Welcome to Bucks County Gastroenterology

Bucks County Gastroenterology Associates, formed in 1990, consists of university trained physicians and dedicated staff who are committed to providing the highest quality gastroenterology care in Bucks County using state of the art equipment in beautiful new facilities. This website contains useful information for patients about our practice, procedures, and GI diseases. We hope you find the information provided here helpful!

Bravo Wireless pH monitoring is now available!
Ambulatory pH monitoring provides information about the duration, pattern and symptom correlation of distal esophageal acid exposure from gastroesophageal reflux (GERD). This information is very useful in diagnosing GERD in patients with atypical symptoms (chronic cough, laryngitis, chest pain among others) and assessing response to medications in patients with known GERD.

Dr. Bohning co-authored  a book chapter with renowned esophagologist Dr. Joel Richter entitled "GERD and cough:  An evidence-based approach to diagnosis and treatment" in the recenlty published textbook Extraesophageal Reflux  edited by Michael Vaezi, M.D, PhD.

Breath testing now available! Breath testing is an easy, accurate, non-invasive method for diagnosing common GI conditions such as lactose intolerance and bacterial overgrowth. Symptoms of these diseases are common and include diarrhea, bloating and abdominal pain. Breath testing provides an additional diagnostic tool available to our physicians and is performed in our Yardley office. Please call the Yardley office at (215) 321-7221 for more information or to schedule an appointment.
