Dr. Rita M. Steffen, MD

I grew up in North Ridgeville, Ohio. I truly believe this region is blessed with the healthcare that is available at Cleveland Clinic. I received excellent residency training in internal medicine and pediatrics here, and then went on to become board-certified in both of these fields. I completed fellowship training here in both adult and pediatric gastroenterology. I then focused my practice on the subspecialty of pediatric gastroenterology and see children from birth to 18 years, and some patients to about 21 years of age, depending on the condition. While on the professional Staff I received specialty training in motility disorders and procedures, and have added value to my department by expanding the range of procedures and tests available to evaluate the functioning of various parts of the digestive tract. An example of the disorders and services available in our department is on this web page for you to see. We can help!
