Improving Care for Children with IBD, Crohn's and Colitis

The gastrointestinal system is big, with layers upon layers of complexities. Nowhere is this truer than in the colon and intestines, which make up a large part of our GI tract. But for kids who suffer from pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), this part of the GI system can also be the most problematic.

Whether you have a child with general IBD, Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, your care team at the Center for Digestive Health and Nutrition can help. This multidisciplinary IBD Program is dedicated to improving patient outcomes and includes physicians, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists.

In addition, our pediatric gastroenterology practice serves the largest population of IBD patients in Orlando and is the only practice in Central Florida with full-time registered pediatric dietitians. That means your family always has access to experts who can address specific food issues, restrictive food diets and diets for children with allergies.

One-of-a-Kind Care in Central Florida

Did you know all of your GI physicians at Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children are part of the Improve Care Now (ICN) Network? ICN is a national consortium of Pediatric GI programs leading the effort to provide the best care for patients with IBD. Studies have shown that the remission rates and well-being of IBD patients are significantly improved when they are treated at an ICN-affiliated hospital.
