Gastroenterologist: A gastroenterologist is best qualified to evaluate you. Your symptoms could be due to gluten sensitivity(celiac disease) or gluten intolerance. Pancreatic insufficiency and chronic liver disease are possible causes. Irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel disease usually don't cause fatty or greasy stools. The gastroenterologist will order appropriate tests in order to make a diagnosis.
