What Is Inflammatory Bowel Disease?
Chronic abdominal pain, diarrhea, or unexplained weight loss may be more than just digestive discomfort — they could be IBD symptoms. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) refers to conditions that cause ongoing inflammation in the digestive tract. The two main types of IBD are Crohn's disease, which can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract, and ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon and rectum. Tayeb Gastroenterology & Associates in Rochester Hills, MI helps patients manage these conditions with personalized care and long-term treatment strategies. If you're experiencing symptoms of IBD, contact a member of our team to take the first step toward support and relief.
How Is IBD Diagnosed?
An accurate IBD diagnosis is the first step toward managing chronic inflammation and restoring digestive health. Patients may undergo a combination of lab tests, stool studies, imaging, and colonoscopy to evaluate the extent and location of inflammation associated with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. Once diagnosed, a custom inflammatory bowel disease treatment plan will be created by your Tayeb Gastroenterology & Associates provider, which may include anti-inflammatory medications, immune system suppressors, dietary adjustments, or advanced biologic therapies. Our team works closely with each patient to relieve symptoms, reduce flare-ups, and protect long-term intestinal health.
What Are the Benefits of Treating IBD?
Managing inflammatory bowel disease can greatly improve both physical comfort and overall quality of life. Patients in Rochester Hills, MI with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis receive tailored treatment plans to help reduce inflammation and manage ongoing symptoms.

Tayeb Gastroenterology & Associates Reviews
I recently had both a gastroscopy and colonoscopy done by Dr. Ghiath Tayeb and was incredibly impressed. From the initial consultation to the procedures themselves, everything was smooth, professional, and comfortable. Dr. Tayeb explained everything clearly and made me feel completely at ease. I was amazed by how quick and painless the procedures were—I didn’t feel a thing! What stood out most was the calm, reassuring environment he and his team created. I left feeling informed, cared for, and grateful. If you’re looking for a skilled and compassionate GI doctor, Dr. Tayeb is the best.
Dr. Reem Jarbou, D.O., is a member of the Tayeb Gastroenterology & Associates medical practice. I have basically experienced gastrointestinal issues all of my adult life. And, I have been treated by some very good professionals. None, however, have displayed the high level of professionalism, care, and concern as consistently shown by Dr. Jarbou and her staff. For which I am most grateful. I have recommended Tayeb Gastroenterology & Associates - without any hesitation - to friends requiring services of that nature. In response, I have been told their experience was equally as positive.William T.,Oxford,Michigan
One of the best Doctors to have. Ty for the great care.
Dr Farshadsefat is a great physician. Very respectful and genuinely caring physician who listens to patients and attends to their needs promptly. Very knowledgeable and skilled physician and goes above and beyond to care for his patients. He answers all inquiries and messages promptly and follows up.
I first met Dr. Seina when I was admitted in the hospital after struggling for two years with GI issues that had been undiagnosed. I immediately switched to him and couldn’t rave about his bedside manner and knowledge more. He listens, is prompt with his follow-up and thankfully got me on the right care plan. Highly recommend.
