Sunset Park
Welcome!
Take out that pink stuff and toast NYU Langone Hospital–Brooklyn. The healing center has welcomed Dr. Adam Goodman as the new director of its expanded endoscopy services.
Dr. Goodman specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the digestive system, particularly diseases of the esophagus, stomach, pancreas, colon, and rectum, as well as obstructions of the bile duct and gastrointestinal tract. Under his leadership, the hospital’s gastrointestinal service will enhance utilization of advanced endoscopic procedures including endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, endoscopic ultrasound, and advanced therapeutic endoscopy.
“The latest generation of endoscopic technology improves our ability to detect and treat precancerous and cancerous growths,” said colleague Dr. Mark Pochapin.
“EUS is the standard of care for diagnosing and treating many gastrointestinal malignancies, and is particularly useful in the evaluation and staging of cancer prior to surgery,” explained Dr.Goodman.
Now that is good news — Standing O wishes Dr. Goodman good luck.
