Can anyone recommend a good pediatric gastroenterologist in the DC area?

I don't remember the name of the one we used, she wasn't particularly impressive anyway. I just want to add that my DD had what seemed like severe gastro issues. Pain so severe she would double over. After the ped gastro recommended an endoscopy, I decided to go another route and had her tested for allergies. Turned about to be a food intolerance and not a true allergy, but it was enough to upset her stomach in a major way. On a personal note, I had many years of gastro pain as well. Doctor after doctor, test after test. I was unable to eat a full meal for years. Only to later find out that I have an allergy to soy, which I was drinking daily at the time. I also have a gluten and coconut intolerance.

Please ignore all of this if you DC has a known gastro type dx.
