Chow, MD, director of gastroenterology and endoscopy at Lahey Clinic, North Shore, in Peabody, Mass., says ulcerative colitis symptoms can, in fact, be controlled. “Even when ulcerative colitis symptoms flare up, we can usually get the disease back into remission with the right treatment.” However, “There is no cure for ulcerative colitis,” says Bo Shen, MD, a gastroenterologist at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio.
