There are wonderful GI doctors who specialize in celiac disease at Mayo Clinic in Rochester. Drive an hour, it'd be worth it. One of the leading researchers in the field is located there. Also, there is a Gluten-Free Cupboard grocery store and a Good Food Store in Rochester, both have a wide variety of gluten-free products.

I ditto the suggestion of Mayo because they have a renowned specialist there. I think his name is Dr. Murray At the very least, you could call and ask them for a referral to a good celiac doctor in the cities. Oh - If you do go to Rochester, be sure and check out that Gluten Free Cupboard the previous poster mentioned. They are just a little teeny store, but they have absolutely everything.

Not a celiac specialist, but my GP is great if you're looking for a yearly doc who won't give you the evil eye when you mention you have celiac and will know what to look for. I go to Ronda Stellar at the Shoreview Medical Clinic. She says whenever she gets someone who's having trouble getting pregnant, she'll test them for celiac. She's also been to several talks about it so she' pretty knowledgeable and realizes there's more to it than the stereotypical symptoms.

This is not about a doc but if you live in the twin cities, there is a great grocery store called Fresh and Natural. There is one in Shorview and one in Bloomingtom. They have tons of gluten-free foods, seminars, even cooking class. It puts both Trader Joe's and Whole Foods to shame. Also there are two great gluten-free bakeries in Mnpls and Eagan. Both have foods at Fresh and Natural!!!!

MN Gastroenterologists is a group of doctors that practice around the Twin Cities. I am new to Celiac but when in the hospital, this group saw me and are the ones who recommended the endoscopy when I did not have symptoms typical of Celiac. Don't yet know how good they are but am also thinking of driving down to Mayo and having them take a look at everything as a second opinion. Good luck.

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system
