Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. (@ChutkaMD)

Guest: Jana Al Hashash, M.D., M.S.

Crohn’s Disease is an inflammatory bowel disease, but on occasion, it can involve much more than the bowel. The disease can affect any part of the digestive tract, from the mouth to the anus. It’s estimated that more than half a million people in the U.S. have Crohn’s disease and over time, it’s become more common, not only in the U.S., but in other parts of the world as well. It can result in a variety of complications and also results in an increased risk of colon cancer. The topic for this podcast is Crohn’s Disease and my guest is Jana Al Hashash, M.D., M.S., from the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology from the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. We’ll be discussing the typical presenting symptoms of Crohn’s, the recommended evaluation of a patient with suspected Crohn’s and the current treatment options.
