Guest guest Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 ....thought I'd keep those who are interested in the loop...Does anyone know about M. Man, MD (SF) Internal Medicine, Gastroenterology?I went to him for my first celiac test back in 2001. He wasn't very nice then, and tried to avoid giving me this test in the first place. Then wasn't convinced it was CD because the test result was so low. Just wondering if anyone else has met with him recently - and perhaps he's changed his "attitude" since then about Celiac.I visited my primary doctor (I've had for 11 years), Hilbert (SF), she's great. She agreed that a biopsy might be the right thing to do, since Dr. Man only tested for antibodies back in '01, and there's been no follow-up since then, other than my gluten-free diet for 7-8 years. That enough time has passed with the diet, it would be good to see how I'm recovering, and that if Dr. Man isn't willing to do this test, we can get a second opinion with another doctor...any recommendations for different Dr. in SF under HMO Blue Cross?Also, back in May '09 we tested for pre-diabetes, electrolytes, the thyroid, the liver, and iron deficiency, etc...all tests came back fine.She's also sending me to a Dietitian to ensure I'm getting all the right nutrients, and also because I'm having such a difficult time loosing weight post baby (and it's been 2 years!)
