A. J. (Alfonso J.) Gastrointestinal Neurology

A. J. (Alfonso J.) Gastrointestinal Neurology is a specialized medical field that studies how the nervous system interacts with the digestive system. It focuses on understanding how nerve signals control functions like swallowing, stomach movement, and bowel habits. Disorders in this area may cause issues such as difficulty swallowing, chronic indigestion, or abnormal bowel movements. Gastrointestinal neurologists diagnose and treat these conditions by examining nerve and muscle functions within the digestive tract, aiming to restore normal communication between the brain, nerves, and gut to improve patients’ digestive health and quality of life.
