Medical Weight Loss
Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory condition that can affect the entire thickness of the bowel wall or any part of the GI (gastrointestinal) tract, sometimes leaving patches of diseased intestine among the normal areas. The symptoms that can result include abdominal pain, weight loss, bowel urgency, diarrhea, and blood in the stool. Although Crohn’s disease is a chronic condition that cannot be cured, it can often be controlled with the proper treatment.

Primary Care
We participate with most insurance companies for patients age 16 and up. Our office staff makes every effort to be well informed regarding insurance; however, it is your responsibility to be familiar with your particular policy. Please check prior to your appointment if your physician is in your network or if you have any pre-existing conditions on your policy (see below). If your insurance requires an insurance referral from your primary care physician, it is your responsibility to obtain that referral. If you do not provide us with a referral, you are assuming responsibility for payment of that visit. If you do not have insurance, please contact our office prior to your appointment for payment options.
Emergency Care
** In the event of an extreme emergency, please call 911. Proceed to the nearest hospital emergency room, where we can be notified regarding your situation.
Colonoscopy
Remember you cannot eat or drink anything after midnight the night before your procedure. You may take your usual medications on the day of your exam unless otherwise instructed. Please take those medications with just enough water to swallow. You will not be able to drive home after your colonoscopy or EGD because of intravenous sedation. Please have a responsible adult available to take you home later that day. If any questions arise, please do not hesitate to contact us. Your safety is very important to us.
Constipation
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) occurs with the colon does not contract with its normal wavelike motions, and instead moves more slowly or more quickly, or when contractions become disorganized (spastic colon). This can cause periods of pain, cramping, diarrhea, and constipation.

There are many causes for chronic diarrhea, and the appropriate diagnosis can be achieved with a correlation of data from history, physical examination, laboratory test, x-rays and/or endoscopy studies.

Ulcer
Peptic ulcer disease is the most common type of ulcer in the GI tract. It is caused when acids in the digestive system corrode the stomach lining. Ulcers also can be caused by certain bacteria (Helicobacter pylori or H-pylori) or medicines (aspirin, warfarin, and NSAIDs).
