I was on the Clan Thompson Celiac Website and they had a few Docs listed under Ask the Doctor...

And this one was from Atlanta...Other than what is below I don't know of him personally...

Dr. Jeffery Lewis received his undergraduate degree from Emory and graduated from Wake Forest University Medical School in 1989. From 1992-95 he was a fellow in gastroenterology at Harvard Medical School while training at Children's Hospital of Boston and the Massachusetts General Hospital - two of the highest rated teaching hospitals in the world. He stayed an additional year as a faculty member at Harvard in order to further enhance his research and clinical skills before returning to his native city of Atlanta, Georgia in 1996. He has been with the Children's Center for Digestive Healthcare, LLC since its inception in 1999.

Dr. Lewis has a special interest in a variety of pediatric gastrointestinal disorders, including celiac disease. His projects have examined treatment of Hepatitis B, acid reflux, and autism. He currently is conducting research on eosinophilic esophagitis and the role of reflux in severe asthma. He has received private and National Institutes of Health funding for his work and has presented his research at national conferences and published in high quality medical journals.

Dr. Lewis founded the only chapter of R.O.C.K. - Raising Our Celiac Kids - in Georgia. After just two years, there are almost a hundred families in the Georgia chapter. To learn more, send an email to celiacgroup@ccdhc.org.

He is a fellow of The American Academy of Pediatrics and has served on several committees. Dr. Lewis has also served on a number of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Committees and is very active in the community as an advocate for children's health. He is currently the chief of gastroenterology for Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite. He is an active member of the North American Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition and is board certified in pediatrics and gastroenterology. When he's not hard at work for his patients or research, he likes to travel, play baseball or soccer with his kids, and spend time with his wife.

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
