• Medical Weight Loss
  Flexible Sigmoidoscopy is used to detect inflamed tissue, abnormal growths, and ulcers and also look for early signs of colorectal cancer. It can help doctors diagnose unexplained changes in bowel habits, abdominal pain, bleeding from the anus, and weight loss.
• Primary Care
  Some insurers require precertification, preauthorization or a written referral. Obtaining precertification, authorizations and referrals is done by you primary care or referring physician. It is the patient’s responsibility to understand their insurance plan requirements and confirm that the proper authorization is obtained at least three (3) days prior to the date of service. Failure to obtain the necessary precertification, preauthorization or a written referral may result in cancellation of your procedure.
• Emergency Care
  Deductible: This is a specific dollar amount the patient must pay BEFORE the insurance carrier will begin to make payment. Some insurance plans have different types of deductibles (in-network and out of network, per hospital or Emergency room visit, etc). Payments made by insurance carriers to providers are automatically reduced by the amount of the patient’s remaining/unmet deductible.
• Colonoscopy
  Colonoscopy is procedure that enables your doctor to thoroughly examine the lining of your colon (large intestine). A colonoscope is the instrument used; it is a long (5-6 feet), thin, flexible tube that has a video camera and a light at the end. Your doctor will insert the scope into the rectum and slowly guide it through the entire length of the colon. Images are projected onto a high definition monitor to allow for a detailed examination. Photos can be taken to document findings or abnormalities. The colonoscope is equipped with additional channels through which special equipment can be inserted to remove tissue samples, perform biopsies or stop bleeding.

• Gastroenterology
  The GIQuic - GI Quality Improvement Consortium is a non- profit collaboration of the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) and the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) to collect and benchmark measures for quality, efficiency, effectiveness and reliability. Data is collected for established quality indicators for gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures on individual physicians.
• Colon Cancer
  Colorectal cancer is the 3rd leading cause of death in the United States. Statistics prove that colon cancer is highly preventable. Screening colonoscopy may detect polyps. Removing these polyps reduces the likelihood of developing colorectal cancer in the future. Screening colonoscopy is recommended for all men and women at the age of 50. If you have a parent or sibling diagnosed with Colorectal Cancer it is recommended you have a screening colonoscopy 10 years prior to the relative’s onset of the disease.
• Endoscopy
  Upper Endoscopy is known as gastroscopy, EGD, or Esophagogastroduodenoscopy. It is a procedure that enables your doctor to examine the lining of the esophagus (swallowing tube), stomach and duodenum (first portion of the small intestine). A flexible, lighted tube about the thickness of your little finger is placed through your mouth and into the stomach and duodenum. The tube or “endoscope” has a lens which projects images onto a high definition video monitor. Air is pumped through the endoscope to inflate the stomach and duodenum, making it easier for your doctor to evaluate for abnormalities. Special equipment that slides through the endoscope is used, if necessary, to remove tissue samples, perform biopsies, stop bleeding, and remove abnormal growths.
