Colonoscopy
Colon-related health can be difficult to assess, but it is vital to do so. 50 or over? Schedule your colonoscopy today to prevent colon cancer.
Ablation therapy
Ablation therapy allows endoscopists to use various forms of energy to treat and remove diseased tissue from inside the GI tract.
Endoluminal Stenting
Endoscopists can place a variety of different of metal stents (tubes) inside the GI tract to treat blockages or leaks affecting various different organs.
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)
ERCP is a specialized endoscopic technique to evaluate and treat the bile ducts, pancreas ducts and gallbladder.
EUS
EUS is a powerful endoscopic technology that uses sound waves to allow visualization, diagnosis and treatment of diseases both inside and outside the GI tract.
Laser Lithotripsy
This is an exciting technology that allows endoscopists to utilize lasers to fragment large stones inside the bile ducts to help with their removal.
Photodynamic therapy
Photodynamic therapy is a novel technology that uses light activation to destroy tumor cells inside the bile duct.
Transpapillary gallbladder stenting
Transpapillary gallbladder stenting is an advanced ERCP technique that allows for treatment of gallbladder disease non-surgically, with reduced pain and fast recovery times.
EUS-guided Cystgastrostomy
Quickly, painlessly handle pancreatic pseudocysts with the power of ultrasound sound waves. This procedure is the gold standard for drainage of these collections.
Optical Endomicroscopy
We are detecting more and more pancreatic cysts (fluid collections) today due to rampant use of radiographic imaging. Optical endomicroscopy gives us a closer view of these cysts and not miss cancer.
EUS-guided Biliary and Pancreatic Drainage
In rare cases where conventional ERCP is not successful, this procedure can be used to access and treat both bile and pancreas ducts without leaving painful drains exiting the patient’s skin.
Internal EDGE
The EDGE procedure is novel technique developed by Dr. Kedia and his mentor, Dr. Kahaleh to perform ERCP in roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB) patients without the need for surgery.
EUS-guided Gallbladder Drainage
For patients with gallbladder disease who are not surgical candidates for gallbladder removal, this procedure offers a minimally-invasive alternative to treat infection and inflammation.
Pelvic Abscess Drainage
Endoscopy can be used to drain infected collections (abscesses) from inside the body instead of large painful drains being inserted through the skin.
EUS-guided Gastric Variceal Embolization
Patient with cirrhosis of the liver can develop many complications including bleeding. This technique allows for treatment of abnormal bleeding vessels in cirrhotic patients.
Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication (TIF)
1 in 5 Americans suffers with symptoms of acid-reflux and heartburn. The TIF procedure is a completely endoscopic procedure to treat and cure your heartburn.
Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM)
POEM is a completely endoscopic procedure using specialized instruments to perform microsurgery inside the esophagus to treat the swallowing order known as achalasia.
Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD)
ESD is an endoscopic procedure using specialized instruments to removal early cancers, without the need for surgery.
Endsocopic Zenker’s Diverticulum Myotomy
A Zenker’s diverticulum (ZD) is an anatomic outpouching of the esophagus (food pipe) that typically occurs in elderly patients. Endoscopy can fix this problem.
Endoscopic suturing
Endoscopic suturing is a new technology that allows endoscopists to manipulate tissue inside the GI tract to treat a variety of diseases.
Intragastric Balloons
Struggling to lose weight? A gastric balloon keeps you feeling full and satisfied, ensuring you can shed pounds easily.
Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty
ESG is the new version of the gastric sleeve. An outpatient procedure without surgery to achieve real weight loss.
Endoscopic Gastrojejunal (GJ) Outlet Reduction
Achieved weight loss, only to find the pounds coming back? Gastric bypass revision could be what you need to keep them off.
G-POEM
The G-POEM is a non-surgical, endoscopic procedure that takes less than 2 hours and results in significant symptom improvement of 70-80% of gastroparesis patients.
