About Advanced Digestive Care

Our Practice Philosophy can be summarized in a few words. Our patients should feel welcomed and cared for from the time they walk into the office to the time they return to the primary care physician. Here at Advanced Digestive Care, we don’t just see patients, we care for them. From the time a patient is referred to the office, the aim is to meet and exceed the needs of the patients.

Our Motto: Specialized technology... individualized care.

We are very aware that we are dealing in the most precious commodity on earth, the human life.

We provide comprehensive Gastrointesinal care including Colon Cancer Screening, Reflux Disease (GERD), Swallowing Disorders, Ulcer Disease, IBS, Crohn’s Disease, Colitis, Pancreatic and Biliary Disease and ERCP. We are the only community practice providing Endoscopic Ultrasound Services in Tampa Bay For Your Convenience we NOW have full time offices at Clearwater and Countryside locations. We accept most major medical insurance plans. With addition of a new physician and staff we strive to see you within a week of the request. Urgent consultations are often provided the same or next day.

Procedures are performed at several area locations. These include, West Coast Endoscopy Center, Morton Plant Hospital Clearwater, Mease Countryside Hospital and at the new state of the art facility, the Safety Harbor Surgery Center From October 2010. The procedures are done mostly before noon to avoid keeping the patients fasting for too long.

We strive to do our best, if we fall short please take the time to tell us. If we meet or exceed your expectations, please tell others.
