Our Gastrointestinal (GI) Pathology Service is dedicated to delivering exceptional diagnostic services for a wide range of gastrointestinal disorders at both Memorial Hermann Hospital-Texas Medical Center (MHH-TMC), and Lyndon B. Johnson Hospital (LBJ). Led by Drs. Suhair Al-Salihi and Erin Rubin, our team of expert pathologists is committed to providing precise, timely, and clear diagnostic reports.

At our state-of-the-art facilities, we utilize cutting-edge technology and methodologies to ensure high-quality patient care. Our comprehensive GI diagnostic services encompass biopsies and resections from the esophagus, stomach, small and large bowel, native and transplant liver, pancreas, and biliary tract. By employing advanced techniques including molecular diagnostics and digital pathology, we offer accurate and detailed diagnoses which are critical for effective treatment planning.

Our team understands the urgency in diagnosing GI conditions and is dedicated to providing prompt and reliable results. We prioritize rapid turnaround times and ensure seamless communication with referring physicians to provide optimal patient care, facilitating a collaborative approach to patient management. We offer a comprehensive referral service for complex cases, providing second opinions and detailed consultations, ensuring that patients receive the most accurate and informed diagnoses possible, while also supporting the broader medical community.
