Medical Weight Loss
Some people, who were recently infected with HCV, may develop symptoms of fatigue, abdominal pain, poor appetite, or jaundice. Once a person starts to develop cirrhosis, more symptoms may develop including muscle weakness, weight loss, abdominal swelling, vomiting blood, blood in the stool and confusion.
Primary Care
You should take your blood pressure medication, heart medication, and medication for seizures and inhalers. Do not take blood thinners. All other medications should be held until after the procedure. If you are diabetic please call your primary care doctor for adjustments in your insulin dosage.
Colonoscopy
Bowel preparation for colonoscopy is performed the evening before the procedure. This allows for total cleansing of the colon and clear visibility during the colonoscopy procedure. A clear bowel preparation ensures an accurate examination and best results. Each patient will be given specific instructions regarding a bowel preparation prescribed by his or her gastroenterologist. The lowest-volume, safest, and most effective preparation solutions will be utilized, based on your medical history.
Constipation
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a disturbance of the colonic function. It is usually characterized by abdominal discomfort, bloating and abnormal bowel movements. While it is not necessary to have abnormal bowel movements, IBS is usually characterized by either diarrhea, constipation or diarrhea alternating with constipation. Abdominal discomfort and bloating is often relieved by a bowel movement.
Diarrhea
Bowel incontinence is a frequent and debilitating condition that may result from many different causes. It is defined as the uncontrolled passage of feces or gas over at least 1 monthâ€™s duration, in an individual of at least 4 years of age, who previously had bowel control.
Immunizations

Pregnancy
Labor and Delivery
Celiac disease can sometimes be triggered or become active for the first time after surgery, pregnancy, childbirth, viral infection or severe emotional stress. Some gene variations also increase the risk of developing the disease, but having those gene variants does not mean you will get celiac disease. This suggests that additional factors are involved.

Internal Medicine
All of PA GIâ€™s gastroenterologists are Board Certified and have met all requirements of the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM). Certification means that doctors have demonstrated, to their peers and to the public, that they have the clinical judgement, skills and attitude essential for the delivery of excellent patient care.
Gastroenterology
The physicians of Pennsylvania Gastroenterology Consultants (PA GI) will maintain an ongoing record of all of your visits with documentation of your symptoms, physical examination, test results, diagnoses, and treatment plans. This information is your electronic health record (EHR). It serves as the basis for planning and communication of your care within PA GI and with other health professionals of your choice. Pennsylvania Gastroenterology Consultants and Digestive Disease Institute have been on the forefront of EHR use since 2005. We continue to advance the effectiveness of our EHR, consistent with the latest federal government recommendations for improving patient care and safety.
Colon Cancer
Colon cancer usually begins as a colon polyp. Colon polyps are small growths on the inner lining of the colon. Some polyps (adenoma) have a greater risk for growing into cancer if not removed from the colon lining.
Endoscopy
The majority of procedures performed by PA GIâ€™s gastroenterologists for diagnosis or treatment can be done in our adjoining endoscopy center. The Digestive Disease Institute (DDI) is a state-of-the-art endoscopy center designed to provide patients with the highest possible level of care from pre-procedure preparation through recovery. PA GIâ€™s team of highly trained medical professionals keep patients comfortable and well informed throughout the entire process.

Ultrasound
Radial endoscopic ultrasound is a diagnostic technique that allows for detailed internal ultrasound evaluation of digestive structures. The esophagus, stomach, pancreas, and biliary system are evaluated by combining endoscopy and ultrasound. This is a sedated endoscopic procedure similar to upper endoscopy that is performed in the hospital outpatient setting.
MRI
There is no one test to diagnose Crohnâ€™s disease. A gastroenterologist will likely use a combination of tests to help confirm a diagnosis of Crohnâ€™s disease. Blood tests for anemia or infection and fecal occult blood test may be used. A colonoscopy, CT scan, MRI, capsule endoscopy and balloon-assisted enteroscopy can also assist in the diagnosis of Crohnâ€™s disease.
Computed Tomography

Ulcer
The expert gastroenterologists at PA GI are trained to perform therapeutic endoscopy. Therapeutic interventions include: polyp removal, ulcer treatment, control of bleeding, stricture dilation, feeding tube placement, and biliary endoscopy. Most therapeutic interventions are completed at the time of your procedure and do not require additional procedures.

Physical Therapists

Physical Therapy
Initial treatment options include dietary or lifestyle changes; bowel retraining or other kinds of physical therapy or anti-diarrheal medications. More advanced treatment options include surgery or implanting Sacral Neuromodulation.
