Sometimes patients may need a more advanced endoscopic procedure as part of the diagnostic or treatment process. 

  • The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center’s therapeutic endoscopists are specially trained gastroenterologists who can offer various types of complex endoscopies to diagnose or treat various conditions. 
  • Each endoscopist discusses recommended procedures in detail to make sure patients are comfortable with and understand their individual care plan.
