"Esophageal disorders are common and often correctable."
Dr. Charles Filipi

The Esophageal Center at Creighton University Medical Center (CUMC) is a proven leader in the diagnosis and treatment of gastroesophageal disorders. State-of-the-art technology is combined with the latest techniques developed and refined by Creighton University physicians to provide the most advanced medical care available for esophageal disorders. The success of the center can be attributed to the dedication of Program Director Charles J. Filipi, M.D., a world-renown esophageal surgeon and researcher, and the Esophageal Center physicians and staff, whose combined experience and commitment to excellence has allowed us to perform more procedures than any other center in the region.
