Dr. Roderick Kreisberg will continue to strengthen and optimize operations across our Capital Digestive Care.

Dr. Dan Neumann has held numerous executive leadership and advisory roles, including as president and chief executive officer of Gastrointestinal & Liver Specialists of Tidewater, PLLC, which partnered with Capital Digestive Care in 2021. He has been practicing gastroenterology and providing exceptional patient care in the Tidewater region for almost 20 years. In his new role, Dr. Neumann will provide executive and operational leadership over our laboratory services and practices across the Washington, DC and Tidewater, VA regions.
