Patient Care

Patient Care Programs

UWGI provides the highest quality of care for a wide spectrum of GI diseases to approximately 40,000 patients.  At present, we hold over 20,000 clinic visits annually and perform nearly 3000 endoscopic procedures per month. We specialize in the diagnosis and medical and endoscopic management of general and complex GI diseases.  We aim to not only manage acute and chronic illness but to restore digestive health for all of our patients.   

Our faculty have expertise in a variety of disorders including general GI, small bowel disease, GI motility, inflammatory bowel diseases, pancreaticobiliary disease and advanced therapeutics, general and transplant hepatology, and GI cancers.

In addition, our many innovative and pioneering clinical research programs allow our patients to access highly promising and exciting treatment protocols and our basic and translational research programs are at the forefront of discovery of novel modalities to ultimately be applied to patient care.

Colorectal Cancer Screening

UWGI is #1 in the state of Washington for colorectal cancer screening.

The Population Health Colorectal Cancer Screening Program is a collaborative effort between Fred Hutch and UW Medicine. The goals are to eradicate colorectal cancer by improving screening, reducing racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities, and improving follow-up for those with abnormal non-invasive screening tests.
