Who to go to about pyloromyotomy?

Gen Surgery : General surgeons perform pyloromyotomies. However, you may want to consult a gastroenterologist who specializes in motility disorders first. Botox to the pylorus is a temporary intervention that mimics the effect of a pyloromyotomy. This can be helpful for temporary motility disorders, such as after infection.

If you are talking: ... about a young baby, the best physician to take care of the baby would be a pediatric surgeon. He/She could then perform the pyloromyotomy either openly or laparoscopically.
