ABOUT US

At the UCI Health Digestive Health Institute, we are driven to provide unparalleled care for diseases and disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, which are among the most prevalent conditions contributing to illness and death among Americans today.

​

Our institute's more than 40 world-class physicians and 100 additional healthcare professionals are leaders in the early detection of disease and the delivery of advanced and minimally invasive treatments that reduce recovery time. Our focus is on healing the whole person, to develop individual care plans for each patient that meets their unique needs.

​

Our flagship Chao Family Comprehensive Digestive Disease Center (CDDC) is one of the few medical institutions in the nation — and the only one in Orange County — to provide state-of-the-art care for the full range of digestive diseases, including disorders of the esophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, colon and rectum.
