    Digestive Care

    Most digestive health problems can be handled by your primary care physician, but if you need a higher level of care your doctor may refer you to a gastroenterologist. Sutter’s highly trained gastroenterology experts are equipped to pinpoint the specific cause of your digestive tract issues, putting you on the path to better health.

    Evaluation and Diagnostic Services

    Whether you need a routine screening such as a stool blood test or a more advanced procedure, most of our diagnostic tests are performed on an outpatient basis. We use minimally invasive endoscopic procedures, advanced imaging techniques and innovative technology to visualize your digestive tract and diagnose your condition without surgical intervention

    Motility Services

    If you experience chronic abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, indigestion, vomiting or bloating caused by muscle spasms, you may have a motility disorder—the abnormal movement of food, liquid and waste through your digestive system. These disorders range from the common irritable bowel syndrome, gastroesophageal reflux disease and fecal incontinence to the more rare gastroparesis. Any part of the gastrointestinal tract, including the esophagus, stomach, small intestines and colon can be affected by a motility disorder.

    To diagnose and understand your individual digestive issues, we provide a wide range of motility tests. Gastroenterologists in the Sutter Health network offer treatment for motility disorders such as achalasia, Barrett’s esophagus, swallowing disorders, chronic constipation and more. We offer a full range of motility and gastroenterology care, including fecal incontinence therapy.

    Sutter hospitals throughout Northern California have been named top performers by the Integrated Healthcare Association for high colon cancer screening rates that lead to early cancer detection and better patient outcomes. Hospitals and doctors across the network are ranked by the U.S. News & World Report as some of the highest performing in the nation for gastroenterology services. The American Neurogastroenterology and Motility Society, a professional organization of physicians and researchers, lists Sutter Health affiliates in its registry of laboratories performing high-quality motility procedures.

    There are many types of digestive diseases, including celiac disease, heartburn and ulcers. They occur when some part of the body’s complex digestive system doesn’t work well. Without healthy digestion, our bodies can’t get enough nutrients and energy from food.
