I have been dx with IBS by a primary care dr based on my symptoms. I am looking for a good GI specialist who can do a full dx & follow up treatment. I am in the Chicago area.

I searched this forum & came up with Dr. David Rubin but his office told me he doesn't treat IBS & that I should see a GI doctor first because he's a super specialist.

I would appreciate any advice.

look into northwestern hospital.
They have special psychologists that are geared towards GI
I am seen by one of David Rubin's colleagues and am considering making the switch to northwestern because of the psychologists there
But the GI team at university of chicago is probably the best in the city.
If you call 773-702-1000 you can speak to someone who can help you find the right doctor.

Dr. Sushila dalal at u of c is an excellent physician but she might only deal with Ibd.
I saw her when I was inpatient and was really happy with her care.
