The gastroenterologists, Catherine Kerschen, MD, Lisa Oliveri-LePain, MD, and Maria Reed, have been practicing together for more than 20 years. 

They had a common goal of wanting a “patient-centric community practice,” Dr. Oliveri-LePain told WKUR

“We’re interested in outreach by helping part of the community that doesn’t have the best access to healthcare,” she said. “Today, nobody should be dying from something like colon cancer. We really want to help the community and build a strong program.”

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
