Diagnosing Pediatric Gastroenterology Conditions With the Latest Technology
No one wants to see their child suffer from a gastrointestinal condition. But when you choose to bring your child to one of our New Jersey Pediatric Gastroenterology Centers, you are choosing a healthcare system equipped with the latest in diagnosis and testing capabilities.
Our centers treat everything from common disorders such as heartburn and ulcers to even more complicated conditions such as unexplained bleeding, gallstones and blocked digestive passages.
But to determine what’s wrong with your child, our board-certified gastroenterologists and colorectal surgeons use technologies such as fiber optics, endoscopic ultrasound and lasers. These valuable tools allow for more accurate diagnosis and provide non-surgical treatment options for both admitted and same-day patients.

- Upper GI Endoscopy
- Colonoscopy
- Capsule Endoscopy (Pillcam®)
- Breath Testing For Sugar Intolerance (Lactose, Fructose, Sucrose)
