Sialendoscopy: Minimally Invasive Treatment for Salivary Gland Stones

NO... our office does not provide this treatment option for sialadenitis caused by salivary gland stones. However, given we have received a number of inquiries on this treatment option, we did want to let people know that at least in the mid-Atlantic region, there is only three places that offer this treatment that we are aware of. Specifically, the doctors' names are:

Dr. Arjun Joshi (George Washington University Hospital (Washington DC)
2021 K St NW, Ste 206
Washington, DC 20006
Office Number: 202-741-3250

Dr. M. Boyd Gillespie (Charleston, SC)
Office Number: 843-792-8299
Email: gillesmb@musc.edu

Drs. Barry Schaitkin and Ricardo Carrau (Pittsburgh, PA).
Office Number: 412-621-0123

A bit further away is Dr. Michael H. Fritsch at Indiana University.
