OT: Gastro Doctors

[The Cooterpoot]

Already, let's go ahead and get the obligatory "you're full of ****" out of the way.

I'm unable to find a gastro Dr willing to take me on. I had a guy and got nowhere, so after 5 years, I've tried to find some else and when they get my chart they tell me to find someone else, they can't help me. One said check with UAB or Tulane but couldn't refer me to anyone specifically. Any of you Aholes got any guidance? It's been frustrating.

*I anxiously await the responses*

Have you tried GI Associates in Flowood?

Turned him down They're who said he needs to check with UAB/Tulane. He won't say it but he just about died a few years ago. I've been calling around for him and it's like anything short of basic nobody wants to even consider because they're all so busy with easy stuff.

The idea of dying isn't bad some days! LOL
Especially during football season.
I'm just wondering if anybody else has had problems like this and maybe knows of somebody good that's not just sending in their NP to piss me off. I've told them I'd like to start new.

Hate to hear that. I found this website. This just lists the gastroenterologists in MS.

I hope y'all find someone who'll take his case.

Having called several from Jackson to the coast, it's just been the same thing over and over. I've taken his old *** all over the place but I'm not familiar with process to get in with a university type specialist.

I've been happy with George Catinis out of New Orleans. I've had gastro issues on and off the past 15 years so had several scopes and followups. I'm actually now on a low fiber diet because my system over processes and he was slow to throw medicine at it or want to cut like some docs seem to want to do. https://metrogi.com/george-catinis-metairie-la

I’ll recommend highly Stephen Threadgill in Oxford. Don’t know the other physicians in that group. In limited interactions with him I have been very impressed with his knowledge and his concern for his patients.

I know one of the other physicians in the group, and he’s a nice guy

I use Dr. Goldberg in Greenwood and have been well pleased.

What doctor were you trying to seeing at GI Associates? Has there been a weight loss surgery in the past? I understand that is a common “complication” that some GI docs don’t want to get involved in.

There are some good doctors at GI, so if they are telling you to seek Tulane or UAB, then they must feel like whatever the issue is to severe for them. Supposedly, Dr. Vance at GI is an extremely smart and good dr. If that’s not who you were seeing, maybe try again with him.
