Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are progressive, immune-driven conditions that demand advanced treatment. SKYRIZI in Thousand Oaks is part of a new generation of biologic therapies — alongside STELARA, TREMFYA, and ENTYVIO — designed to control inflammation, prevent flares, and protect long-term digestive health. At Cohen Medical Centers, Dr. Cohen combines SKYRIZI and other leading biologics with personalized infusion oversight and years of expertise, helping patients with IBD regain stability and quality of life.
When It Comes to Infusion Therapy, Experience Matters More Than Specialty
Though Dr. Cohen is not a gastroenterologist, his deep clinical experience with these IBD medications across rheumatologic conditions, such as psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis, makes him uniquely positioned to oversee and optimize their use in IBD patients — including advanced options like SKYRIZI infusion therapy in Thousand Oaks.
And unlike large hospital systems or understaffed clinics, our Infusion Center offers white-glove service in a comfortable setting with physician-led oversight and immediate access to a vast array of infusion medications.
Understanding IBD: Precision Treatment Is No Longer Optional
Both Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are progressive, immune-driven conditions. Without proper treatment and management they can result in severe, even life threatening complications, including:
- Bowel obstruction- block the passage of food and stool.
- Increase risk of colon cancer
- OP Annal fissures
- Ulcers
- Joint pain
- Skin problems
- Eye inflammation
- Liver complications
- Intestinal scarring
- Fistulas
- Bowel resections
- Fatigue
- Malnutrition
- Missed work or school and long term disability
- Emergency hospitalizations
- Chronic steroid use
- Systemic complications
The most effective way to take control of IBD is with biologic infusion therapy. At Cohen Medical Center, that therapy is fast, and it is built around your needs.
