Welcome to appalmed.com
At Appalachian Gastroenterology a team approach is used which we feel
best meets the needs of our patients. In addition to seeing a physician, you
may also see a physician assistant during one of your visits. Physician
assistants are health care professionals licensed to practice medicine with
physican supervision. PAs conduct physical exams, diagnose and treate
illnesses, order and interpret tests, counsel on preventive health care, and
in most states can write prescriptions. For more information about the
physician assistant profession, go to
