Why Gastroenterology?

I specialized in GI care because I find the field to be mentally stimulating and rewarding. It provides the opportunity to improve quality of life for patients through management of their chronic GI problems, help decrease risk of colon cancer, and also perform potentially life saving interventions in high acuity situations such as GI bleeds.
