Gut Health & Digestive Care in Denver
You have been bloated for years. You have cut out foods, tried the probiotics, and had the scope that found nothing. Nothing found is not the same as nothing wrong.
What this looks like day to day
- Bloating that arrives by mid-afternoon regardless of what you ate
- Alternating constipation and urgency
- A list of foods you have quietly stopped eating
- Reflux you manage with daily medication
- Skin flares or joint aches that track with digestion
- A normal colonoscopy and no explanation
Why the workup came back empty
Standard GI workups are designed to rule out structural disease: ulcers, celiac, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer. When those are ruled out, most people are handed a diagnosis of exclusion and sent home.
That leaves the functional layer untouched. Bacterial overgrowth, low-grade dysbiosis, insufficient digestive enzyme output, and intestinal inflammation do not show up on a scope.
The gut also does not act alone. It drives immune activity, hormone clearance, and mood, which is why gut work often resolves symptoms that seemed unrelated.
What we actually test
- ✓Comprehensive stool analysis and microbiome sequencing
- ✓Markers for parasites, bacteria, viruses, and antibiotic-resistant genes
- ✓Intestinal inflammation markers
- ✓Digestive enzyme and absorption markers
- ✓Food sensitivity panel
- ✓Targeted follow-up testing based on what the first round shows
Testing is chosen from your history, not run as a fixed bundle. What gets ordered is decided together in your intake appointment, and the results are explained to you in plain language.
