Diagnosis

At Cytecare, all endoscopic procedures are performed by experienced Gastroenterologists, who have specialized training in the field, in collaboration with organ specific specialists. When appropriate, our gastroenterologists collaborate with our gastrointestinal oncologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists and supportive care providers to ensure that each patient’s unique needs are met. This multispecialty approach allows us to not only produce exceptional outcomes, but also to improve each patient’s quality of life, throughout treatment and recovery.
