Programs and services provided include:

  • Information and education: ausEE Inc. provides valuable information relevant to eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders through our website to both patients and physicians.  Our medical brochure Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders: What you should know is available from major hospitals and specialist clinics. Through campaigns we are raising greater public awareness and understanding of eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders, their impact and appropriate management options.
  • Support: We provide much needed support through our free online membership forums and we coordinate face-to-face support group meetings hosted in various locations across Australia.
  • Resources: Some of the resources we provide are the donation of hand-knitted ausEE kid dolls to gastroenterology clinics in hospitals to be given to kids undergoing endoscopies or surgery for EGID/EE, and we have produced a children’s picture book about an eosinophilic oesophagitis diagnostic journey.
  • Medical research: We fundraise to support medical research and clinical trials in Australia into eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders. We aim to improve the quality of life for people with eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders.
