If your child is experiencing a medical issue, you want the very best pediatric doctor you can find. At Providence Pediatric Gastroenterology, we specialize in the care of children who have medical conditions involving the digestive system, liver and pancreas.

We understand these illnesses may impact your growing child much differently than they impact adults. And that is why we go to great lengths to make your child feel comfortable and safe while we work to diagnose and treat the cause of their symptoms.

At Providence Pediatric Gastroenterology, our professionals treat a wide range of illnesses in babies, children and teenagers, including:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Celiac disease
  • Crohn’s disease
  • Congenital bowel dysfunction
  • Constipation or diarrhea
  • Feeding intolerance
  • Failure to thrive
  • Food allergies
  • Gastroesophageal reflux (GERD)

  • Hirschsprung’s disease
  • Intestinal motility disorders
  • Liver disorders
  • Malabsorption
  • Pancreatitis
  • Peptic disease
  • Post-surgical fecal incontinence
  • Ulcerative colitis
  • Unexplained vomiting
  • To diagnose and treat your child’s medical condition, we may perform certain services and procedures, including:

    • Breath hydrogen analysis
    • Colonoscopy
    • Esophagogastroduodenoscopy
    • Flexible sigmoidoscopy
    • Foreign body retrieval from esophagus and stomach
    • Impedance and pH problem monitoring for gastroesophageal reflux
    • Liver biopsy
    • Nutrition support
    • Placement of percutaneous gastrostomy tubes
