Inflammatory Bowel Disease Series: Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Special Populations: The Elderly, Obese and LGBTQ Patient
About this episode
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.
Guests: Amanda M. Johnson, M.D., and Victor G. Chedid, M.D., M.S.
This podcast continues our series on inflammatory bowel disease. The topic is important and timely: “Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Special Populations: The Elderly, the Obese and the LGBTQ Patient.” It’s critical that we broaden our perspective in addressing the unique challenges faced by these often-unrecognized population groups. How common is the presentation of inflammatory bowel disease in those over 65? How does age affect the treatments commonly used? Does obesity alter the disease presentation or activity and what are some of the unique challenges our LGBTQ patients face with inflammatory bowel disease? These are just some of the questions I’ll be asking my guests, Amanda M. Johnson, M.D., and Victor G. Chedid, M.D., M.S., both gastroenterologists at the Mayo Clinic.
