Unfortunately, yes and I wouldn’t recommend anyone get near that place with a 10 foot poll. Dr K is sadly driven only by your insurance. They play a lot of games with in-network vs out of network billing which ended up being really annoying to me the patient. Besides that, he’s actually not a very good doctor. He clearly forgets his patients and doesn’t want to be there or have the time to devote to us. I saw the other GIs in the group and I found the female GI doctor to be incredibly dismissive and condescending. She seemed over-worked and unhappy and frankly it was clear had no interest in helping me. MA took my blood and begged for me to leave positive reviews which is apparently how they get them. They just play marketing games. Also, look up the NPR article about how Dr K billed an insurance for cultures. The whole thing seems fishy and not kosher and you get the vibe that no one wants to be there or wants to help the patients. So yeah, I would find another celiac specialist!

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
