Precision Microbiome Testing with Clinical Expertise
Mapping and healing your unique gut flora.
At the Center for Integrative Gastroenterology, our clinical team offers expert guidance on cutting-edge whole-genome microbiome sequencing to identify the root causes of digestive issues, inflammation, and overall wellness concerns. By analyzing your gut flora, we provide data-driven insights and personalized treatment strategies to rebalance healthy bacteria.
Precision Treatment for Your Specific Microbiome
We believe in a highly personalized approach to digestive health. Using advanced diagnostics and a deep understanding of the gut microbiome, we help patients manage conditions such as IBS, SIBO, and chronic inflammation, while also supporting overall wellness. Our goal is to empower each individual to achieve lasting vitality and an improved quality of life.
We do not stop at test results. Our medical team interprets findings with clinical expertise, ensuring that every insight is meaningful and tailored to your needs. From there, we design targeted nutrition plans along with prebiotics and probiotics that are formulated specifically for your unique microbiome. These are not generic, off-the-shelf supplements. Each treatment is carefully crafted to address your individual imbalances and restore the missing microbes your system needs for resilience and long-term health.
Our Microbiome Program
A structured six-month program designed to assess, track, and improve microbiome health with expert guidance.
Our Tailored Plan Includes:
-
Our clinicians will consider your full medical history and any other health concerns alongside your microbiome data for a more integrated approach.
-
Advanced testing with detailed analysis to get a snapshot of your microbiome’s current state.
-
Beginning with a simple sample collection, we send it to a specialized lab for whole-genome sequencing to map your unique microbiome. Once we receive results, we review them with you in detail, identifying key imbalances and insights into your gut health.
-
Based on your results, we can design a personalized prebiotic formulation to support your unique gut microbiome and help restore balance over a six-month course.
-
Based on your results, we can design personalized probiotic formulations (up to two) to support your unique gut microbiome and help restore balance over a four month course.
-
We create a personalized nutrition plan tailored to your microbiome results and health goals. This plan emphasizes whole foods, targeted dietary strategies, and sustainable habits designed to restore balance, reduce symptoms, and support long-term gut health.
-
As needed, a tailored approach based on your results, your medical history, and your unique microbiome. This may include treatments such as targeted medications when clinically indicated.
-
A snapshot of your microbiome six-months into treatment to assess progress and check in on how your gut is responding.
-
At the six-month mark, we conduct a follow-up analysis of your microbiome to measure changes since your initial evaluation. Together we review the updated results, track improvements, and identify any persisting imbalances, ensuring your care plan continues to support lasting gut health.
A Comprehensive Approach to Understanding and Treating Your Microbiome
We begin by reviewing your full medical history to understand not only your gastrointestinal concerns but your overall health profile. We then conduct full-genome sequencing of your gut microbiome, generating a highly detailed map of your unique microbial landscape. Using advanced analysis, we identify specific imbalances and can formulate prebiotics and probiotics that are compounded specifically to address your unique gut flora. This six-month program may also include targeted dietary or medication adjustments. At the end of the program, we repeat the genome sequencing to assess progress. For those who wish to continue, an optional six-month extension allows for ongoing treatment and reassessment every six months based on updated sequencing results.
About the Microbiome
Your microbiome, the vast ecosystem of bacteria, fungi, and viruses in your gut, plays a critical role in digestion, immunity, metabolism, and even mental health. Once overlooked, the microbiome is now at the forefront of medical research, with groundbreaking studies linking its balance to conditions like IBS, autoimmune disorders, and mood regulation. Advances in whole-genome sequencing allow us to analyze the microbiome with unprecedented precision, identifying specific imbalances and tailoring interventions with targeted prebiotics, probiotics, and dietary strategies. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, personalized microbiome care is shaping the future of medicine, offering new ways to restore gut health and optimize overall well-being.
By understanding your unique microbiome composition, we can move beyond symptom management to address the root causes of digestive and inflammatory conditions. A disrupted microbiome can contribute to chronic bloating, food intolerances, fatigue, and systemic inflammation. With cutting-edge diagnostic tools and evidence-based therapies, we develop personalized treatment plans that support microbial diversity, strengthen gut integrity, and promote long-term health. Whether through precision nutrition, microbiome-based therapeutics, or lifestyle modifications, restoring balance to your gut is a key step toward overall vitality.
Gut-Brain Connection
The relationship between your gut and brain is more profound than ever imagined. Known as the gut-brain axis, this bi-directional communication network links your microbiome to mood, cognition, and overall mental well-being. Research has shown that gut bacteria produce neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, directly influencing anxiety, depression, and stress resilience. An imbalanced microbiome can trigger systemic inflammation, disrupt brain signaling, and contribute to conditions like brain fog, fatigue, and mood disorders. By optimizing gut health through targeted interventions, whether dietary, probiotic, or lifestyle-based, we can support mental clarity, emotional balance, and overall cognitive function. Your gut isn’t just the center of digestion; it’s a key player in how you think, feel, and function every day.By understanding your unique microbiome composition, we can move beyond symptom management to address the root causes of digestive and inflammatory conditions.

As research into the microbiome continues to evolve, so does our understanding of its role in overall health. What was once a niche area of study is now central to conversations about digestion, immunity, metabolism, and even mental well-being. With new discoveries emerging rapidly, it is more important than ever to separate meaningful advancements from passing trends. A thoughtful, science-driven approach ensures that microbiome care is not just innovative, but truly effective in supporting long-term health.
