AI in IBD care: How Dr. Hwang's team is leading the way

Can AI help people with IBD get better care, faster? That’s the question explored in TIME Health's latest issue, and Dr. Caroline Hwang, Director of the Margolis Family Inflammatory Bowel Disease Program at the Hoag Digestive Health Institute, shared how her team is already exploring the possibilities. Dr. Hwang discussed how AI tools are beginning to assist in real-time documentation, helping physicians focus more on patients, and how advanced technologies — like Medtronic’s GI Genius — could one day help detect precancerous changes earlier, prevent colon cancer, and reduce unnecessary surgeries. She also shared her vision for how AI could support clinicians in choosing the right biologic treatments, ease administrative burdens such as insurance approvals, and help reduce “cognitive overload” in reviewing complex imaging and test data. At Hoag, Dr. Hwang and her colleagues are leading the way in pairing compassionate, expert-driven care with innovation that could redefine the future of IBD treatment. 👇 Read the full TIME Health article: “Can AI help people with IBD get better care, faster?
