@GutMD_ @MondayNightIBD @DCharabaty @abbvie @JNJInnovMed @TakedaPharma My $0.02/take home points when approaching pts with #VEOIBD & those with have refractory disease: -think about your immunology and genetic colleagues when patients aren’t responding despite multiple therapies -history taking is key -remember the impact of diet

@MondayNightIBD @DCharabaty @abbvie @JNJInnovMed @TakedaPharma 16 yo boy, Crohn's colitis + perianal fistulas at age3, growth failure;  Poor response to ADAL, now on IFX, still needs courses of prednisone. TL 10, no ATI H/o recurrent staph skin abscesses (axilla, perianal ), Aspergillus pneumonia  What would you do next?

@GutMD_ @MondayNightIBD @DCharabaty @abbvie @JNJInnovMed @TakedaPharma We talk about utilizing ALL aspect of therapy. When we talk about “combo”therapy, nutrition is an appropriate adjunct especially with #Crohns and often optimizers existing therapies.

@GutMD_ @MondayNightIBD @DCharabaty @abbvie @JNJInnovMed @TakedaPharma Nutritional optimization is a critical part in a multifaceted approach for Crohn’s, depending on the patient: therapy, nutritional optimization.

@GutMD_ @MondayNightIBD @DCharabaty @abbvie @JNJInnovMed @TakedaPharma In addition, there are different way of approaching nutritional therapy. EEN can be utilized for induction therapy and also utilized when considering adjunctive therapies in specific scenarios including patients who are pre-op for surgery.

@EmilyGeist11 Ugh. I am so sorry this has been so tough at times 😢

I really hope this makes a difference for patients forced to use Express Scripts and Accredo. We were forced to use them by our insurance for 3 months and I ended up in tears twice trying to get my daughter’s #IBD meds. loevy.com/press-release-…

@dr_fcalderaibd @mamatocrohns @AmCollegeGastro @AmerGastroAssn @AASLDtweets @CrohnsColitisFn Completely agree. @NASPGHAN

Disappointing ACIP vote today reversing 30+ years of universal hep B vaccination at birth. Medical societies must provide clear guidance to patients: the hepatitis B vaccine is safe, effective, and saves lives. @AmCollegeGastro @AmerGastroAssn @AASLDtweets @CrohnsColitisFn

Learning so much at the #NASPGHAN2025 Women in Medicine Breakfast! Thank you to the accomplished panels of leaders for sharing your wisdom and journeys: Drs. Rosen, Kim, Nicholson, Van Tilberg, Mileti, Furr

@JKurowskiMD @MVPHealthCare @CrohnsColitisFn @NASPGHAN

@MVPHealthCare denying a child’s right to infusion at our center for Crohns when they have significant medical trauma from IV placement. For 2 years, nursing & child life have worked so incredibly hard 2 help and they are doing so well. Why the denial now? Inflict more trauma?

@DrRosenIBD @CincyChildrens @SMCH_IBD_Celiac @StanfordPedsGI What a collection of #pedsGI #IBD rockstars!!

We were all privileged to learn from my mentor and friend Ted Denson @CincyChildrens during his visit last week to @SMCH_IBD_Celiac @StanfordPedsGI!

@EmilyGeist11 This post brought tears to my eyes… it is such a privilege to know all of you. Thank you for being such an inspiration to so many. Enjoy your vacation!

For the FIRST time since any of our family of 5 were diagnosed with #IBD - we are ALL currently in remission. It has taken over 10 yrs and many tough periods. I was not sure we would ever see this day and I could not be more grateful. Now to keep us this way… #TimeForSummerFun
