Robert McMahon, M.D.
Solving problems,
providing peace of mind, and helping people achieve the best of health is what I
like to do. I chose to become a physician because it is a caring occupation requiring scientific
aptitude and good observational skills. I try to teach my patients something about
themselves and how their digestive system works.
My specialty is Gastroenterology — my practice provides answers to questions about
diseases involving the digestive tract. I provide hospital and outpatient consultations
and perform a range of diagnostic and treatment procedures. The procedures include
colonoscopy for colorectal cancer screening or inflammatory bowel disease, upper
endoscopy for ulcers and complicated acid reflux, and ERCP for advanced bile duct
therapy, pancreatic and liver disease management.
I am Board Certified by the ABIM in Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology.
I want you to choose me and St Louis Gastroenterology Consultants for your digestive
tract problems (esophagus, stomach, colon, bowel, liver, pancreas and liver disease).
This is a lasting practice that has continued to attract new patients as well as
serve existing patients for over twenty years. This practice provides a full variety
of services for gastrointestinal problems. The assistance and insight of the five
physicians in the practice are always available to each other. I am delighted that
patients have made a choice to see me, returned as needed with new problems, and
referred family and friends for their care as well.
I was raised in California. I moved to St. Louis to attend Washington University School of Medicine and
received my M.D. degree there. I was in practice in Little Rock and St Louis as a gastroenterologist
before joining St Louis Gastroenterology Consultants in 2001.
I have clinical faculty appointments with both Washington University and St Louis
University Medical Schools. It is my privilege to participate in the training of
future physicians from these institutions.
I am serving as a Council member of the St Louis Metropolitan Medical Society. I
am the speaker for the House of Delegates of the Missouri State Medical
Association. I am a member of the American Medical Association, the American Society
of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, and the American College of Gastroenterology. I have
been featured in a television segment regarding colon cancer screening as well as
news publications regarding innovative techniques in gastroenterology.
