Capital Digestive Care Dr. Anna Strongin and Dr. Faisal Bhinder Each year, more than 70,000 patients put their trust in the doctors and staff at Capital Digestive Care, whose recently opened location on Frederick’s Thomas Johnson Drive brings the practice’s number of offices to 16. Capital Digestive Care is the largest independent gastrointestinal (GI) practice in the Washington, D.C./Baltimore region, and its physicians are also among the most highly rated providers in the area. Founded in 2009, Capital Digestive Care prides itself in providing a wide range of digestive health services – from heartburn treatment to colon cancer screening. Its integrated health care model connects doctors to a specialized pathology laboratory as well as the largest clinical program of its kind in the region. Capital Digestive Care’s doctors are leaders in the region when it comes to colorectal cancer screening. The practice’s many office locations, along with 8 endoscopy centers, make it easier for patients to get scheduled for the necessary scoping procedures recommend by their doctors. The Urbana Endoscopy Center recently was recognized for its quality and safety by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy.
Among the practice’s providers in the Frederick and Ijamsville offices are Dr. Anna Strongin, a highly trained internist and gastroenterologist who earned her medical degree from the University of Maryland School of Medicine, and is a third-generation physician, following in the footsteps of her mother and grandmother; and Dr. Faisal Bhinder, who grew up in Africa, the Middle East, England and Pakistan, where he earned his medical degree from the King Edward Medical College, and has a specialized skill set that allows him to provide an expanded scope of services to patients with complex digestive diseases. Capital Digestive Care uses advanced diagnostic and therapeutic techniques so patients have access to more services, such as infusion therapy, capsule endoscopy, advanced hemorrhoid treatments, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), pathogen panel stool testing, and breath tests for lactose intolerance, h. pylori, and bacterial overgrowth. The result is better care, closer to home, and a patient experience that is truly first in digestive health.
