Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) disrupts the daily lives of millions. At Patients Medical in New York City, we don’t settle for symptom management—we investigate why your gut is out of balance. Through a combination of functional, holistic, and conventional medicine, we address IBS at its root.
Because a healthy gut means a healthy life.
IBS is a functional gastrointestinal disorder, meaning it affects how your gut works—but doesn’t show up on standard medical tests. Symptoms include:
IBS can fluctuate with stress, food, and hormone changes. It’s often diagnosed when other digestive conditions are ruled out.
There’s no single cause of IBS. Functional medicine looks at multiple triggers that can create inflammation, nervous system dysregulation, and digestive imbalance:
We go beyond routine labs to uncover hidden imbalances:
Based on lab results, we create gut-healing plans using:
Personalized IVs may include:
We offer:
Evidence-backed support like:
IBS symptoms are often worse around menstruation, menopause, or thyroid dysfunction. We test and balance hormones to improve gut regularity.
Jason, 39, came to us after years of alternating diarrhea and constipation, fatigue, and anxiety. GI specialists had ruled out IBD but labeled it “IBS.”
We discovered:
Treatment included:
Within 8 weeks, Jason’s symptoms decreased by 80%. After 3 months, his digestion normalized, and his energy returned.
IBS is a functional disorder with no visible inflammation or damage. IBD (like Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis) shows clear inflammation and can cause lasting tissue damage.
Yes, up to 80% of people with IBS test positive for SIBO. It’s a major underlying cause of gas, bloating, and irregular bowels.
Absolutely. The gut and brain are deeply connected. Chronic stress disrupts digestion, motility, and microbiome balance.
Common triggers include gluten, dairy, caffeine, alcohol, high FODMAP foods, and artificial sweeteners.
Yes—many patients experience complete or near-complete resolution of symptoms through root-cause treatment.
Not necessarily. We use temporary elimination diets to identify triggers, then work toward long-term flexibility and food freedom.
Yes. IBS is linked with anxiety and depression due to gut-brain axis dysfunction and neurotransmitter imbalances in the gut.
This could be due to SIBO or histamine intolerance. We tailor probiotics based on your specific needs.
Most patients see improvement within 4–8 weeks. Full healing may take 3–6 months depending on complexity.
We are out-of-network but provide superbills for possible reimbursement. Some labs may be covered by insurance.
Patients Medical specializes in gently helping the patient identify the root cause of their medical issues and then assist them to recover from their problems to help them move forward to good health.
