Argon laser therapy applies this technology to help heal many gastrointestinal problems including hemorrhages, dysphagia, mucosal lesions, and strictures. If you are in need of argon laser therapy in Denver, CO, we can help.

What are some benefits of argon laser therapy?
Laser therapies, as a rule, provide greater precision in comparison to alternative procedures, which means the approach is more focused on diseased or damaged tissue. Incisions can, therefore, be made smaller and more superficially and create less ensuing trauma to the tissue. People often tend to recover more quickly from laser operations than what is expected from traditional surgery.
Is argon laser therapy safe?
As found with any medical operation, risks are present. However, due to the extreme precision of laser therapy, it is generally thought to be less of a risk compared to alternate surgical procedures. Some of the potential risks can include pain, reaction to anesthesia, bleeding, and infection. Your well-being is extremely important to the GI specialists at Denver Digestive Health Specialists. Consult with our office to discover more about the ways we keep you safe while making sure you receive effective treatment.

Dr. New is amazing. Everyone is so kind, respectful and professional. Dr. New was extremely knowledgeable, sympathetic and listens to everything you have to say. 10 out of 10
Tremendous medical support!
Dr. Fishman is truly one of a kind. I had seen multiple GI doctors for over a decade and none of them were able to figure out the root cause of my ongoing pain. Dr. Fishman is thorough, direct but kind, and incredibly experienced in his field. He was able to find out the root cause of my issues and saved me from what was almost a very dire, dangerous situation. Thanks to him, I was able to get the surgery I needed and feel like a new person. I really can't thank him or recommend him enough to anyone thinking of working with him. Furthermore, Mackenzie on his team is a Godsend. She bends over backwards to ensure fast communication, easy follow ups, and figuring out the chaotic scheduling that inevitably shows up once you get a diagnosis. She is amazing. The entire team is just stellar and I cannot put into words how much of an impact they had on my life and health. Don't hesitate to reach out to Dr. Fishman if you're looking for the very best.
Dr. Fishman is kind and caring and when he talks to you he really pays attention not only to the GI reasons you are there for but your whole health both mental and physical. His patients matter to him and you can feel it.
Dr. Wolfe was interested in helping me solve my digestive issues and gave me 2 things to start with. I was so happy because it didn't involve taking drugs or cutting anything out!
