Learn More About Your Health

At Long Island Gastroenterology, we diagnose and manage conditions affecting your digestive system. We feel that if you know more about these conditions—and the tests we use to diagnose them—you will be more comfortable with treatment and better able to prevent problems in the future. Dr. Alpern’s goal is to keep you on the road to lasting good health.
