I was looking for a doctor familiar with MCAD, including MCAS, for a friend in Florida so I talked to some ladies on a facebook support group.

Quotes from my personal facebook messages with a lady:

"There's Dr. Sami Nallamshetty in Tampa and Wesley Chapel. She's an allergist who studied with Dr. Castells in Boston so is up on mast cell disease. I've seen here once and liked her but haven't continued seeing her as it was too far for me to travel."

"I see Dr. Brett Stanaland in Naples.  His associate is Dr. Ron Purcell.  Both are familiar with MCAD and Mastocytosis."

"They all three consult with Dr. Castells and Dr. Stanaland has consulted with Dr. Afrin for me also.  They aren't experts but know enough to be able to get things going.  They still want to refer to Boston if at all possible though."

Another lady recommended Dr. Sami Nallamshetty to me too but didn't go into any details.

There's also Dr. Glover in Gainesville.

Quote from another lady:
"My GI diagnosed me with the mast cell disorder she specialize in it.. She is at Shands in Gainsville florida. her name is Sarah Glover she is amazing.. very smart and loving person.."

Dr. Glover also has mast cell activation syndrome listed as her clinical interests on her profile and has co-published on it. So I'm thinking she may be the best doctor near you for GI issues from MCAD.

So not up on Dr. Afrin's or Dr. Castells level but may be good enough for many people.
