This week starts Propel a Cure's Roadmap to a Cure for Crohn's fundraiser!
While raising funding is critically important, passing along the latest knowledge in IBD along with interviews with people making huge strides in the field are also high-priority goals of the organization. I encourage you to watch Propel's fascinating interview with Dr. Michael Dolinger HERE.
Dr. Dolinger is a pediatric GI utilizing intestinal ultrasound for monitoring disease progression and therapy effectiveness. The up sides? NO possibility of infection, NO radiation, NO anesthesia, and NO prep needed. The gains for patients are incredible: visibility of all five layers of the bowel wall and the ability for both patients and providers to track healing or imbalances in real time.
We had the good fortune of receiving this care for our son and it is a game changer! We need to advocate for this to become to be accessible everywhere. Enjoy the interview, share widely, and if you can, please donate to Propel a Cure's Roadmap!
Thank you!
