Your gastrointestinal (GI) tract is made up of all the organs that assist in digestion and waste elimination – but gut health is much more than that. “Gut health is not just about digestion,” says family physician Dr. Sara Pettinelli. “It’s linked to so many parts of our body, like our metabolism, our mood, even our immune functions. A healthy diet, hydration, stress management, physical activity, and sleep are all things that we can work on ourselves that make a really big difference.” We provide many services to help you support your gut, including nutritional guidance and diabetes classes.

Women experience conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and celiac disease more often than men – and hormones are just one piece of the puzzle. Says family physician Dr. Sara Pettinelli, “Women go through so many phases during our lives, like adolescence, our reproductive years, and perimenopause. When our hormones shift, that affects our gut motility and our microbiome. Gut health is central to our overall well-being.” We offer a range of local services to support your gut health, including colonoscopies, nutritional guidance, and surgical services.
