From hemorrhoid treatment to determining the cause of persistent symptoms, such as abdominal pain, difficulty swallowing, indigestion, chronic diarrhea, or constipation, patients can depend on Dr. Nuakos experience and an extensively-trained staff to help them overcome gastrointestinal challenges and return to optimal health.Summit Endoscopy Center is a hub of expert diagnostic procedures where patients receive colonoscopies, upper GI endoscopies, sigmoidoscopies, and the innovative capsule endoscopy.Many patients are candidates for capsule endoscopy, which involves swallowing a tiny camera tucked into a vitamin-sized capsule, then the camera transmits images as it travels through the length of the gastrointestinal tract.For those who struggle to lose weight or to maintain a healthy weight, compassionate care is available at Summit Weight Loss. Whether you need to lose 10 pounds or 100 pounds, you receive dietary guidance, have access to the effective meal replacements, and benefit from the ongoing support and encouragement you need to lose weight successfully.To learn more about any of the services available at Advanced Gastroenterology, call the office or use the online booking feature to schedule an appointment.
