Arthritis
Medical Weight Loss
Also called ulcerative colitis, IBD is a digestive health condition that causes inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. As the name suggests, those with IBD only have an inflamed colon, resulting in abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, and severe diarrhea. Some patients also experience bowel movement urgency, poor appetite and weight loss, nausea, and anal pain. IBD symptoms are chronic, and although controllable, relapse is common.
Nutritional Counseling
As a patient focused practice, we understand how important it is to make your experience as smooth as possible. That’s why we have outlined helpful resources below related to diet and nutrition, registration, insurance and billing, and Protected Health Information (PHI).
Primary Care
Patients with persistent gastrointestinal symptoms should visit their primary care physician or a gastroenterologist for an accurate diagnosis. Like any disease, treatment is straightforward if either condition gets diagnosed early. For this reason, you should see a doctor as soon as you start to experience the tell-tale symptoms of these GI tract conditions.
Colonoscopy
Please stop taking all diuretic medications (Lasix, Furosemide, Spironolactone, Aldactone, Hydrochlorothiazide Etc.) the day prior to your colonoscopy. This does not include patients that are having upper endoscopy (EGD). If your blood pressure medications contains a diuretic it is ok to take that.
Constipation
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are two common conditions that affect the gut. Both are chronic illnesses typified by abdominal pains, urgent bowel movements, and cramping. For this reason, it isn’t surprising that the two conditions get confused with each other.
Diarrhea
Immunizations
If you have not voiced an objection, we may share your health information with a family member, relative, or close personal friend who is involved in your care or payment for your care, including following your death. Proof of Immunization.

Internal Medicine
Gastrointestinal diseases can affect various parts of the body, including the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, pancreas, liver and gallbladder. All of our physicians have had extensive training in the practice of gastroenterology and in the performance of gastrointestinal procedures. Our physicians are board-certified in internal medicine and gastroenterology.
Gastroenterology
Atlantic Coast Gastroenterology Associates is a multi-specialty group of highly trained board-certified gastroenterologists, anesthesiologists, nurse practitioners and physician assistants working in close harmony for your well-being. Our dedicated team places high quality care as their top priority.
Colon Cancer
A high fiber diet is used to treat several gastrointestinal conditions. These include irritable bowel syndrome, diverticulosis and internal/external hemorrhoids. Some research data also indicates that increasing the amount of fiber in your diet may decrease the incidence of colon cancer. In addition, the American Cancer Society and the U.S. Government both recommend a diet with 35-39 grams of fiber per day. Such a diet may also improve your cholesterol and help prevent heart disease.
Endoscopy
We do not have procedure times until the day prior to your scheduled test. Someone must drive you home from the facility the day of your procedure.

Mental Health
We may use your health information or share it with others when necessary to prevent a serious and imminent threat to your health or safety, or the health or safety of another person or the public. In such cases, we will only share your information with someone able to help prevent the threat. We may also disclose your health information to law enforcement officers if you tell us that you participated in a violent crime that may have caused serious physical harm to another person (unless you admitted that fact while in counseling), or if we determine that you escaped from lawful custody (such as a prison or mental health institution).

Ultrasound
MRI
Sometimes, CT and MRI scans can help make an appropriate diagnosis and establish the extent of damage to the intestines. Likewise, since colitis is a chronic disease, a critical component of treatment entails careful management so that patients can control their symptoms better. Antibiotics, lifestyle changes, antidiarrheal drugs, and surgery can also treat colitis, depending on the severity of the condition.

Ulcer
Use: It is appropriate for people with peptic ulcer disease, chronic gastritis, reflux esophagitis or dyspepsia. It may also be used in the treatment of hiatal hernia.
