Triangle Gluten Free Group

presents

Celiac Disease in the USA:
Are We Different or Merely Indifferent?

Ivor Hill, MD
Pediatric Gastroenterologist
Wake Forest University Medical Center

Friday, November 5th, 1999 at 7:30pm
The Hedrick Building, Friday Center Drive, Hwy 54, Chapel HIll

In this talk, Dr. Hill will look at the difference between the European
experience with Celiac Disease and what is perceived in the USA.  He will
describe the various ways in which celiac disease can present, in an effort
to explain why the condition may be misdiagnosed in the USA.  He will also
present some data from a study recently completed by his group, which suggest
that perhaps there is no difference in prevalence between the USA and Europe.

Local physicians, nurse practitioners and nutritionists are welcome.

drink, or some ice, or something yummy to spread on GF  bread.  Please call
