Patient sedation is managed by our Department of Anesthesiology. Our endoscopy team comprises experienced gastroenterologists and general surgeons who have extensive experience in performing the following procedures:
- Bronchoscopy
- Capsule study endoscopy
- Colonoscopy (colon cancer screenings)
- Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD)
- Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)
- Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy Tube insertion (PEG tube)

Most procedures are outpatient, so you can typically go home shortly after the procedure is done.
