Your first appointment in our IBD clinic is essential for setting up contact with your IBD specialist who can then start making changes to get your disease under control.
The goal of your subsequent follow-up appointments is to review the results of your latest tests and investigations, monitor treatment progress, set up new goals, and ensure that you are provided with the best possible IBD care.
No, however due to the shared environment and genetics, the family, parents, siblings, and children of someone with IBD all have an increased risk of also having IBD.
