Overall

Shockingly Poor Customer Service

Ive been a patient of Dr. Hirshs for approximately five years. Recently I had a routine procedure with him. Unfortunately he misdiagnosed me and the insurance company was only willing to pay the $ 4000 bill if Dr. Hirsh corrected the error and notified the hospital, anesthesiologist and pathologist. He agreed to do so and his billing dept told me that they would take care of it. Unfortunately it literally took three dozen phone calls, countless broken promises, five unreturned phone calls to ...

Colon Cancer
Colonoscopy is a careful viewing of the lining of the colon on a high def video monitor performed by insertion of a thin flexible tube with a tiny video camera on its tip while the patient is asleep or deeply sedated. By passing instruments through the scope, benign growths called polyps, which may sometimes turn into colon cancer, can be removed, and areas of the colon that we want more information about, can be further examined under a microscope by painlessly removing tiny bits of tissue for biopsies.
Endoscopy
UPPER ENDOSCOPY (EGD): The insertion through the mouth of a thin flexible tube with a tiny video camara and light on its tip (similar to a colonoscope, but thinner and shorter) to examine the lining of the esophagus, stomach and duodenum, performed while deeply sedated or asleep. It can be helpful for the evaluation of symptoms of the esophagus, stomach and duodenum, and the diagnosis of such disorders as peptic ulcers, Barrett’s esophagus or stomach cancer. Biopsies may be obtained during the procedure to aid in the arrival of an exact diagnosis. Watch the video “Upper Endoscopy – What Patients Can Expect” for a more comprehensive understanding of upper endoscopy.

Ulcer
Drawing on his earlier career in full-time academic gastroenterology (first at the National Institutes of Health, then as Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of California, Irvine, and later at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine ), Dr. Cherner brings to his practice those scientific advances he judges likely to benefit his patients. Although he developed a love for a broad array of gastroenterological disorders during his training (Fellowship) at Emory, it was in the field of regulation of secretion of stomach acid and pepsin, and its application to peptic ulcer disease, acid reflux, and Barrett’s esophagus, that Dr. Cherner established his early reputation (see www.drjaycherner.com/dr-cherner.php ) He was privileged to be part of the team that was the first to investigate the use of Prilosec (omeprazole), Pepcid (famotidine) and Sandostatin (ocreotide) among patients in this country, and honored by the publication of those three separate studies in Gastroenterology and the New England Journal of Medicine. The recognition bestowed upon his work identifying the merits and shortcomings of “Portal Venous Sampling for Gastrin” by its inclusion in the Yearbook of Gastroenterology of 1985 was a highpoint that presaged his current emphasis on performing only those tests that are truly beneficial to a patient’s outcome. But although he derived much satisfaction from his publication of numerous important studies (see www.jaycherner.com/publications.php ) his federally-funded research, his teaching of young doctors, and his role as Consultant and Reviewer for prestigious medical journals, something was missing. His academic successes had caused him to drift away from the very reason he chose to become a doctor in the first place – to help people combat and prevent illness.
