Celiac Specialist In Colorado

[Blu-1]

Hello,

 

I need to see a doctor who specializes in Celiac post-diagnosis care. Someone who knows what to test for in terms of deficiencies and other food allergies. Gastroenterologists tend to be more focused on diagnosing Celiac and then prescribing a gluten free diet as the after diagnosis treatment, which isn't enough in my case. My doctor isn't comfortable following up on my chipped teeth and broken bone, muscles strains, etc., as signs of deficiencies. It would be nice if I could see an MD who specializes in Celiac. Does anyone in Colorado, particularly in the Boulder-Denver area, know of a doctor who is familiar with the complexities that can arise post diagnosis on a gluten free diet?

 

Thank you everyone.

That's a tough one. I'm in Colorado and don't know of someone like that. You could ask your Dr to test you for deficiencies...D3, B12, iron, etc. 99% of what I've learned post diagnosis has come from this site, doing my own research and lots of reading. No Dr has been able to help other than order blood work that I specifically asked for.

If you do find a Dr like this, please do share!
