At our Center for Interventional Endoscopy (CIE), we believe you deserve care from a world-class team of skilled interventional gastroenterologists. That’s why we offer the latest advances in diagnostic and therapeutic modalities to manage a wide range of diseases, from swallowing disorders to pancreatic cancer.
Patients from around the world are referred to us for cutting-edge endoscopy treatments and clinical trials that may not be widely available at other centers. With a wealth of experience, proven approaches and a compassionate team, we’ll help you heal in body, mind and spirit.

As part of the Center for Interventional Endoscopy, our Pancreas Center provides comprehensive, multidisciplinary care for pancreatic diseases and disorders. We treat the whole you — body, mind and spirit — and focus on delivering the best possible outcomes for your better quality of life.
Third space endoscopy is an expanding field within endoscopic therapeutics and a minimally invasive alternative to treat various illnesses that were previously only treated with conventional surgery.
Endobariatric Care combines gastroenterology with bariatric, or weight-loss, surgery. By using endoscopic approaches in bariatric procedures, we can help you achieve meaningful weight-loss results with less invasive surgeries, fewer complications and a shorter recovery period.

A combination of endoscopy and fluoroscopy, ERCP is used as a diagnostic and treatment measure by our gastroenterologist team for:
SpyGlass cholangioscopy
Difficult bile-duct stones
Altered anatomy (Billroth II, gastric bypass)
Pancreatitis (recurrent, acute and chronic)
Pancreatic stenting
Failed ERCP
Ampullectomy
Sphincter of Oddi manometry
Complex endoscopy procedures in infants and children
Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS)
A low-risk diagnostic procedure, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a combination of endoscopy and ultrasound that uses sound waves to create detailed images of the inside of the body.
We use EUS for:
Fine-needle aspiration and biopsy (FNA/FNB)
Pseudocyst drainage
Pancreatic necrosis management
Celiac plexus block/neurolysis
Biliary and pancreatic drainage
Fiducial placement
Abdominal and pelvic abscess drainage
Pancreatic cyst ablation
Radiofrequency ablation
EUS-liver biopsy
EUS-guided creation of gastrojejunal anastomosis for gastric/duodenal obstruction
Tissue Resection
In a tissue resection procedure, some or all of a tissue is surgically removed. Our team takes an endoscopic approach to tissue resection for:
Resection of large polyps (precancerous and cancerous)
Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR)
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD)
Barrett’s ablation and endoscopic resection
Endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR)
Luminal Stenting
Luminal stenting involves placing stents through endoscopy. We are able to perform esophageal, gastroduodenal and colon luminal stenting.
Double Balloon Enteroscopy (DBE)
Double balloon enteroscopy is an endoscopic diagnostic technique that helps us visualize the inside of the esophagus, stomach and small intestine. We use DBE for stricture management and to identify and control internal bleeding.
Endoscopic Clipping and Suturing
Our expert surgeons can perform clipping and suturing endoscopically for fistulas and perforations.
Endoscopic Management of Bleeding
Our experienced team uses endoscopic approaches to manage acute and chronic bleeding.
Endoscopic Management of Bariatric Complications
Sometimes, complications arise from bariatric (weight-loss) surgery. We use endoscopic procedures to manage:
Stomal reduction
Pouch reduction
Fistula management
Endoscopy for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
To help manage IBD, we use endoscopic approaches, including:
Chromoendoscopy
Management of strictures and fistulas
Pouchoscopy
Management of leaks
Third Space Endoscopy
In endoscopic procedures, the third space refers to the potential area inside the wall of the gastrointestinal tract — a submucosal layer of the organ wall. Some of the most common third space endoscopy procedures our team performs are:
Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM)
Gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM)
Submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection (STER)
Additional Endoscopic Interventions
Our team also performs:
Percutaneous endoscopic transgastric jejunostomy (PEG-J), or gastrostomy/jejunostomy feeding tube
