With the recent breakthrough announcement that Vedolizumab has been approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for patients suffering from Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, Utah Gastro physicians are empowered to offer the new subcutaneous medication to patients who have been properly diagnosed with CD or UC – the two most common forms of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).

The new facility will offer a full team of physicians and specialists, offering infusion services and expanding the endoscopy center to the second floor. This strategic expansion aligns with the rapid growth of the south part of Salt Lake County, positioning Utah Gastroenterology as a key player in meeting the evolving healthcare needs of the region. As wait times continue to increase at competing providers, Utah Gastro is fully staffed and accepting new patients for same- or next-day bookings."We are delighted to welcome patients to our new facility and look forward to continuing to provide personalized, compassionate care," says Dr. Brett Doxey, one of the skilled physicians relocating to the new office. “No one should ever have to suffer for months or years waiting for an appointment; the very notion is disturbing and downright inhumane.”Along with Drs. Krishnamurthy and Doxey, the relocation will include renowned physicians such as Dr. R. Stuart Bridge and Dr. Peter Fenton.
