Coeliac Disease Doctors in Malta
Coeliac disease is an autoimmune condition triggered by gluten ingestion that damages the small intestinal lining, causing malabsorption, diarrhoea, bloating, and fatigue. Gastroenterologists diagnose coeliac disease through blood tests for specific antibodies and small bowel biopsy, and advise on strict lifelong adherence to a gluten-free diet. Follow-up with a gastroenterologist and dietitian ensures nutritional adequacy and monitors for complications.
