Gastroenterology Services
United Health Services works closely with the physicians and staff at Binghamton Gastroenterology Associates to deliver excellent diagnosis and treatment of diseases affecting the digestive tract.
Gastroenterologists
A gastroenterologist is a physician who specializes in diseases and disorders of the digestive system—the esophagus, stomach, colon, liver and pancreas. A pediatric gastroenterologist focuses on these issues as they affect children (newborns through teens). The gastroenterologists on staff at United Health Services hospitals combine expert clinical care with the latest medical technologies in caring for patients. Find a gastroenterologist.

United Health Services Gastroenterology Laboratories
Your gastroenterologist or other physician may prescribe a procedure or test that requires you to visit one of United Health Services’ two gastroenterology laboratories—at Binghamton General Hospital and Wilson Medical Center. The Binghamton General Hospital GI Lab is the where most outpatient procedures, such as colonoscopies and gastroscopies, are performed; but each lab provides excellent care delivered by a qualified and friendly staff.
If you have questions regarding your procedure (for example, if you should take your medication before your procedure or what else you need to do to prepare for the test) please discuss these with the physician who is ordering your procedure. However, our staff will be happy to provide information to you throughout your exam so you understand what is taking place.
