Condition
Because your gut can hold the key to your whole-body wellbeing
Digestive symptoms such as bloating, reflux, abdominal discomfort, diarrhoea, constipation, nausea or unpredictable bowel habits are incredibly common. At Mosaic Medical, our functional medicine doctors work with patients across the UK by video consultation, supporting a wide range of gut conditions, including:
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
- Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)
- Chronic bloating and distension
- Reflux and heartburn (GERD)
- Post-infectious gut problems
- Chronic diarrhoea or constipation
- Food sensitivities and intolerances
- Histamine-related digestive problems and mast cell activation
- Leaky gut and increased gut permeability
- Gut-driven fatigue and nutrient malabsorption
- Dysbiosis and microbiome imbalance
- Digestive symptoms associated with autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease
Many people come to us after months or years of trying to understand what is happening in their gut, consulting multiple specialists, undergoing tests that return normal, or trying medications and diets that give only temporary relief.
Our functional medicine doctors combine conventional medical expertise with root-cause investigation to uncover what is driving your symptoms. We do not just settle for management. We work to understand why your gut is not functioning as it should, and how to restore balance and wellbeing over the long term.
Why Gut Issues Persist and Why They Can Be Complex
The digestive system is deeply connected to nearly every area of health: immunity, hormones, metabolism, detoxification, mood, and energy. Because of this, gut conditions often have multiple underlying contributors, including:
- Microbiome imbalance
- Gut barrier disruption, often described as leaky gut
- Food sensitivities or intolerances
- Chronic stress or trauma
- Hormone imbalances
- Nutrient deficiencies
- Environmental exposures
- Previous infections or antibiotic use
- Genetic predispositions
When only symptoms are treated, rather than the root causes, problems tend to recur. At Mosaic Medical, we explore the deeper story behind your digestive health so you can finally experience lasting improvement.
Our Root-Cause Approach to Digestive and Gut Health
We listen to your story and your gut history
Gut symptoms rarely begin in isolation. Your symptoms, stress, nutrition, sleep, history of infections, medications, travel and environment all shape how your digestive system behaves. Understanding your timeline often reveals connections that standard appointments miss.
We investigate what is driving your gut imbalance
We may recommend targeted investigations such as:
- Microbiome testing, including our Gut Health MOT
- Gut permeability assessments
- Food sensitivity testing
- Stool analysis for inflammation, digestion and pathogens
- Breath testing for SIBO
- Hormonal and thyroid< assessments
- Nutrient and metabolic panels
- Toxin, mould or environmental exposure screening
- Genetic testing when relevant
This helps us uncover what has been missed, and what your body needs in order to heal. You can read more about how testing has moved on in our article on the next generation of stool testing.
We Connect the Dots
We assess how your gut interacts with hormones, immunity, metabolism, detoxification and nervous system regulation. Understanding these connections is essential for long-term recovery.
We Personalise Your Plan
Your plan may include:
- Personalised nutrition tailored to your symptoms and biology. Where appropriate, your doctor will also work closely with our registered nutritional therapist so your nutrition is fully integrated with your medical care
- Gut-healing strategies, including microbiome support, targeted supplements and mucosal repair
- Stress and nervous system regulation
- Hormone and metabolic balancing
- Lifestyle, sleep and circadian optimisation
- Medication review when appropriate, in collaboration with your specialist or GP
- Genetic insights to guide personalised interventions
There are no generic protocols. Everything is tailored to you.

FAQs
Do I need abnormal tests to work with you?
No. Many patients we help have normal investigations but ongoing symptoms.
Can you collaborate with my GP or gastroenterologist?
Yes. We frequently share care with NHS and private clinicians and coordinate any medication changes with them.
Does this approach rely only on diet?
Diet is foundational, but true gut healing considers hormones, immunity, stress, metabolism, nutrition and the microbiome. We look at the whole system.
Can you test my gut microbiome?
Yes. Our Gut Health MOT combines advanced microbiome testing with a doctor review, and we can arrange stool analysis, breath testing and food sensitivity testing where they are likely to change your plan.
Do you offer appointments outside my local area?
Yes. All of our consultations are held online, so we work with patients throughout the UK.
How soon will I see improvement?
Some people feel better within weeks and others take longer. Our focus is sustainable, long-term progress rather than temporary fixes.
