Gastro Florida Information

Recognizing the need to unify many small practices in Tampa Bay, several physician leaders began to hold meetings in 2008 to survey the level of interest in forming a single group. Gastro Florida was formed in September 2010 from 8 local independent gastroenterology groups. Gastro Florida continues to improve and expand each year. On September 1st, 2015 Gastro Florida proudly celebrated its fifth anniversary. Today we are the largest GI group in Tampa Bay with 40 providers across 20 locations in Pasco, Hillsborough and Pinellas counties. As a physician-owned partnership, Gastro Florida serves its member practices and works collaboratively with local health systems to meet the digestive care needs of our community, one patient at a time. The group offers groundbreaking techniques, diagnostic strategies, colon cancer prevention, non-surgical cancer intervention, and minimally invasive endoscopic therapies in the same practices patients have trusted for over 30 years. Comprehensive services are provided for colorectal screening, swallowing disorders, hepatitis treatment, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, reflux disease, Barrett's Esophagus and other diseases and disorders of the esophagus, stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and colon.
