IV infusion, also referred to as infusion therapy, is a method of administering medications to individuals directly through an intravenous (IV) injection. Infusion therapy is usually considered when other forms of delivery are not an option or simply fail to produce the required results. A lot of modern biologic drugs are produced from living cells, meaning they would lose effectiveness if introduced through the patient's digestive system. In these cases, infusion therapy might be an alternative. Biologic medicines are commonly applied to help treat ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, and other inflammatory bowel disorders and autoimmune ailments.

Dr. Memon is an excellent provider who is well-versed in nutritional support for gastrointestinal issues. He will listen to your complaints and help you develop a clinical plan that is tailored to your individual health needs including supportive measures (diet and lifestyle modification), medications, and procedural/surgical interventions when necessary. He is up-to-date on his medical knowledge and has 30 years of experience to prove it. I would highly recommend Dr. Memon if you are looking for a provider that cares about you as a person and not just what will satisfy insurance claims requirements.

Dr. Gutta, his nurse, Mary, and the rest of the staff at TDDC have been great every time I’ve spoken to or seen them throughout my several visits with them this year. I’ve recommended their office to a couple of patients at my workplace, an infusion therapy center, and will recommend them to errrbody in the future! Thanks Dr. Gutta, Mary, and all of TDDC ☺️
