UCI Health Digestive Health Institute (DHI)

At the UCI Health Digestive Health Institute, they 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.

Their 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.

At the Digestive Health Institute, innovation is our hallmark. They have pioneered endoscopic procedures that are setting the standard of GI care: organ-sparing GI surgery, the accurate diagnosis of liver diseases and more. Our physicians are the first to use artificial intelligence (AI) to dramatically increase the detection and removal of cancerous and precancerous polyps during colonoscopies. With clinical research and technological invention powered by UC Irvine, our patients have access to groundbreaking therapies unavailable elsewhere.
