Nutritionist On Long Island?

[Random-Guy]

Hey everyone,

I know there's more than a few Long Islanders here. Do any of you know of a nutritionist who knows celiac really well? I've been gluten-free for a few years, and I thought I had the whole diet down, but I'm having some issues that are making me refocus and reeducate myself. I think a nutritionist can help, but only one who really knows celiac well.

Give me a good referral and I'll buy you a gluten-free pizza

thanks

Hi, Random Guy.

Although I never ended up seeing a nutritionist, I was looking for one when I was first diagnosed. Here are 2 names that were recommended to me:

Cathy Ficalora in North Babylon

Linda Fiverson in Woodbury

I believe both of them have experience with Celiac Disease.

Good Luck!

They had a very good Celiac nutritionist at the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University, whom I saw a few years ago, but she left. I don't know if they have hired a replacement, but it's worth checking out. If they do not have somebody, maybe they could give you a recommendation. Good luck.

I have been to see Linda twice. She is a weight loss counselor who uses the gluten-free diet for her clients to loose weight. She sells great prpackaged meals that are all gluten-free. She has some knowledge of Celiac.

She suffers from colitis herself.
