Our Locations

UCLA Health's interventional endoscopy team provides advanced, minimally invasive care for a wide range of digestive conditions. Our expert physicians use the latest endoscopic techniques to diagnose and treat complex disorders affecting the bile ducts, pancreas, esophagus, stomach, and colon.

These innovative procedures often allow for greater precision, less discomfort, and shorter recovery times compared with traditional surgery. Whether you need a diagnosis, treatment, or a second opinion, we work closely with you to develop a personalized care plan tailored to your needs.
