Best Colonoscopy Specialists in Upper East Side

High-definition colonoscopy in NYC is available at Manhattan Gastroenterology’s Downtown, Midtown, and Upper East Side locations. Led by Dr. Khodadadian, our experienced colonoscopy doctors perform screening and diagnostic colonoscopies to examine the large intestine (colon) for polyps, inflammation, and colorectal cancer. A full colonoscopy evaluates lower GI symptoms, allowing your gastroenterologist or endoscopist to detect and remove precancerous polyps during the procedure to reduce colon cancer risk. The procedure takes 30 to 45 min (recovery times vary) and is performed under sedation administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist.

A colonoscopy (coloscopy) is an endoscopic examination of the large bowel performed by our colonoscopy screening doctors at Manhattan Gastroenterology. Our gastroenterologists guide a colonoscope (a long, thin, flexible tube containing a tiny video camera) from the anus to the end of the colon (cecum) and into the distal part of the small bowel (the terminal ileum). During your coloscopy, images from the camera are shown in real-time on a monitor, allowing the doctor to carefully examine the bowel. Biopsies and treatment can be given during this procedure, which usually takes about 30 minutes. We offer colonoscopy screening in multiple locations in New York City, including Midtown Manhattan and Upper East Side (UES).

What Is a Colonoscopy and Why Is It Performed?
Colonoscopy is the gold standard screening exam used to look for colorectal cancer (commonly referred to as colon cancer) that is recommended in patients without symptoms aged 45 or over (or earlier depending on risk factors such as family history, polyps, and other factors) that should be discussed with your local gastroenterologist. Coloscopy is used to look for polyps or other growths in the colon with the goal of prevention and early diagnosis of colon cancer.
