The Schubert-Martin Inflammatory Bowel Disease / IBD Center at Cincinnati Children's provides a focused, team approach to comprehensive, individualized diagnosis and treatment for patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
Our IBD experts use the latest diagnostic methods, research-based treatments and surgical approaches to develop effective, customized approaches for each patient -- where families and referring physicians are integral to the process. Our team takes a multidisciplinary approach that includes medical, surgical, behavioral medicine, nutrition, expert nursing care and, if needed, chronic pain management. Patients are seen by experts in a variety of disciplines during the same clinic to plan the most coordinated treatment approach as quickly as possible.
We are dedicated to optimizing care for young children and teens who each day struggle with inflammatory bowel disease as they face unique challenges, such as growth, hormonal and bone health issues.
Because of this, pediatric patients often need more advanced treatments than adults. Thanks to our specialization in pediatric medicine, our team is the best resource to turn to when faced with these unique issues.
Close interaction among center members – all based at the Cincinnati Children’s Burnet Campus – means better, faster treatment for patients and their families. Our interdisciplinary approach to inflammatory bowel disease means that we treat more than just the condition; we focus on all aspects of caring, including the overall quality-of-life issues facing our patients every day.
