FAQs About Specialized GI & Liver Care
What makes your care 'specialized' rather than general gastroenterology?
Our team is led by Dr. Ahmad Farooq, trained at Yale School of Medicine and Duke University, and Dr. Marc F. Catalano in advanced pancreaticobiliary endoscopy. We pair that subspecialty depth with an on-site endoscopy suite, in-house GI pathology, FibroScan®, and an oncology program — so complex cases are handled in one practice rather than referred out.
Which conditions do you specialize in?
GERD and reflux, IBS, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, colon polyps and colorectal cancer, chronic and acute pancreatitis, gallstones and biliary disease, small bowel and celiac disease, and the full range of liver conditions — fatty liver disease (NAFLD/NASH), autoimmune liver disease, hepatitis, and cirrhosis.
What advanced procedures do you perform on site?
Colonoscopy, EGD, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), ERCP, capsule endoscopy, liver biopsy, FibroScan®, esophageal manometry, small bowel enteroscopy, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), and Barrett's esophagus ablation.
How quickly can I see a specialist?
We hold openings for same-day and next-day visits and accept walk-ins. Call (713) 393-7744 and our team will find the earliest appointment rather than putting you on a long waitlist.
Do you accept insurance, and what if I do not have any?
We accept most major insurance plans and verify your benefits before your visit. If you are uninsured, we offer transparent all-inclusive self-pay pricing, so you know the cost before anything is scheduled.
