We know gastrointestinal conditions can be painful and can disrupt a child's life. We’re here to help.

The General Diagnostic Gastroenterology (GI) Program cares for children from infancy to 18 years old who are experiencing common GI-related problems of childhood. We treat youth experiencing nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, reflux, vomiting, colic, milk protein allergy, poor growth or feeding difficulties, among other conditions.

Our team of experienced gastroenterologists may recommend diagnostic testing – including blood tests, radiographic studies or endoscopic interventions – to help us better understand the cause of your child’s discomfort. These tests can also help our team as we plan treatment for your child. Treatment may include medications, dietary changes, lifestyle modifications and/or counseling.
