Personal Health Beyond IBD

With a chronic diagnosis such as IBD, it is important to follow up regularly with your gastroenterologist (GI). It is equally as important to visit your primary care physician (PCP) regularly to maintain your overall health and well-being.

We encourage you to stay informed, practice good preventative care strategies, and maintain open communication with your doctors to obtain the right guidance for your individual needs. Below you will find information to help guide your discussions with your PCP regarding vaccinations, screenings, and other healthcare maintenance needs.
