Procedures I perform

EGD

This is an extremely safe, short (15-20 minutes) outpatient procedure useful for diagnosis and treatment of many GI diseases.

Endoscopic Ultrasound

Using sound waves, EUS allows visualization, diagnosis and treatment of diseases both within and outside the GI tract

ERCP

A specialized procedure used to treat diseases of bile ducts, pancreas and the gallbladder.

Endoluminal stenting

Placing stents to treat blockages and leaks affecting the GI tract. Suturing devices can be used to anchor stents in place.

Deep Enteroscopy

Investigating small bowel pathologies and looking for obscure causes of intestinal bleeding requires high degree of expertise.

EUS guided Bile duct and Pancreatic duct interventions

When conventional ERCP fails, EUS helps gain access to both bile duct and pancreatic duct for interventions. 

Ablative therapies

Using various forms of energy to manage diseased area of the GI tract.

EUS guided Cystgastrostomy and Necrosectomy

EUS-guided therapy is the standard of care for symptomatic and/or complex cases of pancreatic pseudocysts and necrotic collection. 

Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD)

ESD is a highly specialized technique that allows us to remove early cancers with clear margins and obviates need for surgical procedures.

Endoluminal suturing

Using sutures is a novel technique that can be used for endoscopic weight loss procedures (sleeve), anchoring stents, treatment of iatrogenic perforations among other uses.
