Nader H. Balba, MD, gastroentorologist at Gastroentorology Associates of Northern Virginia, and affiliated with Inova Fair Oaks Hospital and Inova Fairfax Medical Campus has been named a 2016 Top Doctor in Fairfax, Virginia. Top Doctor Awards is dedicated to selecting and honoring those healthcare practitioners who have demonstrated clinical excellence while delivering the highest standards of patient care.
Dr. Nader Balba has been in practice for 18 years, and in that time has quickly become acknowledged as a leading expert in gastroentorology. His career in medicine began in 1997 when he graduated from the University of Connecticut School of Medicine. After this he furthered his studies at Georgetown University where he undertook an internship, residency, and then a fellowship.
In private practice, Dr. Balba treats a wide range of conditions, from Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease to hernias and hemorrhoids. He is also involved in research in the field of gastroentorology, particularly in the study of eosinophilic esophagitis. Board certified in gastroentorology, he often lectures on the subject at both local and national meetings, and his reputation as an expert in this field can be traced back to his training when he won a prestigious AAMA Outstanding Medical Research Award, as well as a Georgetown Internal Medicine Residency Ambulatory Care Award.
Always happy to pass on his skills and knowledge to others, Dr. Balba is also a Clinical Assistant Professor at George Washington University Hospital. He is also a member of the American College of Gastroentorology, American Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, and the American Gastroentorological Association.
