About

Dr. Shapsis, president of the clinic, is known nationally as a published author of numerous research articles on various topics related to gastroenterology and gastrointestinal motility disorders. He is certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology. He is one of the first gastroenterologists in the US to have performed early intragastric balloon insertions (SPATZ-2) well before they were FDA-approved in the USA, making him the first gastroenterologist in New York to be proficient in this skill. He was trained by the inventor Dr. Jeffrey Brooks himself and learned it from the source. He has also successfully completed the training course for the ORBERA™ Intragastric Balloon System. Dr.Shapsis is also active in the American Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy and the American College of Gastroenterology. As a doctor, he is driven by a rare commitment to patient care and the treatment of colon cancer.
