Common GI Problems

Gastrointestinal issues can be painful and uncomfortable. Our gastroenterologists are here to help you feel better. Our board-certified gastroenterologists provide patients with a wide variety of procedures and treatments to aid these GI problems. Digestive diseases cause disorders in the gastrointestinal tract. These conditions can range from mild to severe, however, many common GI problems are diagnosable and treatable with help from your gastroenterologist. With endoscopic procedures, you will be able to understand what is causing your gastrointestinal issues and how they may be treated.

Common digestive disorders include heartburn, IBS, and lactose intolerance. The gastrointestinal tract is made up of the esophagus (food tube), stomach, large and small intestines, liver, pancreas, and the gallbladder. While a GI problem such as acid reflux or GERD can lead to difficulty swallowing, inflammation of the esophagus, or even cancer of the esophagus, another GI issue can manifest as cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea and/or constipation.
