About the providers
-
When you sign up for Oshi Health, you’ll get access to a dedicated team of GI specialists, which may include:
- Gastroenterologists
- GI providers (nurse practitioners and physician assistants)
- Registered dietitians
- Gut-brain specialists
Our priority is to address the root cause of your symptoms and improve your quality of life by connecting you to the right providers based on your unique needs.
-
Gastroenterologists are licensed, board-certified doctors with advanced training in the management of GI conditions and symptoms, such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), pancreatitis, and more.
After medical school, gastroenterologists complete a three-year residency in internal medicine, followed by an additional three-year fellowship with specialized training in gastroenterology. Oshi Health gastroenterologists have all completed their fellowship training at a program certified by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).
-
Our GI providers include nurse practitioners and physician assistants—licensed professionals with specialized education, training, and experience in GI conditions and symptoms. They deliver high-quality, personalized care under the guidance of a gastroenterologist.
-
Registered dietitians are licensed experts in nutritional care who hold nationally recognized certifications from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and have completed accredited, supervised practice programs. Dietitians work in a variety of settings and practice areas.
Our registered dietitians have specialized education and training in gastroenterology. They provide our patients with tailored dietary and nutrition guidance to optimize digestive health and overall well-being, while keeping symptoms at bay.
-
Our gut-brain specialists are licensed professionals with an advanced degree in psychology or other behavioral health specialties. They have deep knowledge of the science behind the brain-gut connection and are trained in evidence-based therapies—such as gut-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, gut-directed hypnotherapy, mindfulness-based skills, and more—that reduce GI symptoms and enhance well-being.
-
Our care coordinators help you manage the logistics of care while also supporting our clinical providers to ensure coordination. We know that sharing medical history, scheduling appointments, filling out insurance forms, navigating health plan coverage and benefits, and finding local test sites (if needed) can be challenging—so our care coordinators help facilitate these tasks. Care coordinators at Oshi Health also have advanced training to understand the complexities of GI traditional care, including endoscopies, infusions, and more.
