A Comprehensive Team Approach to Intestinal Rehabilitation

The intestinal rehabilitation team includes pediatric gastroenterologists, neonatologists and surgeons, a psychologist, dietitians, rehabilitation therapists, speech-language pathologists (feeding specialists), nurse coordinators and a social worker. The entire team works together to evaluate each child and develop an individualized care plan. We ensure families receive the education and resources necessary to meet their child's needs through every stage of life.
