Ersta IBD-Centrum
A multidisciplinary centre for inflammatory bowel disease at Ersta Hospital on Södermalm, formed by the hospital's surgical and medical clinics working together. Gastroenterologists, surgeons, specialist nurses, dietitians, a psychologist and a social worker (kurator) work in the centre, so patients reach the whole chain of care under one roof. It treats about 5,000 people with IBD and does around 80 major bowel operations a year. It also runs a dedicated clinic for young people moving from paediatric to adult care.
