Our mission at the Innovative Center for Health and Nutrition in Gastroenterology (ICHANGE) is to provide digestive and metabolic-related health care through a research-driven and multidisciplinary model.
Our Approach
As one of the top gastroenterology programs in the country—in partnership with NewYork-Presbyterian, the #1 hospital in New York, according to U.S. News & World Report—ICHANGE works with patients by treating their gastrointestinal and liver issues while helping them lose weight. It is currently the first and only program of its kind in New York City.

Treatment Tailored to You
Our care plans are highly personalized and based on your medical history, lifestyle and concerns. You will also receive a complimentary body composition analysis, which measures and tracks your weight, muscle mass and other criteria to more accurately assess your health. 
After a thorough evaluation, our digestive health and metabolic experts go over treatment options that best fit your needs. We also offer a wide range of weight loss options, including diet and exercise plans, medications and weight loss procedures.  
Weight management is an essential part of treatment at ICHANGE because excess weight can cause inflammation, which can injure organs including the intestines, liver and pancreas. 
Your Team of Experts
Each patient works with a nurse navigator, who helps them schedule appointments with each of their specialists. &²Ô²ú²õ±è;ICHANGE team members include gastroenterologists, endocrinologists,  registered dietitians, cardiologists, bariatric endoscopists and bariatric surgeons. As part of the program, we offer highly coordinated care amongst multiple providers.
