Find a ProviderWhat is infusion therapy?
Infusion therapy happens when medications or fluids are administered directly into a person's vein. It is also called intravenous or IV infusion therapy. Intravenous, infusion, or injectable drug delivery methods are often utilized if oral/pill medications are unavailable, insufficient, or inappropriate.
Several of the newest medications are biologic (made or derived from living cells) and cannot be taken via the mouth, like a pill, as they are no longer effective after exposure to the GI tract. Biologic medications are prescribed to address IBD (inflammatory bowel diseases), such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, among other autoimmune conditions. If you or a loved one are seeking IV therapy in Denver, CO, request a consultation at your community's Denver Digestive Health Specialists location.

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!
Dr. Scott is very kind and genuine. He was thorough in his questions about my symptoms, made sure I understood my probable diagnosis and treatment plan, addressed any and all concerns, and was funny on top of all these other awesome qualities. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a gastroenterologist!
They treat you with upmost respect. And are very nice. Felt comfortable there.
