kevinS Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Hi all,I suffer from gastroesophageal reflux disease (diagnosed and managed by my ENT in JHB). I have recently moved to Melbourne and my medication (Omeprazole) is going to run out in about a months time. Does anyone know of a competent Gastroenterologist anywhere in Melb - preferably a South African? I fear I may also need to have a gastroscope so a Dr that doesn't mind answering all my questions would be a bonus.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Kevin, you will not get to see an ENT specialist if you do not have a referral from a GP. You would need to see your GP urgently, as you may well have to wait a while to get an appointment with the specialist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonnetjie Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Dr Sue Shepherd and her team specialise in helping people with gastro problems. She is very well known in her field of expertise. I suggest that you call her and ask who she suggests is a good gastroenterologists. http://www.coeliac.com.au/dietitian-appointments.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
