“Watching a close family member go through treatment for colon cancer and eventually pass away from the disease inspired me to pursue a specialty in gastroenterology. My devotion to helping others avoid colon cancer and other digestive diseases coupled with a genuine fascination with the complexity of the gastrointestinal system has made my medical career very satisfying.”
After completing Dr. Daruwala’s fellowship in Gastroenterology, he went on to complete training in endoscopic ultrasound and was on staff at Temple University Hospital for 3 years prior to joining Hunterdon Gastroenterology. Dr. Daruwala established the endoscopic ultrasound program at Hunterdon Medical Center.
“Like many gastroenterologists, I enjoy the technological aspect of my specialty. Because of my training and experience, I am proud to have been the first gastroenterologist in Central New Jersey to offer endoscopic ultrasound. This emerging technology is quickly becoming the gold standard in the diagnosis of various gastrointestinal illnesses. With endoscopic ultrasound, we are able to get high quality information about a patient’s condition in a way that is much easier and less invasive than other diagnostic procedures.”
“Hunterdon Gastroenterology Associates is very technology-forward, investing in new and proven diagnostic and treatment equipment and systems that make a difference in the comfort, convenience and outcomes of our procedures. This is an important reason we are leaders in the region when it comes to gastroenterology—and one of many reasons I am enjoying being the newest member of the team.”
Dr. Daruwala has been with Hunterdon Gastroenterology Associates since 2012 and has been named a NJ Top Doctor in 2016, 2017, and 2018. He has lived in the Philadelphia – New Jersey area his entire life. His parents have been residents of Ringoes for more than 20 yrs. He has authored numerous publications in high profile journals such as Gastrointestinal Endoscopy and Annals of Surgery. In his spare time, he enjoys traveling and spending time with his wife and 2 daughters.
