An IBS gastroenterologist is a medical professional specialising in the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, including IBS. They should have extensive experience in diagnosing and treating IBS and be up-to-date with the latest research and treatment options. During your consultation, they will take a thorough medical history, conduct a physical examination, and may order diagnostic tests to rule out other conditions. Based on their findings, they will provide a tailored treatment plan to manage your IBS symptoms effectively.
