The Port Charlotte office is Florida Digestive Health Specialists’ 26th location, and it opened on a part-time schedule in February. When the clinic opened, it was staffed by Ravi Kondapalli, MD. It was also the second location the group opened during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Carl Colton, MD, will join the clinic from Lancaster, Pa. to lead the office when it opens full time, according to a May 19 email to Becker’s ASC Review.
“My job as a gastroenterologist is to ensure my patients maintain a healthy digestive system to live happy, active lives,” Dr. Colton said. “I’m excited to share my skills with the Port Charlotte community.”
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
