In his foreword, Dr. Bayless states the purpose of the new book: "We want to provide the most current information available on the medical and surgical treatment of IBD...[The book is] not to replace your physician, nor to dictate how your IBD should be treated. Rather, we hope the information contained here will make you a better informed patient who can understand what your doctor is doing and why. As your understanding grows, you will be able to ask better questions and become more involved in your care." |
