Reza Khoshini, MD
Medicine is both a science and an art. As a physician, I have the unique opportunity to help patients using both of these skills, and I enjoy what I do. I highly enjoy practicing gastroenterology with a special interest in pancreaticobiliary disorders and GI oncology. Since joining Sharp Memorial Hospital in 2009, we have been able to perform cutting- edge procedures in the field of therapeutic endoscopy, such as endoscopic ultrasound, radiofrequency ablation of esophagus, endorectal ultrasounds and endoscopic mucosal resection. My goal in practicing gastroenterology is to offer education and the best possible treatment options for my patients. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my wife and three children. We love all kinds of outdoor activities, such as beach sports, hiking, tennis and traveling.

William Minteer, MD
My passion for medicine was born from a desire to heal others. Patients know their body best and it is my privilege to create an individualized treatment plan to address their symptoms. Comprehensive care begins with listening to the patient. My treatment philosophy is to consider lifestyle interventions prior to medical or endoscopic therapies. My special interests include interventional endoscopy, gastrointestinal motility disorders, and inflammatory bowel disease. My procedural expertise includes upper endoscopy, deep enteroscopy, colonoscopy, capsule endoscopy, ERCP, gastrointestinal stent placement, and gastrostomy tube placement, among other procedures. I am a San Diego native and am committed to improving the health of my community. Outside of medicine, I enjoy hiking with my wife, daughter, and golden retriever. My other interests include medical device innovation, golfing, surfing and pole vaulting.

Hello, I’m Denise a PA at San Diego Digestive Disease Consultants. I’m passionate about gastroenterology and dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive care to all my patients. I believe in building strong relationships with my patients and working collaboratively with physicians to achieve the best possible outcomes. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of San Diego (USD), earning degrees in Biochemistry and International Relations. I went on to pursue Physician Assistant (PA) training at Northwestern University in Chicago, where I graduated at the top of my class. I have the immense pleasure of working here since 2022. I love GI and feel very fortunate to work with such a dedicated and intelligent group of clinicians. Outside of work, I’m a new mom to twins and spend a lot of my time at the dog park or on a run.
