What Is Irritable Bowel Syndrome?
Chronic stomach discomfort, bloating, or unpredictable bowel habits may be more than just a passing issue; they could be signs of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Irritable bowel syndrome is a common digestive disorder that affects the large intestine and often causes abdominal pain, cramping, gas, diarrhea, or constipation. While the exact irritable bowel syndrome causes aren't fully understood, stress, gut-brain interaction, certain foods, and hormonal changes may play a role. At Tayeb Gastroenterology & Associates, our team of gastroenterologists helps patients in Rochester Hills, MI manage IBS with personalized care and effective symptom relief strategies. Reach out today to learn how to take control of your digestive health.
How Is IBS Diagnosed?
Diagnosing irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) involves a careful review of symptoms, medical history, and often ruling out other digestive conditions through lab tests, imaging, or colonoscopy. Our specialists at Tayeb Gastroenterology & Associates may diagnose patients with different subtypes, such as IBS-C (constipation-predominant) or IBS-D (diarrhea-predominant), depending on their bowel habits. Once identified, a custom IBS treatment plan may include dietary changes, stress management, medications, or probiotic support. The goal of any treatment for irritable bowel syndrome is to ease symptoms and improve your overall quality of life through targeted, ongoing care.

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.
