Managing Inflammatory Bowel Disease

For reasons that are not altogether certain, Inflammatory Bowel Disease is affecting more and more Americans every year. In this program from The Doctor Is In, Drs. Scott Plevy, formerly of Mount Sinai School of Medicine, and Susan Edwards, of the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, seek to understand the spreading incidences of Crohn’s disease and colitis, the two primary forms of IBD, while describing pharmaceutical and surgical treatment options. Case studies of two young women with IBD focus on how they manage their debilitating conditions. A Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center Production. (30 minutes)
