Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a very common disorder that affects approximately 20 percent of the people in this country. It can present with abdominal pain, bloating and change in bowel habits – diarrhea and/or constipation.

The gastroenterologists at St. Luke’s Digestive Diseases and Liver Center have extensive experience in the evaluation and management of IBS. We often use a combination of dietary and lifestyle modification and medications to treat IBS.
