Any Doctor That Can Be Recommended In Sweden?

I realize that apparently it is easier to find a good celiac/gluten intolerance doctor in the USA than in Sweden (not to mention using Enterolab...I donīt think I want to send a sample from Europe to the USA as I need to declare it for the carrier....wink.gif)

So, does anyone know a good knowledgeable doctor in Sweden? My doctor at the local health center is nice and tries to be helpful (he suspects celiac disease already and we have just sent off blood samples), but in case they come back negative I want to be prepared and find a doctor, who knows that blood samples arenīt that conclusive (my current doctor says one can find all celiacs by blood samples, and then you just need a gastroscopy w biopsies to confirm).

I actually think it's probably easier to find a celiac knowledgeable doctor in Sweden than it is in the US... I don't know how the Swedish health system works, but can you ask to be referred to a gastrointestinal specialist? There must be some kind of a Swedish society for celiacs I think and they would probably know who the most knowledgeable people are.
