Free IBS Conference ‘The Patient’s Perspective’

This year marks The IBS Network’s 25th Anniversary year and to celebrate we are holding a ground-breaking conference in April to coincide with IBS Awareness month.

Much of the enormous body of literature on IBS is written by medical opinion leaders and clinical researchers and quotes evidence for cause, diagnosis and treatment. Most conferences present the latest research and opinion; yet patients often feel that their experience is disregarded, they worry that their diagnosis is being missed. Our conference will focus on the opinions and needs of patients.

See below for more details and follow the links to secure your free ticket to this unique event. Tickets are free to those with IBS and for health care professionals. (Health care professionals will receive a certificate of attendance for CPD accreditation). But hurry, places are filling up fast to this must attend event of this year!

Are there ever any events in the South West? Bristol/Swindon/Reading way? Can't afford the near 400 mile round trip on zero income yet would like to attend a conference such as this.

Hi whiteladder42

This is our first event of this kind and we are only holding one at the moment, in the future we would like to hold events in other areas of the country. We are hoping to live stream or if we can't live stream the event have the content available for all to view after the event so you don't necessarily need to attend in person. Please keep a look out on our social media outlets for more information nearer the time.

Kind regards

The IBS Network

Hi, I'm in the same situation at whiteladder below, can't afford to travel to Sheffield - I live in Plymouth. Would love to know if there are any further conferences planned. Also, would love to know via this site when we can all view the information following the conference.
