Your care is our priority and we’re dedicated to keeping you informed and comfortable throughout your treatment. At our Durand hospital, your team of digestive health specialists will help you understand your treatment options and find the right care for you. If surgery is the best course of treatment, we'll make sure you and your family are guided through every part of the process, before, during, and after your procedure. Our skilled surgical team performs a range of effective Digestive Care procedures, including:

• Cholecystectomy — A surgical procedure used to remove the gallbladder
• Colonoscopy — A diagnostic technique that is also used to treat some gastrointestinal issues which uses a flexible tube with a camera at its tip, gently inserted through the rectum
• Endoscopy — A nonsurgical procedure that lets your care team look inside your body using a lighted tube with a camera on the end
• Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) — A procedure used to diagnose and treat issues with the gastrointestinal tract, using a thin tube with a camera on the end that is passed gently down your throat
• Hernia Surgery — A surgical procedure used to repair hernias
• Laparoscopy — A minimally invasive surgical technique that allows your care team to operate through small incisions

We believe in looking after you physically, emotionally, and spiritually. That means something different for everyone, because your needs are individual to you. From helping you create a personalized diet plan to providing the support you need to quit smoking or lose weight, your care will always be tailored around you. Your care team is here to offer comfort and guidance at every step in your wellness journey.

Your life is full of excitement and new discoveries. When you feel great, you might not give a second thought to your digestive health care. But being proactive is the best way to keep things fully on track. We’re here to guide you. If you’re over 50 or have a family history of colon cancer, your Digestive Care team at AdventHealth Durand may recommend that you come in for regular colonoscopy screenings. We’ll help make sure you’re relaxed and informed at every step. It doesn’t take long, and you’ll be back to your normal routine in no time, with the peace of mind to embrace the next adventure.
