💉Our very own CRNA, Mike, was so proud of getting his flu shot that he was gifted an award 🏆, and we love the enthusiasm!

Flu season is here, and getting your annual flu vaccine is one of the best ways to protect yourself and those around you.

At Frederick Gastroenterology Associates, we’re rolling up our sleeves to help keep our community healthy.

💙 Have you gotten your flu shot yet?

Did you know Maryland has a law protecting patients who urgently need restroom access? 🚻

While attending the American College of Gastroenterology’s annual conference in Nashville, Dr. Natasha Kamal learned more about Ally’s Law (the Restroom Access Act).

This law helps protect patients with Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and other medical conditions who may need urgent access to a restroom when public facilities aren’t available.

Many patients don’t realize these protections exist!

💙 Maryland Restroom Access Card: Patients with qualifying conditions can obtain an official identification card through the Maryland Department of Health with certification from their healthcare provider.

💙 Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation: Offers a free “I Can’t Wait” card to help patients communicate their needs. Maryland’s official card is needed to invoke protections under state law.

📱 We Can’t Wait App: Helps patients locate accessible restrooms.

At Frederick Gastroenterology Associates, we believe exceptional GI care goes beyond treating disease. It’s also about helping our patients live with dignity, confidence, and a better quality of life. 💙

This National Eosinophilic Esophagitis Awareness Week, Dr.Natasha Kamal is helping spread awareness about this chronic inflammatory condition of the esophagus. EoE occurs when eosinophils — a type of white blood cell often associated with allergies — build up in the esophagus and lead to inflammation and swallowing problems.

EoE can affect both children and adults, and symptoms may include:
• Trouble swallowing
• Food impactions (“food getting stuck”)
• Chest discomfort or reflux symptoms
• Feeding difficulties in children
• Abdominal pain or vomiting

Diagnosis typically involves an upper endoscopy with biopsies, and treatment may include dietary changes, acid suppression, or newer targeted therapies.

Awareness matters because many people live with symptoms for years before receiving a diagnosis.
