History

Founded in 1999, GI Care for Kids was established when Children’s Gastroenterology Group and The Center for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition merged to become the premier pediatric gastrointestinal practice in Georgia providing compassionate and personalized care.

Today, our physician-owned practice includes a team of board-certified doctors and registered nurses serving patients across 11 Atlanta-area locations. Our 17 top doctors participate in active research studies and serve as national leaders in pediatric GI professional organizations. We strive everyday to build lasting relationships with patients and their families. After all, we’re parents, too, and we know how important it is to know that your child is receiving the best care.

Our vision for the future is to remain a convenient, comprehensive center for diagnosis, treatment, and the ancillary services that pediatric patients need to thrive. We are committed to continuing to offer state-of-the-art services and treatments, including research studies in Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and capsule endoscopy, while providing access to treatments that may not be widely available.
