DrossmanCare

DrossmanCare is a healthcare organization founded by gastroenterologist Douglas A. Drossman focused on biopsychosocial, patient-centered care. It operates through a specialty gastroenterology practice and an educational center that trains clinicians in communication skills and the doctor-patient relationship. The organization emphasizes care for patients with difficult-to-diagnose functional gastrointestinal and motility disorders, including disorders of gut-brain interaction such as irritable bowel syndrome. Rather than a drug-development biotech company, DrossmanCare is a commercial healthcare services and medical education organization. Its offerings include direct patient consultations, workshops, mentoring, observerships, and communication training for providers and health systems.
