutritional guidance, and lifestyle modifications to help patients achieve long-term remission and improve their quality of life.
Upper GI Diseases
You will get comprehensive care for upper GI conditions, including difficulty swallowing (dysphagia), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and eosinophilic esophagitis. My approach begins with a thorough evaluation to accurately diagnose the underlying causes of these symptoms, using advanced endoscopic and diagnostic techniques when necessary. For GERD, a tailored treatment plan is offered that may include lifestyle modifications, medications, or procedures to control acid reflux and prevent complications. In treating eosinophilic esophagitis, we will discuss dietary guidance with targeted therapies.
Endoscopy
I am proficient in a wide range of endoscopic procedures, including EGD (upper endoscopy), colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, and feeding tube placements. These procedures enable me to effectively diagnose and treat various GI conditions, from identifying upper GI issues to performing colorectal cancer screenings and safely removing polyps. I do routine endoscopic procedures at an outpatient surgical center and high risk procedures at Osborn Medical Center. I am affiliated with Honor Health System.
Hepatology
I offer expert care for liver diseases, drawing on my advanced training in gastroenterology and hepatology at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and specialized liver transplantation training at Massachusetts General Hospital. My approach includes a thorough assessment to identify conditions such as metabolic liver diseases, hepatitis of different varieties, and cirrhosis, using state-of-the-art diagnostic tools.
