Took my elderly mother, who is also a cancer patient there looking for a primary care doctor. I have 30 years of experience under my belt of dealing with medical professionals, and I don't give 5 stars easily. The place was immaculate, and we were greeted with smiles when we walked through the door.

When should I seek evaluation for GI symptoms?

Can a GI evaluation be done at home?
Yes. In-home evaluations allow providers to assess your symptoms and determine next steps comfortably and safely.
What causes gastrointestinal symptoms?
Causes include viral or bacterial infections, food intolerances, inflammation, acid imbalance, stress, medication side effects, or chronic digestive conditions.
Do I need testing for my GI symptoms?
Testing may be recommended based on symptom severity, duration, and associated risks. Providers may recommend labs, stool tests, or referral to Gastroenterology.
What treatments are available?
Treatment options include hydration, diet changes, antacids, anti-nausea medications, anti-diarrheal medication, fiber therapy, or antibiotics when appropriate.
Can stress or diet make GI symptoms worse?

Most insurance plans cover digestive health evaluations, treatment planning, and follow-up visits.
When is urgent care recommended?
Urgent care is recommended for severe dehydration, persistent vomiting, blood in stool, high fever, or sudden severe abdominal pain.
How long does recovery take?
Recovery varies depending on the cause. Mild GI issues resolve in days, while chronic conditions may require ongoing management.
