Specialization
- Colon Cancer Screening- As a leading gastroenterologist in Bedford and the surrounding Fort Worth, TX areas, Dr. Yepuri is an expert in colon cancer screening with colonoscopy. Early detection is the key to beating this cancer. Average-risk individuals should be screened for colon cancer beginning at 45 years of age.
- Endoscopy Specialist- An endoscopy is performed to uncover many upper-gastroenterology issues. An upper endoscopy or EGD (esophagogastroduodenoscopy) is a procedure where a flexible fiber optic camera with a light on the end (an endoscope) is advanced through mouth into the esophagus (swallowing tube) to the stomach and then the first part of the small intestine (duodenum).
- Hemorrhoids- Dr. Yepuri is an expert in hemorrhoid banding in Bedford and the surrounding Fort Worth, TX areas. Using the CRH O’Regan hemorrhoid banding system, Dr. Yepuri can treat your internal hemorrhoids in a few minutes using this painless non-surgical technique.

Reviews
Thanks to Dr. Yepuri for recommending and performing a series of HALO Esophagus treatments on me. Because of the treatments, I am now Barrett's free. My sincerest thanks to Dr. Yepuri and his Team for the excellent medical care they provide. May GOD BLESS you!
The efficient procedure, pleasant nurses and an overall great group.
Getting a colonoscope is not one of my favorite things about being older. The prep solutions are among the worst things that I will ever have to drink. Sadly, even I have to admit they are a necessary procedure. If you are having one, may I suggest you consider Dr. Jay Yepuri for your procedure. His staff is very friendly and will be very helpful in getting the paperwork done. The equally friendly nurses will answer any questions and/or concerns you might have. Then you will meet Dr. Yepuri and you will find him to be a calming influence with his knowledgeable and professional manner. When it is over and you are awake, you will be given the results in a easy to understand manner. If you must have a colonoscope, I would highly recommend that you consider Dr Yepuri and his team for your procedure. I will get getting another one soon and, once again, this is where I will be going.
Wow DR Yapuri so happy I found this doctor. He has the best bed side manner. He is very kind, very thorough and professional. His ability to convey in-depth procedures to your individual case plan will make you feel at ease and you will know you've found the right doctor for you. His assistant projects His same qualities every call I've made is always returned, any nervous inquiry I've had has always been addressed. Please go see DR Jay Yapuri I promise you won't be disappointed.
Dr. Yepuri is great and takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes sure your comfortable with the treatment.
