The Center for Gastrointestinal
Medicine of Fairfield and Westchester, P.C. began
over thirty years ago as Greenwich Gastroenterology.
At that time, the field of Gastroenterology, the
subspecialty of Internal Medicine that deals with
diseases of the digestive tract, nutrition, and
liver disease was in its infancy.
Over
the ensuing years, our group has undergone changes
as some of our physicians have retired and new
associates have joined us. We have also
changed our name to reflect the fact that our
patients come not only from Fairfield County,
but from Westchester and even more distant areas
in the metropolitan region. The Center for Gastrointestinal
Medicine of Fairfield & Westchester has been
at the forefront of patient care since its inception.
Our
current doctors are Dr.
Jennifer L. Barro,
Dr.
Nelson A. Bonheim, Dr.
Neda Khaghan, Dr.
Neal A. Schamberg, and Dr.
Felice R. Zwas, All of
our physicians are board certified in Internal
Medicine and Gastroenterology. |

to cleanse your bowels. This type
