Advanced Endoscopy Services
Comprehensive Care from a Multidisciplinary Team of Physicians
At RWJBarnabas Health, our highly integrated team of specialists includes physicians who are experts at diagnosing, evaluating, and treating conditions of the digestive system, particularly, the esophagus, stomach, and portions of the intestines.
Our board-certified physicians includes gastroenterologists, oncologists, colon and rectal surgeons, bariatric surgeons, pathologists, and others who practice in fields such as social work, genetic counseling, and registered dietitians.
Our gastroenterologists are world-renowned for pioneering minimally invasive endoscopic procedures, including:
- Therapeutic endosonography
- Endoscopic treatment of obesity
- Endoscopic resection and myotomy
We meet our treatment goals by using only the most advanced, state-of-the-art equipment, including high-definition scopes for gastrointestinal procedures. These scopes help us get extremely clear views with heightened visual contrast, so our doctors can see the digestive tract in detail to diagnose and detect any abnormal growths. By detecting these as early as possible, these problematic growths may be removable before they become cancerous.
