IBDesis Patient Support Group
At SAIA, we recognise the importance of non-judgemental spaces in supporting and empowering South Asian IBD patients and their caregivers to seek timely care, advocate for themselves and lead full lives.
To ensure no IBD patient feels alone in their journey, we run a private patient support group on Facebook for IBD patients and caregivers of South Asian origin.
