Memorial Specialty Care Gastroenterology specializes in diagnosing and treating all forms of gastrointestinal diseases and disorders. Our care most often focuses on issues related to the esophagus, pancreas, stomach, liver, gallbladder, intestine and colon. Our priority is to fully understand the patient’s condition. Lifestyle education and medication management play a key role in our care as we help patients learn to better manage chronic issues and conditions. Should a condition require a surgical procedure, we make the referral process seamless and keep primary care providers updated.
