A Personal Note From Me to You
Why IBD Academy means so much to me (and you)
IBD isn't just another condition I studied—it's the reason I'm here today. After my Ulcerative Colitis diagnosis, I found myself searching for ways to achieve lasting remission without relying on long-term medications. This search led me beyond my conventional medical training into functional medicine approaches that ultimately changed both my health and my career path. That's exactly why I created IBD Academy. This program combines everything I've learned as a patient, practitioner, and educator into a comprehensive approach to IBD care. It's the resource I wish I'd had when I first started exploring natural solutions for IBD.
Your patients need more than standard protocols—they need practitioners who understand the complexities of IBD and can offer real solutions.
I'm honored to share everything I've learned with you, and I look forward to supporting your journey in providing truly transformative IBD care.
Thanks for being here and I’ll see you inside,
