Manar Shmais is a gastroenterologist who specializes in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) - which includes both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease - affecting adult patients ages 18 and older. In addition to IBD, she also treats general gastrointestinal illnesses, as well as microscopic colitis.
