Gastroenterologist: You may have gluten intolerance or sensitivity and may not be absorbing food properly. Overactive thyroid and diabetes are other conditions that can make it difficult to gain weight or can cause weight loss. A gastroenterologist can evaluate,advise and treat you and will order the appropriate tests.
