About Dr. Ron Palmon
COVID-19 UPDATE: We are now offering Telehealth in place of in-person visits, when appropriate.
I am a board-certified gastroenterologist based on the Upper East Side. I specialize in gastroenterology and liver disease, including acid reflux, abdominal pain, irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, diarrhea, swallowing disorders, gastrointestinal bleeding, colon polyps and cancer, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, hepatitis, gallstones, and diseases of the bile duct and pancreas. I perform procedures such as colonoscopy and upper endoscopy with an anesthesiologist.
I earned my Bachelor's degree from Brown University and my Doctor of Medicine from New York University. I completed my residency in Internal Medicine at New York University Medical Center and my fellowship in Gastroenterology at The Mount Sinai Hospital.
