We understand how much discomfort and disruption to your life irritable bowel syndrome can cause, but you don’t need to suffer alone. Our gastroenterologists can help manage the condition, discuss diet and treatment options, and help you find relief from troublesome bowel issues so you can feel better again.

Irritable bowel syndrome: What you need to know

• IBS is a rather common ailment, though its cause is unclear. There is no single test to confirm a diagnosis.
• Many conditions can mimic the abdominal bloating, pain, diarrhea or constipation of IBS, so our specialists will need to rule out other conditions with the use of blood tests, stool sample tests or a colonoscopy.
• Once our gastroenterologists feel certain about the diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome, they can work with you to create an effective treatment plan.
• Though there is no cure, many patients find that they are able to control symptoms with diet modifications, medications and using therapies to reduce stress.
