JAMISON, Pa., March 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- PE GI Solutions entered into a strategic partnership with Emerson Hospital to open Emerson Endoscopy & Digestive Health Center. 

Emerson Endoscopy & Digestive Health Center is a spacious, state-of-the art facility that provides patient-centered care and necessary procedures in a comfortable setting. The facility is equipped with cutting-edge equipment and is the only hospital-owned outpatient endoscopy center in the region.
