<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I feel bad. I should've summarized this months ago. I'm finally catching up. I had asked for suggestions for a gastroenterologist in San Diego. Below is my summary. Thank you for those who helped. Sidona/Calif. 1) I have a wonderful Gastro DR. His name is Dr. Kurtz. His office is near the tri-city hospital. Phone # is 760-724-8782. He is a wonderful human being and a great Dr. Good luck, Selma Goldman 2) The best recommendation I can offer for a local gastroenterologist is Dr. Martin Kagnoff, Professor of Medicine and Director of the Laboratory of Mucosal Immunology at UCSD. His major focus is on the molecular and cellular pathophysiology of Celiac disease. He is one of the major players in the field. Best regards.
