Pages: 1 GREAT DOCTOR FOR IBS       #367366 - 05/02/12 05:39 PM Edit Reply Quote IBSDoc2012 Reged: 05/02/12 Posts: 2 Good Evening Everyone! I wanted to share with you the name of an excellent doctor. I know that we all suffer so long and it's so difficult to find a doctor who can help. Dr. Douglas Drossman is amazing! I had suffered with IBS for more than 5 years, gone to doctor after doctor. No one seemed capable of helping. I was so sick, I lost more than 25lb and was in constant pain! Finally, at 22 years old I went down to North Carolina on a whim (I found his name online) and was so glad I did! He focuses on the whole person! Mind and Gut. He is so caring, so attentive. I didn't expect a cure, I just wanted to be able to enjoy life again: eat dinner with my family, go out with friends... Dr. Drossman uses biopsychosocial medicine to treat the whole person. In fact, my first visit was 2 hours long! He never rushes anybody out of his office, and he will NEVER give up on making you feel better!! So, how can you see him? Simple. He has just started his own clinic after creating and co-directing the Center for Functional and Motility Disorders at UNC for 35 years! He is currently accepting new patients (normally there is a 6 month waiting list). Here is his website: http://www.chapelhilldoctors.com/ Give his office a call today.

A few members of this board most of whom no longer visit the board were his patients. Personal communications with some of them suggest he is an excellent IBS physician who takes the time to fully explain the disorder.
