Gastrointestinal tract is also prone to allergy!

-Eosinophilic Esophagitis can cause difficulties swallowing, failure to thrive, slow growth, vomiting, refusal to eat. Pediatric gastroenterologist and allergy specialist are working together to figure out the triggers, medical and dietary treatment. 

– food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) can cause symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and lethargy. These symptoms can be severe and may require hospitalization in some cases. FPIES is typically diagnosed based on a child’s clinical history and response to food challenge testing.

– Eczema and blood in the stool is frequently observed in babies with milk protein allergy and responds to milk protein elimination, switching to hypoallergenic amino acid based formula.

– Food sensitivity is a term used to describe a range of adverse reactions to certain foods that are not classified as true food allergies. These reactions can include digestive problems, such as bloating, gas, and diarrhea, as well as other symptoms like headaches, skin rashes, and joint pain.

Unlike food allergies, which involve an immune system reaction to a specific food protein, food sensitivities are thought to be caused by a variety of factors, including enzyme deficiencies, chemical intolerances, and stress on the digestive system.

We can help you with that! When it comes to tummy issues, early diagnosis is the key in a child, adolescent or baby! Early diagnosis and prevention saves lives. An evaluation can create lasting peace of mind and a road to recovery!

WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY
Dr. Treskova took her time getting to know our son's GI situation. She gave practical home remedies along with sound nutritional advise. It took a few months of dedicated work on our end plus continued follow up with the doctor for him to ultimately improve. Thank you Dr. Treskova for hanging in there with us!

Catherine R.

Dr Treskova is incredibly thorough, competent, and kind. She leaves no stone unturned when trying to figure out what is causing your child's GI issues. We really enjoy our visits with her and know my daughters are getting the best care possible. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pediatric gastroenterologist/hepatologist.

Our first visit was very reassuring. It worked out that the initial was a virtual for our situation. Dr. Treskova was that perfect mix of compassionate, factual, and reassuring. She listened and gave helpful feedback. When the appointment ended I felt like we might finally be on the path to get answers for my little one. He is a 6 year old boy on the spectrum with no verbal communication. It can be very difficult to find doctors that understand the level of patience that is needed. I wish I could find this in every specialty.

First appoitment was today with my 7 month old and Dr Treskova is amazing . My son has a very complex health and most importantly a good gastro is very well needed when it comes to the health of the stomach I am truly glad she took my son on due to many complcations he has. Highly recommend.

Quanisha N.

Dr. Treskova comes highly recommended at this time. My son has been struggling with learning challenges for quite some time. Through her dedication and diagnostic testing, we were able to get to the root cause of his gastrointestinal issue. She recommends food based and supplements (holistic approach), in conjunction with medicine, to achieve the highest and safest outcomes. This is so important as a parent of a young one, to be able to treat them safely. Because of Dr. Treskova, for the first time, we feel optimistic our son is on his way to recovery. She also is very patient and takes the time to view and discuss the patient as a whole. Her guidance, knowledge, and commitment are truly amazing. I’m so grateful to be working with her.

My daughter loves Dr Treskova and how she has clearly listened to her, understands her complaints and has given her so many natural ways of handling her Gastro issues. Dr. Treskova communicates one on one with my daughter on a level that my daughter understands. Dr. keeps her explanations simple for her to understand her digestive system health and how the brain , gut and bowels are all interconnected with each other She has been through with asking questions wanting feedback has to what is or has not been working for my daughter. Dr Treskova is professional but most importantly sincerely cares about her young patients. As a parent that is so important and so reassuring that my child is being well taken care of.

Dr Treskova is a very knowledgeable gastroenterologist, who keeps up with the newest treatments protocols and medical updates. Despite the pandemic and being limited to providing virtual exams, she was very thorough in obtaining a medical history (one of the most important part of making the diagnosis) and doing her best to perform the exam. She understands the challenges of being a mother and is very realistic with the goals she sets for children. I truly appreciated the tips that she provided me with to help my kids feel better.
