Miguel D. Regueiro, MD

May 23, 2022

In discussing the proper care of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Miguel Regueiro, MD, stresses the urgency of a "whole-care" therapeutic approach, characterized by an interdisciplinary spirit that values seeing patients in their entirety — biological and social.

Dr Regueiro relates his own efforts to create effective programs that put this philosophy into practice and predicts that this mentality and method will come to dominate models of IBD care in the years to come.
