From routine colon cancer screenings and polyp removal to managing acid reflux, abdominal pain, and digestive conditions like Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, I work with patients across a wide range of concerns. I also perform endoscopic procedures, treat liver conditions such as Hepatitis B and C, and provide care for many other gastrointestinal issues. I completed all of my post-graduate training in Houston’s Texas Medical Center, where I developed not only my medical expertise but also a strong connection to this city. Houston has become home to me – I love its people, its culture, and its energy. It is my privilege to serve our community, and I remain committed to providing high-quality care with both expertise and compassion." - Dr. Zafar
