Care for Kids with Digestive Needs
Kids commonly have tummy troubles, but sometimes these become more serious. Sanford Children’s takes a multidisciplinary approach to digestive health that includes nutrition, speech therapy, pediatric gastroenterology and psychology.
We offer expert care for a variety of digestive issues, including abdominal pain, chronic diarrhea or constipation, acid reflux, lactose intolerance, inflammatory bowel disease and nutrition problems. It’s important to find care for these as digestive health issues can threaten proper development in children.
Pediatric gastroenterologists are experts in children’s digestive health and gastrointestinal (GI) care, coordinating and providing endoscopic procedures when necessary. We also care for children who receive nutrition through gastronomy tubes or intravenously.
Similarly, children with feeding disorders may have complicated medical histories, neurodevelopmental disabilities, psychological disorders or disruptive mealtime behaviors. Specialists offer various levels of care based on each child’s unique needs.
