Dr. Ashok calls medicine “a family tradition.” With a father who’s a surgeon and grandfather who’s a physician, Dr. Ashok developed his keen interest in medical practice at a young age. He derives the most satisfaction from caring for patients with digestive and liver disorders. Trained in endoscopic treatments, he manages cirrhosis, chronic liver disease, hepatitis, inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, celiac disease, GERD, and other general GI issues. Patients may be interested to know that Dr. Ashok is a lifelong UCLA Bruins and Los Angeles Lakers fan.
