I agree with you about all GI practices needing to have nutritionists. Mine is a very large organization and doesn’t Have anyone. My impression is that the docs are now focused on procedures like colonoscopies and endoscopies where the $$ is best and they are not too interested in counseling their patients about ongoing problems. I’ve been going to the same GI for 20 years and have seen this change firsthand.

My first gastroenterologist was with a large organization and I had the same experience - all they wanted to do was repeat colonoscopies and upper endoscopies, also for the $ I believe. They didn't even do any other testing. I finally went up to Mayo where I
was diagnosed with fm. When I got home, I switched to a gastroenterologist at the local university medical center.
