Healthy Diet = Healthy Digestive System!
We understand the importance of a healthy diet to maintain a healthy digestive system. We offer comprehensive dietary support to our families. We collaborate with pediatric-trained registered dietitians in the area. Dr. Kunde works closely with their team and has trained these dietitians for specific pediatric GI conditions.
​
Although medications may be necessary for some GI diseases, a healthy diet and nutrition can help many GI conditions. Sometimes it's a combination of diet and medications that benefits patients.
