GI Procedures
Gastrointestinal Specialists provide endoscopy procedures such as upper GI endoscopies and colonoscopies at our two Virginia Endoscopy Group sites, one located in Richmond’s West End on Staples Mill Road and the second in Southside just off Midlothian Turnpike.
We have made the endoscopy experience for our patients as cost-effective, convenient, and comfortable as possible. Our practice makes use of the anesthetic agent Propofol, which is administered by an anesthesiologist with the goal of achieving a pain-free endoscopic experience. We are also able to offer pathology at our own pathology laboratory.
