Services
Birmingham Gastroenterology Associates specializes in general gastroenterology, including diseases of the pancreas, gallbladder, and liver. We pride ourselves on being a leader in Alabama for the introduction of the newest medical technologies in gastroenterology and are an industry-selected site for new instrument introductions.
In addition to routine procedures like Colonoscopy and Endoscopy, our physicians offer many other procedures. These include ERCP to treat and diagnose gallbladder disease, Capsule Endoscopy, Endoscopic Ultrasound, and Radiofrequency Ablation of Barrett’s Esophagus. The Spyglass system during ERCP is also available to directly visualize and treat gallbladder problems. Birmingham Gastroenterology Associates has been active in new investigational treatments of chronic hepatitis C patients for two decades.
