Abstract

Review of adults with coeliac disease is variable throughout the UK in terms of frequency, expertise, and the specialty of the health professionals undertaking the review. In this article, the author describes a dietitian-led virtual review clinic as a method for monitoring adults with established coeliac disease. Clinical audit of the first 24 months of running this service has shown that 91.7% of invited patients attended blood monitoring and returned a completed questionnaire for dietitian review. Moreover, 80% of patients reported that they prefer to alternate virtual review with face-to-face review annually rather than always attend an annual appointment. A virtual (telephone and postal) review clinic has been shown to be an effective method of reviewing adults with coeliac disease.
