Understanding Digestive Diseases
The digestive system is a complex network that plays a vital role in processing the food we eat, absorbing nutrients, and eliminating waste. When any part of this system is disrupted, it can lead to a range of conditions, such as:
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
Pancreatitis
Liver Disorders
Colon Polyps and Cancer
Our comprehensive approach means we look beyond just treating symptoms—we work to identify and address the underlying causes of your discomfort.

FAQs About Digestive Disease Specialists
Where are your Houston offices?
We see patients at 7919 Kirby Dr, Houston, TX 77054 and at 1213 Hermann Drive, Suite 360, Houston, TX 77004, with our own endoscopy suite on site.
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.

Yes. We hold openings for same-day and next-day visits and we accept walk-ins. Call (713) 393-7744 and our team will find the earliest appointment that fits your situation.
Who will be treating me?
Care is led by Dr. Ahmad Farooq, a board-certified gastroenterologist and hepatologist trained at Yale School of Medicine and Duke University, supported by Dr. Ghulam Ilyas in in-house GI pathology, Dr. Anaum Maqsood in oncology, Dr. Marc F. Catalano in advanced endoscopy, and Dr. Larry Tong in anesthesiology.
Are procedures done on site or at a hospital?
Nearly everything is done in our own endoscopy suite — colonoscopy, EGD, endoscopic ultrasound, capsule endoscopy, and ERCP — and biopsies are read in house by our GI pathologist. That means fewer trips, faster results, and no separate hospital scheduling for most patients.
