Improving communication in DGBI care

Disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBIs) like IBS are among the most common presentations in GI practice, yet many patients still leave appointments feeling confused or invalidated.

In this webinar, Kristina Skarbinski, a GI nurse practitioner at Massachusetts General Hospital, shares practical ways to strengthen communication and improve care for patients with DGBIs.

You’ll learn how to:

Explain gut-brain axis dysfunction in clear, patient-friendly terms
Avoid the “It’s all in your head” misconception
Engage patients in shared decision-making
Build trust and reduce diagnostic stigma
Introduce therapies like gut-directed hypnotherapy with confidence

Support better outcomes from the first consult

Watch the webinar to learn practical strategies for guiding patients through DGBI care – and why the right conversation can make all the difference.
