Everyone involved with my procedure was so good. Dr. Young and his staff are the best. Great personalities and I felt so comfortable there. Very professional. The greater Wausau area is fortunate to have them available.

We are the largest provider of advanced digestive health services in north and central Wisconsin, offering services in locations including Wausau (main office), Antigo, Stevens Point, Rhinelander, Woodruff and Eagle River.

    My wife and I started this practice back in 1991.We both trained in Milwaukee at the Medical Center. We were trained in advanced endoscopic procedures.

    Over the course of my career I have performed well over 50,000 procedures. My personal care philosophy is to always try to provide the best experience I can for my patients. We strive to be available to them when they need us. And provide the best possible advice we can for them.
