Osteoporosis
Medical Weight Loss
Your doctor will discuss possible treatments with you, depending on the cause of your liver disease. A high-calorie diet may be recommended to combat weight loss.
Primary Care
We strive to make it more convenient to get you the timely care you need. While we don’t require patients to be referred by another physician, we encourage you to have a primary care physician or internist manage your general medical care. If referred by your primary care physician, they will receive a formal report including your diagnosis, test results and recommendations for treatment and follow-up.
Emergency Care
While you may not require emergency care, we recommend making an appointment with your gastroenterologist if you experience frequent or severe GERD symptoms, or rely on over-the-counter medications to remedy heartburn more than twice a week.
Colonoscopy
Charleston GI’s Open Access Colonoscopy Program allows patients without gastrointestinal symptoms or other health risk factors to more conveniently schedule a colonoscopy without a referral and/or office visit.
Constipation
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
When functioning properly, the muscles of the digestive tract contract to move food through. Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) occurs when normal digestive tract motility is disrupted, causing uncomfortable symptoms that affect about 1 in 6 Americans.
Urinary Incontinence
Diarrhea
Immunizations
Hepatitis A is a liver infection caused by the hepatitis A virus. It is highly contagious and spreads through contaminated water or food, or direct contact with an infected person. Hepatitis A can be prevented through vaccinations.

Pregnancy
As it turns out, hemorrhoids are quite common in both men and women. About half of all people will experience hemorrhoids by age 50. Hemorrhoids are also very common in women during pregnancy and childbirth.
Labor and Delivery
Women, especially while pregnant and after childbirth, have a higher chance of becoming constipated. Fluctuating hormone levels may be to blame, as well as the baby’s position in the womb.

Endoscopy
Charleston GI’s Summerville Endoscopy Center is the first of its kind in Dorchester County. Prior to its opening, our county lacked a free-standing endoscopy center that is owned and operated by independent, board-certified gastroenterologists.

Then, following the capsule ingestion, unless your physician instructs you otherwise, you will be permitted to drink clear liquids after two hours and eat a light meal after four hours.

After ingesting the capsule and until it is excreted, you should not have a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) examination or be near an MRI machine.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
Pancreatic concerns are one of the most common reasons that patients receive an endoscopic ultrasound. The EUS procedure may follow abnormal findings detected on abdominal ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, or blood test. Specific types of abdominal pain may also warrant an endoscopic ultrasound. Your GI doctor may recommend a EUS procedure if you have one of the following...
Chemotherapy
The most common cause of diarrhea is viral gastroenteritis, a mild viral infection known as the stomach flu. Food poisoning and traveler’s diarrhea are two other common causes of diarrhea, resulting from the consumption of contaminated food or water. Medications, especially antibiotics, laxatives containing magnesium, and chemotherapy for cancer treatment, can also cause diarrhea.
Radiation Therapy
Diarrhea can have various possible causes, including the following: bacterial infection, food allergy/intolerance, reaction to medication, radiation therapy, consumption of food that upsets digestion, parasites, and food malabsorption.
