                      Digestive Health

                      Digestive Health


                      A healthy digestive system is essential for the body to function properly. Lutheran Downtown Hospital offers gastrointestinal services, including endoscopy, to help doctors diagnose and treat digestive issues.

                      Surgeons provide treatment options for a range of digestive disorders, including:

                      • Appendicitis and peritonitis
                      • Dietary sensitivities such as celiac disease and lactose intolerance
                      • Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
                      • Gastrointestinal viruses, infections and general discomfort
                      • H. pylori and ulcers
                      • Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Crohn's disease and diverticular disease
                      • Stomach, esophageal and colorectal cancer

                      If digestive issues or concerns are keeping you from the activities you love, talk with your primary care provider today.
