The experienced, board-certified gastroenterologists offer comprehensive treatment for a wide range of gastrointestinal disorders, including abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, acid reflux, and more. They also have specialized training in liver disease, inflammatory bowel disease, capsule endoscopy, Celiac disease, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Our practice conducts procedures at The Digestive Health Center, the only ambulatory surgical center in the area accredited by The American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE). Since 2006, we have consistently met or exceeded quality measures set forth by the American College of Gastroenterology and ASGE.
We are dedicated to using the latest technology to provide our patients with easy access to care and positive experiences with our physicians. Our Open Access Program allows healthy adults without troublesome gastrointestinal symptoms to book a colonoscopy without an office visit, making colon cancer screening more accessible and saving lives.
In 2012, The Digestive Health Center became the first surgery center in the region to join the GI Quality Improvement Consortium (GIQUIC), where we perform many of our procedures. This quality benchmarking registry allows us to participate in quality improvement and value-based care programs. Our physicians measure far above the national benchmark, with an adenoma detection rate of 47% (compared to the standard 25%) and a cecal intubation rate of 98% (compared to the national benchmark of 90%).
We accept most insurances, although we do not accept Medicaid. We welcome new and established patients to call or schedule an appointment online. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our office.

Reviews of Alexander N Pontikos, MD
"I have been a patient for many years starting with Dr. Shill, Dr. Gaget(spelling?) and finally with Dr. Pontikos. I am very happy I chose him as he is very knowledgeable about the history of my long history of Ulcerative Colitis."
"Dr. Pontikos was very personable. He listened to all my questions and concerns. I've never had a gastroenterologist doctor be so informed on so many topics. He also explained things to me so that I could understand. 100% recommend !!"
"Office staff very nice and professional.I was pleased meeting Dr. Pontiko and our discussion One negative. I’m supposed to have additional tests, but it’s been almost a week and haven’t received a call."
"I must admit that I was apprehensive about seeing a new gastroenterologist. However, my visit with Dr. Pontikos went extremely well! He is very professional and maintains an excellent bedside manner. I didn't feel rushed and he answered all of my questions. The office staff is amazing! They actually were caring and you could tell they enjoyed their work! Thank you Dr. Pontikos and Team!"
"I have nothing negative to say about Dr Pontiko. However, my experience w/ this office goes back years and I have always been satisfied w/ the professional services received. There was a period of time before a year or two ago when the communication was very frustrating. No one had answers on phone conversations. At times when I was promised someone would call me back w/ answers, it did not happen. I have noticed that my recent contacts have been much improved both by phone and in person and wanted your office to know it is appreciated. I never complained nor ever would. However, I thought this would be a good opportunity to let you know the smiles and patience make the whole ordeal far more pleasant. Perhaps the staff is the same but there is a very positive difference “behind the glass”. Keep it up!"
