Gastrointestinal Health Questions
You should see an internist for stomach pain that is severe, persistent, or accompanied by other symptoms like weight loss, fever, or changes in bowel habits. We can diagnose common issues like GERD or gastritis and determine if further testing or a referral to a gastroenterologist is needed.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder affecting the large intestine, causing symptoms like cramping and bloating, but it does not cause inflammation. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a term for two conditions (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) characterized by chronic inflammation of the GI tract. We can help diagnose your symptoms and manage IBS, or coordinate care for IBD.
Internists often discover liver issues through routine blood work (liver function tests). We investigate the potential causes, such as medications, alcohol use, or fatty liver disease, and provide comprehensive management to protect your liver and overall health.
