Gastrointestinal Disorders

Whether you have a diagnosed gastrointestinal disorder (such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Crohn’s Disease or Colitis) or have undiagnosed gastrointestinal symptoms (such as bloating, constipation or diarrhea), our dietitians can help. As part of your healthcare team, we can take the time to assess your unique situation and work with you to help you discover how food and nutrition fits into your situation. There is significant overlap with gastrointestinal problems, eating disorders, and food allergies & intolerances. Nutrition is often an important key to healing.
