VIRTUAL GUT HEALTH CLINIC

The Gentle Journey To Feeling Whole Again

Your wellbeing is something you deserve. Get the help you need to overcome IBS and SIBO now.  

Your gut health is not just a matter of comfort. It is a matter of urgency.


IBS and SIBO can have a profound impact on physical and mental well-being. It affects the daily lives of people suffering from the symptoms.

Practitioners not familiar with the topic of gut health, IBS, and SIBO often have difficulty identifying the root causes of these conditions. 


And so root causes get completely overlooked. They do not have the right approach to get you feel better. Is not their fault. And it is not your fault, too.


Our IFDW Gut Health Experts have extensive experience and training to understand the underlying root causes of your gut issues


Gut Health Experts will create an individualized plan to address your digestive health.


So take control of your gut health today and start living your best life.

How it works

At the Institute For Digestive Wellbeing, we understand that your health history and symptoms are unique.

We take a personalized approach to your care. 


Working with our gut health experts means we are committed to helping you reach your health goals.

Start your path to gut health with an in-depth online questionnaire followed by a personalized Intake Visit with your IFDW Gut Health Specialist.

This virtual meeting is designed to understand your unique health history and symptoms thoroughly.

It's convenient – you can do it from the comfort of your own home. 


Your specialist will dive into your case, offering the first step in your personalized plan to get you feeling better.

Next, we create your Personalized Protocol - a custom action plan to address your unique needs. 


This means every recommendation, from diet changes to lifestyle tweaks, will fit perfectly with your health background.


Want to dig deeper? We offer optional tests like the SIBO Breath Test or GI Map Test. 


 These can uncover the root cause of your symptoms and help us create an even more targeted plan for feeling better (these tests are an additional cost).

Plus, you get 4 follow-up consultations with your Gut Health Specialist – every two weeks


These virtual meetings will track your progress, fine-tune your plan as needed, and give you personalized tips to keep you on the road to feeling your best.

The New Way To Fight IBS & SIBO

Say goodbye to the frustration of endless referrals and one-size-fits-all antibiotics.


Modern IBS and SIBO treatments focus on YOU. 


Functional medicine practitioners and Registered Dietitians (gut health experts) work together to create personalized plans that address the root cause of your symptoms. 


This holistic approach blows away the frustration of past treatments and gets you on the road to better gut health.

Our doctors (MDs) and licensed dietitians work together to create a personalized plan for your unique needs. Our goal? To help you feel your best and reclaim your life.


Why We're Different

We understand that you might have been frustrated with other healthcare providers. Maybe they didn't specialize in gut health or offered a one-size-fits-all solution. At IFDW, we take a different approach. We focus on you as an individual, guiding you through the process based on your specific situation. But it's a two-way street: to see results, you'll need a genuine desire to improve your health and be open to making positive changes.


Ready to Take Charge?

We're here to empower you on your journey to better gut health. Start today.

Here's a breakdown of what you might experience in the US:

  • Weeks 2-3: Many people start feeling more energized and notice a difference in just a few weeks. This is a great kick-off to your wellness journey!
  • 1-2 Months: In ideal situations, you could see a significant improvement in your gut health within 1 to 2 months. That's a big win for your digestive system!
  • 4-6 Months: Some folks might take up to 4 to 6 months to see more dramatic changes. Remember, everyone's body works at its own pace.

The important thing is you're on your way to a healthier you! Stay consistent – the results will follow.

At IFDW, we believe coaching for gut health is more than just symptom management. We go beyond the surface to identify the root causes of your gut health issues. And we combine the precision of functional medicine with the careful approach of holistic practices. This helps creating a personalized roadmap for you. To lasting well-being.


Empowering Your Journey:

We know that every individual, every gut is unique. That's why we prepare individual action plans. Specifically tailored to your needs. Our registered dieticians, doctors, and gut health experts know the latest research.


A Collaborative Approach:

Through advanced diagnostics like breath and stool tests, we work with you to develop a plan for a healthier lifestyle. To make a change. To get you on the path to feeling significantly better. We don't just treat symptoms. At IFDW we empower you to take charge of your health. Always with the goal in mind to get you to a live you can live to the fullest again.


Up To Date:

The experts at IFDW are dedicated to staying ahead of the curve. Our team actively is on the look for latest research, collaborates with leading gut health experts worldwide, and is open for innovation. This ensures you receive effective treatment options available.

At the IFDW Institute for Digestive Wellbeing, we specialize in offering Health and Wellness consultations via Telephone and Video Calls.

Our team focuses on uncovering the root causes of your digestive issues. We aim to provide a holistic perspective as well as a functional medical approach.

You may benefit from our extensive experience. And so we can help in areas that are often overlooked by other practitioners.


Important to note: Due to our way of doing consultations, we can't act as a traditional PCP. Diagnosing medical conditions and prescribing medications require an in-person doctor-patient relationship. We cannot establish this virtually.


We believe a strong relationship with a local doctor is essential for your overall health. They can address any concerns that might need medication or other medical interventions.


Think of us as your partner in gut health! Our goal is to help you achieve optimal digestive health and overall well-being.

Many of our clients inquire if they can submit our invoices to their medical insurance. We understand navigating insurance policies can be complex. 


At IFDW Institute For Digestive Wellbeing, we prioritize your health and effective treatment. That is why we operate independently of medical insurance providers. That also includes Medicare and Medicaid.

This allows us to offer hyper-personalized care. Without the limitations by insurance plans.


This means our services are out-of-pocket. But we've experienced that our clients appreciate the value of our approach. 

The Virtual Clinic at the IFDW Institute For Digestive Wellbeing is our approach to deliver expert care directly to you.

The best is: it does not matter where you are. Our Virtual Clinic offers a convenient way for you to consult with our digestive health specialists. It is so easy: via Phone Call or Video Call.


From initial consultations to follow-up appointments, our Virtual Clinic provides comprehensive services including personalized treatment plans, and ongoing health management. All accessible from the comfort of your home or office. 

Everyone's journey is unique, and progress in therapy can happen at different paces. While we focus on making each session productive, the number of appointments you'll need can vary.


Typically, our therapists recommend seeing clients every 2-3 weeks.

Therapy is a personal journey, and everyone progresses at their own pace. Some people experience positive changes within a few weeks, while others may take longer. Our goal is to get you feeling better as quickly as possible.


Here's what to keep in mind:

  • Progress isn't always linear: There may be ups and downs along the way.
  • It's unique to you: How you respond to therapy will be different from others.
  • Your approach matters: Your active participation and willingness to try new things can significantly impact how quickly you see improvement.

We'll work with you to track your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
