Pediatric Gi In Pittsburgh (Or Anywhere In Wv, Pa, Va)

I'm looking for a second opinion since our pedi GI will only further discuss Celiac and way ahead if we agree to biopsy testing. We're in WV, but currently travel to Pittsburgh and are willing to travel to see a good pediatric GI who may give us more options. Thanks!

You could try Dr Anthony Colatrella 412-232-8104

Dr. Ernest Stanley 412-533-3077

another option is to call children's hospital in Pittsburgh & ask for a referral.....

I'm not sure if either doc does children anymore....but it is worth a phone call & if they don't maybe they can give you a name .....

I'm not sure where you are in WV. I'm in the Eastern Panhandle. My little guy sees Dr. Benny Kernzer at Children's National. We love him. He sees patients at the outpatient clinics in the NoVa and Rockville, MD area.

ETA: Part of the reason we love him is that he is very conservative and is not in a rush to do procedures.

      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.
