Typically patients are first seen in Dr. Gajula's office to evaluate their condition.  Following this,  Dr. Gajula's office typically sets up a procedure at a hospital or medical facility.  In most cases a further visit to the doctor's office might be necessary to discuss results and special follow-up treatments.

Patients: If you are scheduled for a procedure, please make sure that you follow the instructions given by your doctor and nurses that relate to your procedure.  Poor preparation might necessitate repeat of the procedure.  For information about gastrointestinal diseases and procedures please visit the following websites:
