Esophagus

Esophagus pain can be caused by a number of problems. You may be having an allergic reaction, food may be stuck in the esophagus, or even cancer. It's important to have an evaluation from a medical professional if you are experiencing any discomfort. We look to evaluate, diagnose, and provide a treatment plan for whatever discomfort you may have.
