Summary
- I am a General Gastroenterologist that will evaluate patients with any gastrointestinal conditions. My areas of clinical interests are therapeutic endoscopy (both ERCP and EUS), bariatric surgical complications, and inflammatory bowel disease. Providing second opinions and managing patients with complex medical conditions are the core of my practice, but I am willing to see any patients from the most basic screening procedures to managing the most complex patients. As the Clinical Chief of Gastroenterology at Houston Methodist Hospital and a member of the Underwood Center for Digestive Disorders at Houston Methodist Hospital, I have the assistance of multiple other specialists with unique skills at handling these complex patients.
