Description

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) affects 12% of the population, with females twice as likely to suffer from this illness.  Many patients with IBS are difficult to treat, for many reasons that Dr. Peter Buch, a clinical gastroenterologist, will explore.  This case-based presentation will provide the answers to challenging and common questions: 
 

  • How do you best diagnose IBS with the testing that is available today? 
  • Who should be referred to a gastroenterologist for care? 
  • Should all patients get a colonoscopy? 
  • What are the current evidence-based treatments?
