Dr. Joseph Roberts is a gastroenterology (digestive system) specialist in Staten Island, NY. He is a graduate of St. George's University School of Medicine.

" Dr. Roberts does not stop until he finds out what’s wrong with you, it doesn’t matter if you want to five doctors before him and they can find something wrong with you, if you are complaining of an element, he thinks outside of the box and he does not rest until he has answers. I affectionately referred to him as a dog with a bone because he does not let go of a problem just because he doesn’t see it the first or second time, he continues test after test and will also refer you to another doctor Doctor if he thinks that doctor could get to the bottom of your situation. I highly recommend him and he has the best bedside manner and he also has a very friendly front and clerical staff. He does not overbook and therefore you are seen within 10 minutes of your appointment time and you spend as much time as you need and all that wrapped up in one makes for one terrific doctor ????? "

What is Gastroenterology?

A gastroenterologist is a doctor that specializes in the normal function and diseases of the digestive tract, which includes the stomach, intestines, spleen, pancreas, and liver. As a specialty, gastroenterology is the study of how food moves through the body, how nutrients are absorbed by the body, and how waste is removed by the body. A few of the conditions that a gastroenterologist might treat are:

ulcerative colitis (a condition where inflammation and sores affect the lower intestine)
gallbladder disease (where bile stored in the gallbladder thickens and causes inflammation or gallstones)
gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD (stomach acid flows back into the throat and causes a burning sensation and tissue damage)

One unique trait that really sets gastroenterologists apart is their training and skill with endoscopy, a procedure where tiny flexible tubes are inserted into the body. These tubes are equipped with lights and cameras to provide the practitioner with a close, inside look at what is going on inside the patient's body. Tools can even be inserted through the tubes to perform certain procedures, such as removing polyps or cancers, stretching open passageways that have narrowed, or applying lasers to stop bleeding.

Gastroenterologists do not perform surgery, but they do perform endoscopic procedures, as well as biopsies to determine if cancer is affecting the digestive tract. Although other physicians can use endoscopes, gastroenterologists devote a significant portion of their medical training and practice to endoscopy. They learn how and when to use endoscopy, the safest and most efficient methods to use, and how to interpret what they see through the endoscope.
