The latest technology. World-class therapeutic endoscopists. Exceptional researchers.

The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center’s Therapeutic Endoscopy program combines the advantages of innovative technology, nationally recognized physicians and a patient-centered approach for studying and providing advanced endoscopic solutions for complex gastrointestinal disorders. 

With a Therapeutic Endoscopy Fellowship approved by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE), we provide countless opportunities for focused learning and skill development. 

We’re constantly expanding and innovating the endoscopic procedures we perform to offer our patients the best care possible for a wide array of conditions. In addition to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), we offer endoscopic solutions for treating bile duct, pancreatic duct and gallbladder stones, diagnosing cancers and pancreatic cysts, removing large polyps, treating swallowing disorders and aiding in weight loss, to name a few. Please explore our Procedures section for comprehensive details of what we offer here at the Ohio State Wexner Medical Center.
