The Multidisciplinary Medical Surgical Clinic at Boston Children's Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Center is a clinic for children who have either had surgery or are considering surgery as a treatment for IBD. No matter the reason, the decision to pursue surgery requires careful coordination between your child's treating gastroenterologist and surgeon. Surgical outcomes are often influenced by a child's nutritional status so close involvement with a dietitian is important. Our social workers help support children and families to be sure we are addressing both their physical and emotional needs.
