TOP DOCTORS

WE ARE DEEPLY GRATEFUL to the medical and nursing professionals who are dedicated to supporting our community through this challenging time. The individuals who are being honored in this year's prestigious SRQ TOP DOCTORS | PEER REVIEW program have received the overwhelming support of colleagues in the medical professional communities of Greater Sarasota including Palmetto, Anna Maria Island, Holmes Beach, Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, Sarasota, Venice and North Port, Florida. The Colorado-based team at DataJoe Research facilitates all aspects of the online peer-voting process and conducting government references. We appreciate the doctors who participated in the program this past summer by sharing their thoughtful nominations—it is their insight that makes it possible for us to provide the readers of SRQ Magazine with this noteworthy guide to the highly-regarded doctors in the region.

METHODOLOGY DataJoe Research is a software and research company specializing in data collection and verification, and conducts various nominations across the United States on behalf of publishers. To create the "top doctors" list, DataJoe Research facilitated an online peer-voting process, also referencing government sources. DataJoe then tallied the votes per category for each doctor to isolate the top nominees in each category. After collecting nominations and additional information, DataJoe checked and confirmed that each published winner had a current, active license status with the state regulatory board. If we were not able to find evidence of a doctor's current, active registration with the state regulatory board, that doctor was excluded from the list. In addition, any doctor who has been disciplined, up to the time-frame of our review process for an infraction by the state regulatory board, was excluded from the list. Finally, DataJoe presented the tallied result to the magazine for its final review and adjustments.

IVAN ESTUARDO RASCON-AGUILAR, MD HONOREE

Gastroenterology SPECIALTIES - Inflammatory bowel disease - Liver and pancreatic diseases - Endoscopy, colonoscopy, balloon enteroscopy and ERCP - Esophageal disorders

Dr. Rascon-Aguilar is a dedicated and experienced physician committed to providing comprehensive and compassionate healthcare. With 23 years of clinic expertise, he specializes in gastroenterology and hepatology.

Dr. Rascon’s passion for medicine drives his continuous learning and reinforces his commitment to exceptional patient care. He believes in using medications as a last resort and utilizing diet and lifestyle interventions to improve gut health first.

HOW CAN DIET AND LIFESTYLE CHOICES AFFECT GASTROINTESTINAL HEALTH? Diet and lifestyle go hand-

in-hand in having a profound impact on your gut health.

A balanced diet not only promotes regular bowel movements but also prevents constipation. Conversely, consuming excessive amounts of processed foods, high-fat content and spicy foods can lead you down a road to digestive discomfort, acid reflux and gastritis. Hydration also plays a key role, as does maintaining a healthy body weight through regular exercise to reduce the risk of conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome and gallstones. With over two decades of experience in gastroenterology, my goal with every patient is to listen, learn and thoroughly investigate to discover the heart of the problem – and give them choices for treatment, from lifestyle modifications to medications and procedures.

MICHAEL CAIRE, MD WHY IS COLORECTAL SCREENING SO IMPORTANT?

HONOREE

Gastroenterology

Colorectal screening holds significant importance due to several key factors. Firstly, it plays a crucial role in detecting colorectal cancer at its earliest and most treatable stages, thereby improving survival rates. Moreover, screening can identify and remove precancerous growths or polyps, reducing the risk of cancer development. Given that colorectal cancer often presents no early symptoms, regular screening is essential for early detection. Individuals with a family history of the disease are at increased risk, further emphasizing the importance of routine screening.

Lastly, early detection through screening can lead to less invasive and more effective treatment options, ultimately enhancing a patient’s quality of life.

SPECIALTIES - Colorectal Cancer Screening - Esophageal Disorders

Dr. Michael Caire, a board-certified gastroenterologist in Bradenton, specializes in colorectal cancer screening and esophageal disorders. He earned his medical degree at the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine, where he was inducted into the Gold Humanism Honor Society. Following this, his internal medicine residency at Virginia Commonwealth University recognized him as the Most Outstanding Senior Resident. He returned to USF Morsani College of Medicine for his gastroenterology fellowship, becoming Chief Fellow.

If you're experiencing persistent digestive issues such as chronic abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea or constipation, it's advisable to seek a consultation with a gastroenterologist.

As a gastroenterologist, I specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of digestive disorders, ensuring that you receive accurate evaluations, effective treatments and necessary lifestyle recommendations to manage your gastrointestinal health effectively.

HOW DOES YOUR PRACTICE HELP TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF YOUR PATIENTS? Diagnosing gastrointestinal

issues can be very nuanced and layered; it requires paying key attention to patients’ symptoms while keeping in mind already diagnosed medical comorbidities.

Patients need to know they’re heard and are working with someone that is invested in their care. An essential part of this doctor-patient relationship is continual patient education and engagement. As physicians, we need to constantly understand symptoms and early screening.

With this work, we can save lives.

WHAT SETS YOUR PRACTICE APART? I have always approached patient care with the idea of recognizing the complex biological, psychological and situational impact of each person’s presentation. Psychiatric symptoms are the most complicated of any medical specialty, because they potentially impact who you are and how you feel about yourself. My goal with patients is to help them understand their psychiatric symptoms and conflicts, and to work collaboratively with them to improve overall health and well-being. In over a decade of private clinical practice, I have worked with patients in both acute crisis situations as well as with more chronic, debilitating symptoms or difficulties. For some patients, seeking out care can be upsetting or difficult. My goal is to establish a safe and nurturing environment so we can do the work together, establish clear goals for a treatment plan and take proper care of the patient’s needs.
