DigestiveAZ.com is the official website of Digestive Health Specialists, a Scottsdale gastroenterology practice, and Arizona Digestive Health lists that same Princess Drive office and providers as one of its locations. In practice, the two names describe one Scottsdale team. This article explains how they fit together and which details to use when you book, based on what each organisation publishes.
Key takeaways
- Same address, same phone number and same providers appear under both names.
- The official practice website for the Princess Drive office is DigestiveAZ.com.
- Arizona Digestive Health runs other offices, including a separate North Scottsdale location.
- Always check the address on your appointment reminder.
Two names, one Scottsdale practice
Digestive Health Specialists was founded in 2005 and operates two related entities at Princess Medical Center: a physician practice in Suite 215 and an outpatient endoscopy center in Suite 117. Arizona Digestive Health, a larger Phoenix-area gastroenterology group affiliated with GI Alliance, lists the same office as “Digestive Health Specialists of Arizona – Scottsdale”, with matching address, phone number and providers.
For patients, that means you may come across the practice through either organisation. The physicians, the building and the phone number are the same.
Group affiliations like this are common in American medicine. Independent specialist practices often join or partner with larger networks to share resources such as administrative support, quality programs and technology, while keeping their local team and location. From a patient’s point of view, the most important things rarely change: who you see, where you go and how you reach the office. The names on letters, bills or online listings may simply reflect the wider network. If anything on a document confuses you, call the office and ask; staff field these questions every day and can confirm which practice and location your care is with.

Why this guide exists
DigestivEaz is an independent guide and is not affiliated with Digestive Health Specialists, Arizona Digestive Health, GI Alliance or SCA Health. We publish this explainer because the two names confuse many patients searching online. If you are a new patient, our first-visit checklist and the patient guides category will help you prepare. More updates appear in the blog, such as our article on colon cancer screening at 45. If you spot an outdated detail, please let us know through the contact page.
Getting the most from your visit
Whichever name led you to the practice, the patient experience starts the same way: a phone call to schedule, registration forms, and a first consultation in Suite 215. A little preparation helps you get the most out of that visit.
- Confirm whether your insurance plan needs a referral or prior authorization.
- Complete the registration forms from the official website before you arrive.
- Bring photo ID, your insurance card and a full medication list.
- Write a short summary of your symptoms, when they started and what you have tried.
- Save the address, suite numbers and phone number in your phone.
If your provider recommends a procedure, you will receive written preparation instructions, and the procedure itself takes place downstairs at the endoscopy center in Suite 117. Most patients go home the same day, with an adult driving them because of sedation.
Keeping your records together
Patients sometimes receive messages, results or bills that mention either name. Keep everything in one folder or use the patient portal so your history stays complete. When you call, mentioning that you are a patient at the Princess Drive office helps staff find your records quickly.
