Drossman Gastroenterology

Drossman Gastroenterology refers to a specialized field of medicine that focuses on disorders of the digestive system, particularly those related to the brain-gut connection. It emphasizes understanding and treating conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and other functional gastrointestinal disorders by considering both physical and psychological factors. The Drossman Center, founded by Dr. Douglas Drossman, aims to provide comprehensive care through patient-centered approaches, integrating medical, psychological, and dietary strategies. This approach acknowledges the complex interactions between the digestive system and overall well-being, highlighting the importance of individualized care in managing gastrointestinal health.
