Procedures Performed

Common outpatient procedures performed at this ambulatory surgery center, based on reported specialties.

Gastroenterology (GI Surgery)6
ColonoscopyA flexible camera examines the full length of the colon to screen for cancer and remove polyps before they become cancerous. Done under sedation, it typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. The bowel prep the day before is the part most patients find hardest.Upper Endoscopy (EGD)A thin camera passed through the mouth examines the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine. Used to investigate persistent heartburn, difficulty swallowing, unexplained bleeding, or abdominal pain. Usually takes 15 to 30 minutes under sedation.Flexible SigmoidoscopyExamines the lower portion of the colon only, rather than its full length. Preparation is lighter than a full colonoscopy and sedation is sometimes unnecessary, but it cannot detect problems higher in the colon.Capsule EndoscopyYou swallow a vitamin-sized camera that photographs the small intestine as it passes through — a region that standard scopes cannot easily reach. There is no sedation and no recovery. The capsule passes naturally, and images are reviewed after the fact.ERCPCombines endoscopy and X-ray imaging to diagnose and treat blockages in the bile and pancreatic ducts, most often gallstones stuck in a duct. Unlike a routine endoscopy, it carries a meaningful risk of pancreatitis afterward, so it is used when treatment is likely rather than for screening alone.Hemorrhoid TreatmentShrinks or removes swollen veins in the rectum and anus using rubber band ligation, injection, or surgical removal depending on severity. Banding is quick and typically requires no anesthesia; surgical removal is more effective for advanced cases but recovery is noticeably more uncomfortable.

I was extremely nervous about the procedure and the results. Dr. Li made me feel much calmer and relaxed. The staff were courteous and helpful. GI North made the whole experience easier.

I met with Sam a few days ago for a follow up. He’s really good. He answered all my questions then scheduled a couple of tests. He seemed to be very caring about the problems I was having. A very pleasant & caring physician assistant. As always the staff are very friendly & nice.

Dr. Simon Cofrancesco and the entire team at GI North were absolutely fantastic. From start to finish, I felt genuinely cared for, heard, and supported. They took the time to listen to all of my health concerns and made me feel confident in my care every step of the way. I would wholeheartedly recommend GI North to my family and loved ones. You can clearly see that this team truly works as a unit and collaborates seamlessly. As a former scrub tech, I recognize strong teamwork in both the OR and the clinic, and I am grateful to have experienced firsthand the positive impact that level of coordination and professionalism had on my care.
