Minimally invasive and endoscopic surgery options
Depending on your symptoms and diagnosis, gastroenterology treatment options range from medication therapy to surgical services.
If surgery is required, our gastrointestinal doctors use advanced techniques, including minimally invasive endoscopic surgery. Endoscopic surgery is performed using a scope that is inserted through small incisions.
We frequently perform the following surgical procedures:
- Appendectomy, also known as appendix removal
- Cholecystectomy, also known as gallbladder removal
- Esophagectomy, also known as esophageal cancer removal
- Hernia repair
- Stomach surgery
If you need immediate relief for heartburn and acid reflux, acute or chronic stomach pain or other digestive issues, we advise you seek care in our emergency room (ER).
