A colonoscopy is an examination of the large intestine and rectum, used to investigate symptoms of intestinal distress and screen for colon cancer.

Best time to reach you

An Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, or EDG, is a short procedure that allows our team to examine your esophagus, stomach and duodenum. It takes less than an hour and you can go home the same day.

A Bravo pH Test may be needed if you’re experiencing heartburn, chest pain, coughing and more. The test measures the acidity of your esophagus, helping diagnose acid reflux disease.

A specialty of St. Joseph Hospital, the video capsule endoscopy involves the patient swallowing a pill-sized camera that records images of the digestive tract. It’s used to find the cause of intestinal bleeding, examine the esophagus and screen for diseases, including cancer.

Starting at the age of 45, experts now recommend that all adults, regardless of risk factors, schedule a screening colonoscopy due to increasing incidences of colon cancer in adults younger than 50.
