Who Is Center for Digestive Health?

Center for Digestive Health is also known as Troy Gastroenterology. We are committed to providing high-quality treatment for patients with digestive disorders. Our focus on digestive health means that our team’s expertise in this field is unlike most others. Our staff is devoted to providing a level of care to our patients that exceeds their expectations. We treat those who visit our clinics with empathy, understanding and professionalism.

At Center for Digestive Health, our specialists have extensive expertise in all aspects of the digestive system. We perform diagnostic procedures, disease studies, motility studies and symptom management.

In addition, both our Surgical Centers of Michigan and Macomb Endoscopy Center have achieved accreditation by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC). Accreditation distinguishes these Centers from many other outpatient facilities by providing the highest quality of care to its patients as determined by an independent, external process of evaluation.

Yukari W.
easy to follow instructions for prep. Very comfortable office and preoperative care. Excellent bedside manner of Dr. Nandi. Highly recommend.
Joanne G.
Dr. Abidar continues to listen and respond to all of my questions and concerns in a concise and direct manner. He is direct and seems to doctor in a way that does not immediately solve every problem with a new prescription. I appreciate that very much.
kim D.
Dr Bakken and the entire staff are fantastic. The facility is really nice and very clean. Highly recommend!
Eclipse4unow W.
Excellent, everyone was helpful and nice.
Paul Y.
The entire colonoscopy process was good. Prep was described beforehand, complete supplies were purchased as one, prep did NOT include anything but some laxative pills, laxative powder dissolved in the included Gatorade, disposable wipes, bullion drinks, gelatin drink. Arrival time was 9am, everyone was polite, attentive, professional, my ride picked me up at the door by 11am. Documentation results were given before I left the building.
Dan S.
My wife received the utmost in care. Staff was incredible from the reception desk, to the nurses doing the prepping and post care. Thank You to a very caring doctor - Dr. Wille. He met her with a smile which put her at ease quickly, explained the process, performed the procedure, met with me immediately after and then with both of us when she awoke.. Can't say enough about this entire process. Every staff member was smiling and joyful while discharging their duties. Thank You ALL for the high level of service and caring you provided..
Scott S.
Everyone is kind and helpful with all my questions.

The staff was so kind and attentive.

John W.
Staff is excellent, Dr Bakken leaves no stone unturned

dawn ezzo R.
Had a telemedicine appointment with my doctor, Dr.Donat. I liked having the session online vs. office visit when I’m in remission but would opt for face to face if I have a flare and/or other symptoms. Thanks for the option, CDH!

Great staff and thorough doctor. They were able to find an appointment on short notice as well.
Dorie
