General Practitioners

Medical Weight Loss
Colonoscopy is helpful in determining the cause of abdominal pain, bleeding, weight loss, or changes in bowel habits. It can also be used to obtain a biopsy of abnormal tissue, treat bleeding, and remove polyps.
Primary Care
AG physicians provide ongoing updates to any and all primary care and/or referring provider as documented in your medical records.
Emergency Care
In the event of a life-threatening medical emergency, call emergency medical services at 911 immediately. DO NOT WAIT! Inform the emergency room staff that you are a patient of Austin Gastroenterology and they will contact us.
Colonoscopy
At AG, we understand that the idea of having a colonoscopy can seem overwhelming. We do our best to make the process as easy as possible. You will generally only need to be off of work for the day of the procedure. Plus, the new formulations of bowel prep are much more tolerable than they used to be.
Constipation
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
In our service to the Central Texas area since 1980, Austin Gastro has contributed to major advances in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases. In the last ten years we have participated in trials that helped to create the modern standard of care for hepatitis C, and have tested new treatments for Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, GERD, and irritable bowel syndrome. We've also participated in trials of popular drugs such as Humira®, Remicade®, Nexium®, and Cimzia®. All in all, our physicians have participated in over 70 clinical trials.
Diarrhea

Pregnancy

Internal Medicine
American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) certification has been the highest standard for internal medicine — and its 19 subspecialties — for over 70 years. ABIM certification means that our internists have the clinical judgment, skills, and attitudes necessary to deliver excellent patient care.
Gastroenterology
Austin Gastroenterology is an independent group of physicians practicing in Central Texas. We cover virtually every hospital in the Austin metropolitan area, including...
Colon Cancer
AG is proud to sponsor and participate in various fundraisers within our community, such as the Get Your Rear in Gear 5K for the Colon Cancer Coalition and the Take Steps walk for the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation. See past year’s events below.
Endoscopy
Due to continued inclement weather conditions, all Austin Gastro offices and Austin Endoscopy Centers will remain closed through Thursday, February 18th.
Cancer Care

Mental Health
The Texas Department of State Health Services promotes optimal health for individuals and communities while providing effective health, mental health, and substance abuse services to Texans.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Hypothyroidism
Your doctor will conduct a physical examination and test your stools and blood. Your thyroid functioning may also be assessed, as hypothyroidism can contribute to constipation.
Thyroid

Ultrasound
Advanced endoscopic procedures, including Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) and Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) , are used as both diagnostic and therapeutic tools to obtain high-quality images of the digestive tract and its adjacent structures such as the pancreas.
Radiology
Austin Gastroenterology is the first and largest group of physicians in Central Texas specializing in gastroenterology. At AG, we stand behind our reputation as Central Texas' best choice for internal health. We have expertise in gastroenterology, GI radiology, hepatology (liver) and hepatobiliary systems. We invite you to learn more about our practice.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
"Dr. Carl Frank has been my doctor for over 12 years.. He listens and his pleasant manner easily puts you at ease. He always knows when my reflux problem needs a check. I was having some unusual discomfort in the area of my intestines. He ordered a CT scan to be sure of what was going on. The results were that there was a possible malignancy in my uterus and water on my kidney. There was no evidence that the problem was from my colon. I am so thankful to him for being thorough and for saving my life. Needless to say, I am fortunate to have found a doctor like Dr. Carl Frank who is always there for his patients." -MW

Ulcer
Lesions
This means that Austin Gastro physicians have a higher chance of finding precancerous polyps and lesions before they have a chance to develop into cancer – and you have a lower chance of complications.
