I'm not sure if it's an option for either of you but Mayo Clinic does have a Motility Clinic. Here's a link - https://www.mayoclinic.org/departments-centers/motility-clinic/overview/ovc-20357787.

Thank you for the information. I'm currently trying to get in for an appointment at Mayo. Since I would be traveling from the West to the East coast, I would prefer to choose my doctor vs being assigned one through the Motility Clinic (if indeed that is how it works). Any suggestions?
