Moving in on Gastroparesis Treatment Strategies

Host: Peter Buch, MD, FACG, AGAF, FACP Guest: Amir E. Masoud, MD Gastroparesis affects approximately five million people in the United States alone, and there are more than 50 recognized causes. In recent years, however, it's been shown that simply accelerating gastric emptying may not improve symptoms, and the overlap of functional dyspepsia and gastroparesis has further clouded our understanding of this condition. So to help clear up some of that confusion, Dr. Peter Buch speaks with Dr. Amir Masoud about treatment strategies for gastroparesis.
