ST. LOUIS – SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital is the first and only hospital in our area offering IB Stimulation for pediatric IBS patients.
Dr. Dhiren Patel, SLUCare Gastroenterologist and Director of the Pediatric GI Motility Center, says irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) affects up to 35% of children under the age of 18. IBS often causes severe abdominal pain often lasting hours at a time and can include headaches.
