Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology | UC Davis Health

Our physicians are focused on providing personalized care and help managing conditions to improve our patients’ quality of life. Physicians in the UC Davis Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology are at the forefront of medical knowledge, conducting research and educating medical students and fellows.

Our highly respected team has expertise in analyzing and treating patients who have complex gastrointestinal disorders. Those include problems that affect motility, the natural rhythmic contractions that move nutrients through the digestive tract. Gastrointestinal motility disorders, functional bowel disorders and gastroesophageal reflux disease affect about 30% of Americans. Left untreated, motility problems can cause bloating, nausea and gas. People who endure the discomfort that these conditions cause do so needlessly, because remarkable advancements have been made in technology, medications and techniques to treat these diseases. Our physicians have helped patients with many types of motility disorders and know how to manage them effectively.
