Your Gastrointestinal Cancer Care Specialists
Your body’s systems are connected. They work together in concert to keep you well and whole. When one of those systems is down, it affects your whole health. This is why, when you’re faced with a gastrointestinal-cancer diagnosis, we do more than just treat the cancer in your gastrointestinal system, we provide whole-person care that addresses your physical, emotional, and spiritual health — all of which need special care in the face of your diagnosis.
The highly respected digestive wellness experts at AdventHealth are known for leading the charge against gastrointestinal cancers — like stomach, liver, and pancreatic cancers — by participating in many of the latest clinical trials, providing multidisciplinary approaches, and guiding you gently through your treatment plan. We'll keep you informed through every phase, help you channel your strength, cheer you on, and guide you down a path to whole-person wellness.

Wellness is within reach. Catching gastrointestinal (GI) cancer early gives you more treatment options — and more reason to hope for better outcomes. But getting there means asking all of your questions and working through the answers. At AdventHealth, we pave the way by providing a safe, soothing diagnostic environment — and by giving you the latest in genetic counseling, testing, and imaging. Our imaging experts aim for same-day diagnostic test results whenever possible, so you can get answers and get started on treatment. We put the focus on getting you the full picture by offering minimally invasive diagnostic testing that includes:
- Barium Swallow
- Biopsy
- Computed Tomography (CT or CAT) Scan
- Endoscopic Ultrasound
- Endoscopy
- Laparoscopy
- MRI
- Positron Emission Tomography (PET) or PET-CT Scan
