Patient Information

Austin Gastroenterology is the largest group of physicians specializing in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of gastrointestinal diseases in Central Texas. Our 20 board certified gastroenterologists see patients at our ten office facilities in Austin and the surrounding areas. They perform endoscopic procedures at our two licensed (Medicare and State) and accredited state-of-the-art endoscopic ambulatory surgery centers. They also perform a complete range of appropriate gastroenterologic endoscopic procedures in major area hospitals.

During your initial visit, you may see one of our board certified gastroenterologists who will determine the necessity for an endoscopic or manometric procedure. You may also see a Certified Physician Assistant to determine the need for a procedure. If a procedure is needed, you will be directed to a scheduler who will coordinate your appointment.

Austin Gastroenterology and Austin Endoscopy Centers are committed to “Patient-Focused Care,” What this means to us is that everything we do is orchestrated around our patients. By being patient-focused, we will do the following:

  • We will respect your values, preferences, and expressed needs.
  • We will do our best to coordinate with and include you in information about your treatment plan.
  • We will provide education to you as necessary and as requested.
  • We will do whatever we can to maintain your comfort.
  • We will provide emotional support to help alleviate your fear and anxiety.
  • We will involve your family and friends in your case as you wish.
