Those are the site's own words about its services; whether any particular service, screening or treatment applies to a given person is a question for the practice's physicians, not something this description answers. Services named on the site include colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy, fibroscans, percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube placement, upper endoscopy (EGD) and abdominal ultrasound. The practice publishes its site in English and in Spanish: a Spanish version at https://cdmgastro.com/index_spanish.html carries the same material under the heading "Centro de Medicina Digestiva." The phone number given throughout is 305.273.6266. The website does not publish prices, rates or fees, does not publish appointment availability, and does not publish separate emergency or after-hours instructions.

The descriptions below are the site's own general explanations of what each procedure is. They are not advice about whether a person needs one, when to have one, or what a result would mean, and the site itself says its informational content "does not replace professional medical advice you receive from your physician." a colonoscope is a flexible, steerable instrument used to evaluate the entire colon, engineered so that biopsies can be obtained and polyps removed. Flexible sigmoidoscopy uses a narrow tube with a light and camera to look inside the rectum and lower colon. A fibroscan is described as a non-invasive device that assesses the stiffness of the liver by transient elastography. PEG is described as placing a feeding tube through the abdominal wall into the stomach so that nutrition, fluids or medications bypass the mouth and esophagus. Upper endoscopy examines the lining of the esophagus, stomach and duodenum. Abdominal ultrasound is described as an imaging test used to look at organs in the abdomen including the liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas and kidneys. The site says the clinic and the endoscopy center are in the same location, calls the center a "fully Accredited Office Endoscopy center," and lists convenience, ease of use and infection control measures among the benefits it describes for office-based endoscopy. No prices, costs or fees for any procedure appear on the site, and no scheduling or availability information is published. Procedure questions go to the office by phone at 305.273.6266.
