Conditions affecting the digestive tract are diagnosed and treated by both gastroenterologists and GI surgeons. In addition to internal medicine training, gastroenterologists often undergo specialised training in digestive system issues. They do nonsurgical procedures like colonoscopies and treat GI disorders medically (e.g., with medications).
GI surgeons operate on the digestive tract s organs as well as the abdomen (belly). Our GI doctors are pioneers in the field of minimally invasive GI surgery. Numerous members of our team have finished fellowship training, which is an intensive study of a particular field like hepatobiliary surgery (which includes the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder).
