\"\"<\/a>Providing expert care in a welcoming environment designed for comfort has been the goal for the staff of the Cooper Digestive\u00a0Health Institute <\/a>since it opened its doors in March \u00a02008. The\u00a0Institute is a full-service, adult gastroenterology program that provides comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic options for area residents.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Digestive Health Institute in Mount Laurel is the largest outpatient gastroenterology center in South Jersey,\u201d according to Steven R. Peikin, MD<\/a>, Institute Director.<\/p>\n

While it is the largest, every minute detail has been examined, from patient amenities such as computer kiosks and comfortable blankets, to superior technology including high-definition imaging and state-of-the-art endoscopy equipment.<\/p>\n

Cooper gastroenterologists provide expert care for a range of conditions including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)<\/a>, gastro- esophageal reflux disease (GERD)<\/a>, and Barrett\u2019s esophagus<\/a>. They offer a level of expertise and clinical experience unmatched in the region. Says Dr. Peikin, \u201cOur physicians perform many complex procedures that previously required hospital stays and, in some cases, surgery.\u201d<\/p>\n

These complex procedures include endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)<\/a> to evaluate the pancreas; endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) to view the upper gastrointestinal tract, and PillCam Capsule Endoscopy to view the small bowel.<\/p>\n

The goal of the Digestive Health team, which also includes a specially trained nursing staff led by Jeanne Greer, RN, is to provide superior care that returns patients to their daily living activities quickly and with little or no discomfort. Now that is something to celebrate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
