I'm having a very hard time finding a good Pediatric Gastro in my area. Can anyone recommend a good kids gastro in the Atlanta region? I'm willing to drive some distance if people can recommend from their personal experiences.

My 4 yr old is having some new problems so I need a dr to do a new evaluation on what might be going on.

Thanks!

I highly recommend Dr. Jeffery Lewis at Children's Center for Digestive Health Care across the street from Scottish Rite Hospital. Dr. Lewis is the best there is for pediatric celiac disease. He founded the local chapter of ROCK (Raising Our Celiac Kids). Very dedicated, smart and friendly.

Good Luck!

I will highly recommend Children's Center for Digestive HealthCare.

(affectionatly known as GI Care 4 kids) We use Dr. Stanley Cohen there, but I think all their doctors are good. They're located right across the street from Scottish Rite in Atlanta. They have been wonderful. My son was diagnosed Feb. 2009.

They have a R.O.C.K. Chapter that started out of that doctor's office, (Raising Our Celiac Kids).

Their number is 404-257-0799.

Thanks everyone. I'll see if I can get her in to one of them and get a better answer to her issues.

      Increasing symptoms after going gluten free

      By Aussie Celiac · Posted

      Sometimes celiacs can also have other things like lactose intolerance which is fairly common. Also research fodmap foods, it's quite complicated but there are some other foods which can cause digestive issues. For me it's too many onions and garlic.

      You may be reacting to some of the ingredients used to imitate gluten products. I eat Amy's Chilli quite often with no problems. When I eat Bush's chilli beans or Hormel Chilli with the same ingredient list, I get heartburn.  Break out the alka seltzer.   Barillo spaghetti has CORN FLOUR, RICE FLOUR, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES. Udi's White bread Ingredients - water, tapioca starch, brown rice flour, canola oil, dried egg whites, sugar, tapioca maltodextrin, tapioca syrup, sorghum flour, less than 2% of: rice starch, sorghum grain, flaxseed meal,  gum blend (xanthan gum, sodium alginate, guar gum), apple cider vinegar, apple fiber, molasses, salt, amaranth flour, teff flour, yeast, cultured brown rice, locust bean gum, enzymes Chobani Greek Yogurt Cultured nonfat milk, cane sugar, water, natural flavors, fruit pectin, guar gum, locust bean gum, vanilla extract, lemon juice concentrate.

      Endoscopy

      By Soleihey · Posted

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.
