San Francisco Celiac Specialists?

I recently moved to San Francisco from New York and I'm trying to find a good celiac doctor and nutrionist in the area. I know about the Celiac Clinic at Stanford, but I don't have a car and the thought of actually renting a car and taking most of the day off of work just to visit the doctor is too much! Can anyone recommend someone in the city? I'm looking for a GI doctor and also a rheumatologist.

Thanks for the advice!

If no one has a doctor that they recommend, it may help to contact local support groups for ideas.

Dr Gary Grey is supose to be one of the best in the country. He is down at Stanford-- I havent seen him yet but am recently diagnosed and have been sent to him! Any luck on the nurtionist? I still need one.

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Healthforme, No prescription needed for thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).  They are available over the counter.   Thiamine Mononitrate is not recommended because the body doesn't absorb or utilize it well.

      Help with genetic testing

      HLA-DQ2 is NOT a continuum 2.01 to 2.99, but I don’t understand HLA genetics well enough to explain it further.  It is not just one gene that is either this or that.

      Help with genetic testing

      By trents · Posted

      Okay, I'm taking a guess here. We are used to hearing in layman terms that having either the HLA-DQ2 or the HLA-DQ8 gene, either heterozygous or homozygous, presents the possibility of developing active celiac disease. So, I'm guessing that the HLA-DQ2 gene is actually a range of variants (2.01-2.99) with HLA-DQ 2.5 being in the centerpiece of the range. I'm also guessing that "permissive" is equivalent to "possessing the possibility" to develop active celiac disease and does not address the issue of hetero vs. homozygus per se. But the fact that 2.01,2.01 is a couplet may indicated homozygousity? All wild guesses.

      I received the results that my child has the genes for celiac disease (she is still undergoing testing and it has been complicated). Can someone explain if this is homozygous HLA DQ 2.5 or not? The interpretation just says permissive for celiac disease. Thank you! DQ Alpha 1  05:01, 5 DQ Beta 1 02:01, 02:01 DQ serologic equivalent 2,2
