I had came to Dr. Thyssen for a second opinion cause my other stomach Doctor kept telling me all my test came back normal and Dr. Thyssen stayed up most of the night before my appointment going through my medical records and he told me what I had thought that I had and even gave me Medication for my IBS-C and my other Doctor was not treating me for that I am so happy I found Dr. Thyssen cause I was so depressed and in a lot of pain all the time now because of him I'm enjoying life all the pain and bloating is gone. I'm truly thankful for Dr. Thyssen. Marlena Hinkle
Dr. Singh was professional, attentive, and listened well.
Very friendly staff. Dr Thyssen is the greatest.
I have been a patient there for a while now. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Dr. Banerjee listens to your concerns and does not rush you. I would recommend him to anyone with stomach issues .

An optimal way to detect and prevent cancer is to undergo a colonoscopy before cancer grows to a critical stage. Over 95 percent of precancerous polyps are identified during a colonoscopy and are removed during the procedure. Tissue samples from the polyps are sent to pathology to determine any signs of cancer. A colonoscopy is a preventative measure that safeguards your GI health by eliminating any polyps before they progress to a severe stage. A colonoscopy is a gold standard for both the prevention and detection of colorectal cancer.
Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are among the most common types of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD). Many Americans are affected, with around 1.6 million currently impacted by these diseases. IBD is a chronic condition that’s typically diagnosed in patients before the age of 35. As a chronic condition, it can be treated but not completely cured. There are approximately 70,000 new cases in children and adults detected each year.
