Hi,
My adult daughter has Crohn's disease and needs a GI doctor. She lives on the west side of Los Angeles. Any and all suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.

If you click the link below, it will direct you a list of GI specialists who specialize in Crohn's and Colitis.

You just need to put in your zip code and look up the doctor's background. Sometimes it could take weeks or even months before your daughter is able to see a Crohn's specialist for the 1st time as a new patient.

What insurance does she have? I work as well as see my GI doctor at Cedars-Sinai. They have an Inflammatory Bowel Disease center with a ton of very qualified doctors. I see Dr. Raena Olsen and she is wonderful!

I appreciate the help so far. The GI can be anywhere in the Los Angeles area.

I believe NotSoSicklyGirl in the UC forum lives in LA (now has a j-pouch but saw a few GIs there). I'd reach out to her. https://www.healingwell.com/community/profile.aspx?f=38&p=74023
