👏 We are so excited to share that Dr. Schlussel was featured on News4Jax with Jennifer Waugh to raise awareness about three important health conditions: diverticulitis, hemorrhoids, and a**l cancer.
These conditions are more common than many realize and can share overlapping symptoms making education and early recognition critical.
We're proud to be a part of the conversation and help inform our community!

A healthy liver is smooth and uniform. A cirrhotic liver? Bumpy, scarred, and rough sort of like cobblestone.
Cirrhosis happens when long-term damage (from alcohol, fatty liver, or hepatitis) leads to scarring. Symptoms can include:
⚠️ Fatigue & weakness
⚠️ Jaundice (yellowing skin)
⚠️ Fluid buildup in the belly
The liver is incredibly resilient, but once cirrhosis sets in, it can be irreversible. Know the signs, take action early, and protect your health!

Are your habits making acid reflux worse?
🔥 That burning sensation in your chest? It might not just be “something you ate.” Acid reflux (GERD) is common, but your daily habits could be making it worse.
🥱 Laying down after eating? Big mistake! Gravity helps keep acid down, so try waiting 2-3 hours before lying down.
If GERD is making life miserable, don’t ignore it! We have real solutions to help.
