How many of you or your kid actually have an annual check up with a Gastro Dr vs a Nurse led 'Coeliac' clinic?

Have you noticed a difference if you have switched hospitals ?

*If you don't have a check up pls don't comment we have many other threads for that topic discussion just search Coeliac Check UP' And make sure you push your GP for an annual check up.

I have an annual check up with my dietitian. She tries to be helpful, but as I`m asymptomatic she can`t help much. I ask her q`s and she says she`ll ask the consultant to see me. He`s not that interested and tries to fob me off with letters (no appts.) and comments like "well some coeliacs react this way or that. Local GP is OK, but I know more about the disease than he does!

2 yearly via gastro.

We have annual check up with dr, 1st year was rubbish the dr didn't really seem to care, this year we had a different dr and they were brilliant did all the bloods etc and seem to care about our 4 year old. I have to say we don't bother with the dietician any more as at the 1st visit when we didn't know anything all our questions were met with ask coeliac UK so I said we would ask for an appointment if we needed it but don't think I will.
