Gastroenterologist Near Atlanta, GA: Expert GI Doctor Care
Specialist digestive care for north metro Atlanta, with a 360° health approach to getting your issues solved.
Atlanta Patients
Comprehensive GI Care for North Metro Atlanta
Digestive symptoms have a way of taking over. They interrupt work, disrupt sleep and quietly change what you are willing to eat or where you are willing to go. Many Atlanta-area patients who look for a gastroenterologist have already tried managing things on their own, and what they need first is a specialist who will take the full history seriously.
Merus Gastroenterology & Gut Health is an All Female GI Group led by Dr. Sumana Moole, who is board-certified in gastroenterology through the American Board of Internal Medicine. She has practiced medicine for 17 years, with the last 12 focused on the digestive system, and the practice is accepting new patients from across north metro Atlanta.
Care here goes beyond symptom control. Dr. Moole looks at diet, stress, sleep and medical history alongside medication, because a flare that is quieted without addressing its cause usually comes back.
Conditions We Treat
Conditions Treated by Our Atlanta-Area Gastroenterologist
Merus Gastroenterology treats the full range of digestive concerns. Upper GI complaints include acid reflux and GERD, heartburn, nausea and vomiting, peptic ulcers and trouble swallowing. Lower GI concerns include abdominal pain, chronic bloating and gas, constipation, diarrhea, loss of bowel control, hemorrhoids and rectal bleeding.
Chronic and inflammatory conditions are a particular focus, including Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and other inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease and irritable bowel syndrome. For Atlanta-area patients with IBS, treatment starts by identifying the subtype, since constipation-predominant, diarrhea-predominant and mixed patterns respond to different therapies. Liver and pancreatic concerns, including abnormal liver enzymes, hepatitis, cirrhosis, gallstones and pancreatitis, are evaluated and managed here as well.
Prevention matters just as much. Colonoscopy, endoscopy and colorectal cancer screening are core services. Adults at average risk should begin colorectal cancer screening at 45, and earlier with a family history of the disease, a personal history of polyps or inflammatory bowel disease.
Directions
Getting to Merus Gastroenterology from Atlanta
Our office is at 3390 Paddocks Parkway, Suite 100, in Suwanee, near I-85 in Gwinnett County. For patients across north metro Atlanta, that means parking at the building and no downtown congestion to work around. The practice also has a second office in Cumming.

Ongoing Care
Ongoing Gut Health Support After Your First Visit
Most digestive conditions are managed over time rather than cured in a single visit. Follow-up appointments are where the plan gets refined: adjusting medication as symptoms settle, revisiting diet changes that proved hard to keep, and checking that the working diagnosis still fits.
This matters most for IBS and chronic bloating, where the first plan is a starting point rather than a final answer. Atlanta-area patients who stay engaged through a few follow-ups tend to see the best results.
Between visits, a simple log of symptoms, meals and medication changes gives the next appointment something concrete to work from. Patterns that are easy to miss day to day often stand out across a few weeks of notes.
