Crystal River’s Best GI Doctors

Our gastroenterologists and staff at Citrus Endoscopy and Surgery Center are dedicated to providing quality, affordable care to the community in our quest to lower colon cancer rates and treat an array of digestive diseases, including Crohn’s Disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

We believe in compassionate medicine, where patients feel reassured and unrushed. We hold ourselves to the highest of standards, as our center is accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC).

Our board-certified GI doctors specialize in a myriad of GI procedures, including colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy and upper endoscopy.

Our adenoma detection rate (ADR), the rate at which our GI doctors identify adenomatous colon polyps, far surpasses the national benchmark of 25 percent. See our scores. Additionally, our patients value the compassionate care they receive from our GI doctors and say they are likely to recommend our center for GI procedures.

If you are due for a colonoscopy or in need of a GI procedure, don’t put it off any longer. Give us a call today!
