Johns Hopkins Gi/hep

Johns Hopkins Gi/Hep, located at 1800 Orleans Street in Baltimore, Maryland, is a leading health institution specializing in gastrointestinal, pancreas, and liver conditions. The Division of Gastroenterology & Hepatology provides advanced care, education, and research in the field of gastrointestinal and liver disease.

Due to recent traffic delays caused by the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, patients are advised to plan ahead when traveling to appointments. Masks are strongly recommended but not required in Maryland, following a decrease in respiratory viruses.

Patients can schedule appointments by phone for care in Maryland, DC, or internationally. The institution offers outpatient and hospital-based care at multiple locations in Maryland and the Washington, D.C. area.

Researchers at Johns Hopkins are making significant advancements in cancer treatment, including a method to identify stage II cancer patients who can benefit most from chemotherapy. They have also developed a laboratory-grown organoid model to study early stages of cancer development at the gastroesophageal junction.

Gifts and contributions to the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology support their efforts in providing innovative treatment, research, and medical education. Donations can be made to benefit the division as a whole or a specific physician or area within the division.
