Marla Dubinsky, MD, CEO and Co-Founder Trellus Health said:
“Trellus represents a paradigm shift in the way that we support patients with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis incorporating a whole-person methodology that has, to date, been missing from the collective approach. Trellus reflects the learnings, frustrations and passion that has resulted from the nearly 25 years both Dr Laurie Keefer and I have dedicated to improving the lives of individuals with IBD. At Trellus we hope to empower patients to master the art of self-management, manage their IBD with confidence, and improve health outcomes at a significantly lower cost.”
