World-Renowned Care for Your Digestive Health
When it comes to nearly any disorder of the esophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, small intestine, colon, rectum or anus, our team has unmatched experience in providing effective, compassionate care.
Many of the physicians at AdventHealth Digestive Health Institute are fellowship-trained, which enhances the depth of their medical knowledge in their specialty. Across all of its centers, the AdventHealth Digestive Health Institute medical team includes a group of gastroenterologists (GI physicians), speech language pathologists and highly experienced surgeons who are all experts in minimally invasive surgery for conditions of the digestive system. Minimally invasive surgery requires greater surgical skill, and it often means a safer surgery with a more comfortable, faster recovery. Your digestive health deserves the highest level of care, which you can find at AdventHealth Digestive Health Institute.
High-Quality, Compassionate Care
If you have a condition related to your digestive health, our board-certified physicians offer a comprehensive range of treatment options that can treat it effectively. No two patients or conditions are exactly alike, and personalized care leads to better results. Our specialists offer some of the most advanced treatments available anywhere, including:
- A less invasive procedure for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) that cures the condition
- Advanced endoscopy procedures for improved diagnosis accuracy and surgical precision
- Minimally invasive surgery for liver and pancreatic conditions, including cancer
- Surgical treatments for inflammatory bowel disease that avoid the need for a colostomy bag
- Single-site surgeries that result in no visible scars
We offer comprehensive care for the entire digestive system. Although finding all the specialists you need in a single place is unusual, our patients benefit from having their gastroenterologist and surgeon on the same team. We're committed to providing more seamless care.
- Board-Certified, Fellowship-Trained Physicians
-
Fellowship training gives physicians more knowledge and experience in a single treatment area. More knowledgeable and experienced doctors provide patients with better results. Many of our doctors also perform research and present at medical conferences as thought leaders in their fields. Some train other surgeons in minimally invasive techniques.
- Minimally Invasive Surgical Expertise
-
Whenever possible, our surgeons at AdventHealth Digestive Health Institute use minimally invasive methods. Instead of operating through large, open incisions, they use techniques that involve only a few, small external cuts. While minimally invasive surgery requires greater skills, the benefits to patients include less pain, less scarring and easier and faster recoveries.
- Specialty Centers for Your Peace of Mind
-
AdventHealth Digestive Health Institute has centers specializing in treating some of the more common digestive disorders — acid reflux and other conditions of the esophagus, irritable bowel disease and other colorectal conditions, and disorders of the liver, pancreas and gallbladder. Having medical teams that specialize in disorders involving these smaller portions of the body leads to many benefits. For one, our patients receive treatment plans that take a lot more into consideration, such as making sure a treatment for one condition will not cause a new disorder.
- Prioritizing Our Cancer Patients
-
A cancer diagnosis often requires treatment as quickly as possible, and treatment sometimes starts with surgery. That’s why we prioritize patients who call for cancer consultations and second opinions.
- Individualized Whole-Person Care
-
No two patients are exactly alike, and neither is their experience with the same digestive condition. We get to know our patients so we can offer them the appropriate care based on their needs and goals. Every patient deserves to live their best possible life in body, mind and spirit.
