As a result, the group is able to keep referring physicians completely informed about their patients’ diagnosis and treatment. In addition to its broad experience with a wide range of pediatric gastrointestinal disorders, many complex, the group offers additional expertise in the areas of pediatric motility disorders, liver disease and transplantation, and emergency medicine. Patient-focused approach. The multicultural team is committed to delivering quality care to patients and their families in a supportive, compassionate way. Innovative technology and treatment options. The service offers a full range of specialized tests and diagnostic procedures, many through the Pediatric STAR Unit, which offers exceptional care, while integrating “pain-free” pediatric techniques. Multidisciplinary collaboration. The team collaborates closely with other specialties at BMC. For patients who need multiple services, for example, the clinic works to arrange all of the patient’s appointments on the same day. In this way, all involved physicians can see the patient on the same day in one place, and treating physicians have the opportunity to consult easily with colleagues about the patient. Such coordination translates into exceptional care and convenience for patients, their families and referring physicians.
