Monday, August 1, 2016 on the Doctor Ira Breite Gastroenterology and Internal Medicine Show on SiriusXM 110: Doctor Radio


We are starting off the hazy days of August with a very digestive oriented show.  Starting with Columbia University Medical Center's Armin Alaedini, PhD, who has an appointment in the institute of Human Nutrition and is a member of the Celiac Disease Center.  Dr. Alaedini will be talking about his latest research on wheat sensitivity in non-celiac disease patients.

After this we are going to have wide open phones, gastroenterology update, Doctor's Ira's Three Times the Charm Board Review and more.  We will end the show, as usual, with "Ask Doctor Ira," where you can ask me any question on any medical topic at all: anything you forgot to ask you doctor ask me!  Give us a call at 1-877-NYU-DOCS or tweet me @doctorira!
