We’re proud to announce that we recently featured in the Express newspaper to provide guidance diagnosing coeliac disease.
The article aimed to raise awareness of coeliac disease, highlighting the alarming finding that only 36 % of people who have the condition have been diagnosed, meaning nearly half a million people are living with the symptoms but don’t know it.
In light of this, our GP and Director, Dr Asiya Maula, was invited to comment on the causes of coeliac disease, and many of its symptoms.
You can read the article here: Leg or arm numbness is a ‘surprising’ symptom of underdiagnosed disease.
On this topic, Dr Maula said:
“The news that there are many people living with undiagnosed coeliac disease is a concern. Its therefore important to help raise awareness of its many symptoms in order to enable people to identify it and take appropriate action to prevent complications arising as a result of undiagnosed disease and optimise overall health.”
