ARCHIVED I Am Drowning And Need Some Advice
mhansen replied to mhansen's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

I have had very similar experiences with Doctor visits but I had a really positive experience with a local dietician here in Portland Oregon. Her name is Niki Strealy, RD LD and she works for Providence Portland Medical center. She...
