The Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at Mayo Clinic specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases of the digestive tract and liver. It is a large practice with state-of-the-art facilities.
The division is organized around specialty groups oriented toward disease processes, organ systems, procedures, and patient groups. Clinical expertise is integrated with the newest forms of established and experimental diagnostic and therapeutic methods. Patient care is provided by teams of physicians and other health care staff with broad expertise in all forms of gastroenterological and hepatobiliary diseases.
Patients with esophageal disorders are treated by the Esophageal Interest Group and the Esophageal clinic, with a staff of five physicians. They are supported by a physician assistant, world-class motility lab, and work in close collaboration with thoracic and general surgeons, pathologists, and radiologists. Patients seen weekly in clinic have conditions that span the entire spectrum of esophageal diseases.
Because high-quality care depends upon scientific discovery, major research programs at the basic, applied, and translational levels exist to generate new knowledge that ultimately improve patient care.

Interests:
In addition to caring for patients in their clinical practices, Mayo Clinic's faculty members are committed to teaching and facilitating the growth of medical knowledge. Many of our faculty have published and lectured extensively and are highly regarded in their fields.
I am impressed with how hands-on the faculty are in helping guide my education and training. They are always available for questions and extending their expertise whether it is for research mentorship, clinical practice, interpretation of physiologic testing, or endoscopic techniques. Our faculty are also excellent at sponsoring us to present at national and international conferences.
