Hi Tiki, I live at the Jersey Shore and I go to Shore Gastro in Oakhurst. She was good at diagnosing it. But I am still having trouble. Feel nauseous ALL the time. I had more blood and ultrasound done by them and that was normal. So she put me on prilosec, which I have since stopped. I am to go back in Novemeber about the nausea. I am actually trying to get an appointment with the celiac desease center at Columbia Univers in NYC, but they havent returned my call.

I have the best doctor in Princeton NJ if you are willing to travel there. Private message me if you would like me to tell you about her more.

Basically she diagnosed me at my first visit, and is always ready and willing to deal with every symptom I have. She speaks about the disease at conferences, researches it and is knowlegable on all of the new research. Let me know!
