Can anyone suggest a celiac-understanding primary care physician in the Phoenix area? I would especially be interested in one who is very informed about all the other problems associated with the disease, or which celiac can cause or irritate....

Thank you!

Sheesh, I wish I could find one. I have only used alternative support. If I go to the doctor they are very demeaning. No one has ever been willing to help. I have gone to a few alternative places. Alternative places have great information but nothing you cannot find online and I end up spending a fortune on suppliments. I love shopping at Sprouts. They used to have a Celiac group that met. You might want to see if you have a Sprouts near you, maybe you can see if they have a posting there where people with celiac meet and maybe someone in the group has a great doctor. I have met so many gals who gluten intollerent in the gluten free isle in the store. I need to start asking who they go to. Maybe do celiac specialists in AZ online search and start from there. I have been to over 50 doctors in AZ and I still have had no help. Goodluck to you...

      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/
