Conditions We Treat
Rocky Mountain Gastroenterology Associates’ Caring Treatment
Rocky Mountain Gastroenterology Associates’ physicians are experts in disorders and diseases of the digestive tract – including the esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas – and regularly treat diverse conditions. Many gastrointestinal illnesses are mysterious and challenging to diagnose, and many of our patients suffer from the symptoms of the disease for years before finally seeking help. We don’t want you to get these treated. Instead, make an appointment with one of our specialists immediately. If you suffer from chronic irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), then you shouldn’t allow it to disrupt your personal and professional life. The same goes for other digestive illnesses.
Some of the Most Common Gastroenterological Diseases
Our gastroenterologists see more of these conditions than any others. They’re quite common, and patients who suffer from them shouldn’t feel helpless or out of control of the situation. Some of the most frequent digestive illnesses treated at Rocky Mountain Gastroenterology Associates include:
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): Gerd is essentially chronic and severe acid reflux or heartburn. While many Denver, CO residents experience each regularly, GERD occurs much more frequently (at least twice a week). Our gastroenterologists can help you change your diet and suggest medications to relieve the symptoms.
Gallstones: Gallstones are hard deposits in your gallbladder. Because the gallbladder stores and secretes bile for digestion, gallstones can result in uncomfortable adverse effects, including sharp pains in the upper-right abdomen. Medication can resolve gallstones; however, in some cases, we have to remove the gallbladder itself.
Celiac Disease: Celiac disease prevents sufferers from digesting grains and wheat, resulting in immune system flare-ups. Fortunately, there are more treatment methods available than in the past, in addition to a wide range of gluten-free foods for consumers to choose from at the grocery store.
Crohn’s Disease: Crohn’s Disease is a part of several illnesses that result from inflammatory bowel syndrome (IBD). It impacts the terminal ileum, which connects the small bowel and the beginning of the colon, and sometimes occurs elsewhere in the digestive tract. Those with Crohn’s Disease experience diarrhea, rectal bleeding, weight loss, and fever.
