Does anyone know the website for checking out doctors' histories, such as malpractice suits, disciplinary actions, etc? I am in the process of finding my son a doctor and want to be careful. Thanks.

Just type in the name of a doctor and you should get something with google. Everything I've seen is a pay service.

Usually the medical societies in each state have records of this. or your state dept of Dr. licensing has these records which should be public free information.

A medical Society is organized by County, so you'd call information as ask for the "_____ County Medical Society's phone number."

I called mine and they provided me with a NJ only website which has all NJ doctors info on it.

I've tried all of the above: county medical society, state licensing board, Google search on dr name and AMA website. No help found. :unsure:

No,I had to call "Information" for the medical society's phone number. Then called the Union County (I live in Union County) Medical Society and ask them for the background info. Surprisingly they told me about a NJ State run website for my state only which has the Dr. info on it. I guess I could have gone to NJ.gov to find it myself but I never thought of it.

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.
