San Diego Gastroenterology

Specialist

About

Teaching faculty for the Scripps Clinic/Scripps Green Hospital Gastroenterology Fellowship Program, San Diego Gastroenterology operates from Suite 240 at 4060 Fourth Avenue alongside its affiliated San Diego Endoscopy Center on Third Avenue. The practice performs endoscopic ultrasound with fine needle aspiration for mediastinal, esophageal, pancreatic, biliary, gastric, and colorectal tumor staging, with surgical workup continuing at Scripps Mercy Hospital on Fifth Avenue where the SDG physicians also contribute to the medical resident teaching program. Motility diagnostics cover esophageal manometry, 24-hour pH studies, SmartPill wireless capsule testing, anorectal manometry with biofeedback, and hydrogen breath testing for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. EUS-guided celiac plexus block and neurolysis are offered for chronic pancreatitis and palliative abdominal cancer pain management. Fecal microbiome transplantation addresses severe recurrent Clostridioides difficile colitis, with the most debilitated patients occasionally transitioning to Select Specialty Hospital for long-term acute rehabilitation before returning to outpatient follow-up. Hepatology workups covering viral hepatitis, MASH/NAFLD, and pre-transplant evaluation round out the subspecialty program alongside biologic infusion management for inflammatory bowel disease.
