On the other hand, an urgent care center (NOT an ER) can be a real help--when I went in with abdominal pain, the doc I saw knew more about IBS than either of the GI docs I've seen  . He gave me sample meds (it's prolly an ulcer, not IBS-related), referred me for ultrasounds (I got in the next day), and made an appointment for me with a gastroenterologist. (He was one of the two clueless jerks, but whatever.) And for that matter, my new and wonderful nurse-practitioner knows a lot about IBS, too. So, I guess you never know what someone has read up on in their spare time.
