Lancaster’s Leading GI Specialists Dedicated to Patient Care
The gastroenterologists and staff at MidAtlantic Endoscopy are dedicated to providing quality, affordable care to the greater Lancaster community in our quest to lower colon cancer rates and treat an array of digestive diseases, including Crohn’s Disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
MidAtlantic Endoscopy is skilled in performing a myriad of digestive procedures, including colonoscopy, esophageal dilation, flexible sigmoidoscopy, upper endoscopy and small bowel enteroscopy.
With two convenient locations in Lancaster and Ephrata, we proudly serve the Lancaster, York and Hershey areas. Our new, state-of-the-art facility in Lancaster offers all the technology of a hospital in a comfortable, relaxed environment. The new center replaces two centers located within the Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health Suburban Out-Patient Pavilion with one convenient location, offering the same high quality of patient care in a new updated environment. We also have an Ephrata location at 4140 Oregon Pike.
For Your Visit
Our Lancaster gastroenterologists and staff at MidAtlantic Endoscopy are committed to ensuring your experience with us is relaxed and worry-free, from your first office visit through your post-procedure follow-up. To assist us, we ask that you read and comply with all guidelines.
We’re pleased to announce our new partnership with StopColonCancerNow.com to help boost colon cancer screenings and prevention for residents in the area.
Patient Forms
At MidAtlantic Endoscopy, your time is as valuable to us as it is to you. Upon scheduling your surgery, a member of our staff will provide you with the required forms to fill out.
Insurance and Billing
MidAtlantic Endoscopy accepts most major insurance. As a courtesy to you, we will bill your insurance carrier; however, we cannot tell you what your policy will cover.
Express Scheduling
If you’re over 50 and haven’t had a colonoscopy, take advantage of the Express Scheduling Option at our MidAtlantic Endoscopy center locations. By scheduling directly with our center, you see a board-certified GI specialist and have your procedure on the same day. Call (510) 893-1600 or email us today.

Went for colonoscopy. The nursing staff was excellent. The procedure was efficient and the doctor was superb. Easy parking. Finished early.
