The Digestive Disease Institute offers coordinated care from specialists in gastroenterology, hepatology, various surgical fields, behavioral health and nutrition. This integrated approach aims to meet patient needs and improve their experience through shorter wait times and coordinated specialist care. Our teams in Northeast Ohio, Florida, Abu Dhabi and London handle some of the most complex cases across digestive sub-specialties, including colorectal, bariatric, GI cancer and transplant surgery. Our institute promotes advanced research and physician education, allowing us to provide patients with treatments that reflect the latest medical developments.
Our commitment to enhancing patient care is evident by our embrace of advanced medical technologies and expanding how we use AI in surgeries, patient interactions and predictive tools.
We are the first in the U.S. to offer a behavioral health section to support patients with gastrointestinal-related behavioral needs for patients with IBD, bariatric disorders, gynecologic/GI disorders and more.
Plus more than 116K endoscopic procedures and 46K+ total surgical encounters.
293 IRB-approved research studies supported by $7.4 million in research funding.
We established the world’s first dedicated Ileal Pouch Center and today perform more pouch surgeries than any other institution — maintaining one of the lowest pouch failure rates reported.
