Gastrointestinal Issues: Diagnosis & Treatment in Rockville, Gaithersburg & Columbia, MD

Digestive symptoms are common, disruptive, and very often solvable in primary care. Our physicians evaluate and treat the full range of everyday gastrointestinal problems, with on site lab testing to move from symptom to answer efficiently, and coordinated referral to gastroenterology when a procedure or specialist is truly needed.

Conditions We Evaluate and Treat

  • Acid reflux and GERD, including medication management and lifestyle strategy
  • Irritable bowel symptoms, chronic constipation, and diarrhea
  • Abdominal pain and bloating, evaluated systematically rather than dismissed
  • H. pylori testing and treatment for ulcer related symptoms
  • Unexplained changes in appetite or weight

Colon Cancer Screening, On Schedule

Screening for colorectal cancer now begins at age 45 for average risk adults. We review your risk, order stool based testing when appropriate, and coordinate colonoscopy referrals, then track the results and recall intervals so nothing slips through. When symptoms such as rectal bleeding, persistent change in bowel habits, or unintentional weight loss appear, we expedite the workup. Schedule a visit if digestive symptoms have lasted more than a couple of weeks, or if you are due for screening.
