Northern Medical Group

What Northern Medical Group does

Northern Medical Group Gastroenterology Division is a private, physician-owned gastroenterology practice serving adults in the Hudson Valley region of New York from two clinic locations in Poughkeepsie and Fishkill, with a third historical site in Highland. The practice was founded in 2014 (tracing its lineage to The Digestive Disease Center of the Hudson Valley) and is staffed by four board-certified gastroenterologists (Drs. Hotchandani, Walczyk, Burrows, and Steckman), a family nurse practitioner, and a physician assistant. It provides diagnostic and therapeutic gastroenterology services spanning acid reflux, IBS, IBD, hepatitis, liver disease, hemorrhoids, and colon cancer screening.

The core technical asset is the Hudson Valley Endoscopy Center, the region's only free-standing ambulatory surgery center, which is NY State DOH-certified and AAAHC-accredited. Procedure offerings include upper GI endoscopy, colonoscopy, endoscopic ultrasound, ERCP, capsule endoscopy, FibroScan liver assessment, 3D anorectal manometry, esophageal motility testing, and CRH O'Regan hemorrhoid banding, supported by Olympus high-resolution narrow-band imaging and CO2 insufflation equipment. Operational infrastructure is built on eClinicalWorks EHR, Phreesia online scheduling, and a healow patient portal, with telehealth visits available alongside same-day in-person appointments.

The practice operates a fee-for-service / insurance-billed professional services model, accepting most major commercial plans plus Medicare and participating in patient-pay arrangements. Patient acquisition is driven by physician referrals, a content marketing blog, community events (IBS support groups, Celiac Walks), social media, local SEO, and patient testimonials; a partnership with Epicured extends the offering into low-FODMAP meal delivery for IBS patients. With 11–50 employees and no disclosed funding or M&A activity, the business is an independently operating, locally anchored specialty practice rather than a venture-backed platform.

Regional players

• Westmed Medical Group: Large multi-specialty physician group in the lower Hudson Valley / Westchester region offering gastroenterology among other specialties. Comparable regional outpatient physician services model with overlapping patient catchment in the New York metro periphery.
• Connecticut GI: Independent multi-physician GI group in neighboring Connecticut with affiliated endoscopy center. Comparable multi-location single-specialty practice serving a similar suburban Northeast demographic.

Direct peers

• Gastro Health: One of the largest PE-backed gastroenterology platforms in the U.S., operating multi-physician GI practices with affiliated endoscopy centers across multiple states. Directly comparable business model — outpatient GI consult, screening colonoscopy, advanced endoscopy, and ASC operations — at substantially greater scale.
• US Digestive Health: Northeast-focused PE-backed GI platform aggregating independent gastroenterology practices with endoscopy centers. Closest regional comparability given its concentration in the Mid-Atlantic and similar single-specialty ASC-integrated model.
• One GI: PE-backed gastroenterology practice platform operating multi-site GI groups and affiliated endoscopy centers. Directly comparable as an aggregator of independent GI practices seeking scale, physician recruitment, and ASC ownership.
• Allied Digestive Health: Mid-Atlantic and Northeast GI practice network combining independent gastroenterologists and endoscopy services. Highly comparable specialty mix (GI consult, screening, therapeutic endoscopy, hemorrhoid treatment) and geographic overlap with Hudson Valley catchment.
• Capital Digestive Care: Large independent gastroenterology group with multiple office locations and affiliated endoscopy centers in the Mid-Atlantic. Comparable multi-site GI practice model with integrated ASC operations and broad insurance participation.

Broad incumbents

• GI Alliance: Largest independent gastroenterology network in the U.S., formed via roll-up of regional GI practices. Comparable specialty services and ASC-centric model, though operating at significantly greater scale across multiple states.

Others

• CRH Medical (CRH O'Regan System): Provider of the CRH O'Regan hemorrhoid banding system used by the practice. Indirect relationship as a vendor/supplier of a key procedure technology; also operates its own anesthesia and GI service lines, partially overlapping the practice's clinical offering.
• Olympus Corporation of the Americas: Manufacturer of the high-resolution narrow-band imaging endoscopy equipment used by the practice's ASC. Not a competitor, but a critical technology supplier whose product roadmap influences the practice's clinical capabilities.
