Avera Digestive Disease Institute

Avera Digestive Disease works in partnership with physicians from Avera Medical Group Gastroenterology, as well as other medical disciplines including family practice, internal medicine, oncology, surgery and hepatology, in order to accurately diagnose and treat disease of the gastrointestinal tract in adults, and provide recommended health screenings including colonoscopy.

As part of a tertiary care center, Digestive Disease has the expertise and technology to provide advanced diagnostic and surgical care, and complex interventional endoscopy procedures. Referrals are welcome, as we work in partnership with primary care physicians in the care of GI conditions.

Avera McKennan has been named by HealthGrades as being the Best in South Dakota and in the Top 10% in the nation for GI Medical Treatment, and has earned 5-Star ratings in specific treatments including care of GI bleed, bowel obstruction and pancreatitis.
