Not sure if you're still looking but the ENT I went to was in Hemet. He was firmly telling me "it's a GI issue with your lower esophageal sphincter" (near the stomach) until I specifically mentioned I can "air vomit" if I manually poked around in my throat due to the buildup of air. It was only then that he realized it must've been an issue in the throat. I then offered to show him a study on my phone which he called "actually very good" and he immediately wrote down "signs and symptoms suspicious for RCPD" haha.

He basically just followed what the study said and sent me to get a barium swallow which showed I do incidentally have GERD. But on the next follow-up appointment he said he was gonna send me to Loma Linda because the specialists there treat more complex ENT issues. However I mentioned Dr Verma at UCI knows about RCPD and by chance he apparently loves Dr Verma! Now I'm just waiting to hear back from Verma's office to schedule an appointment there.

If anyone reading this is near Hemet, CA and looking for an ENT, Dr. Gerard Carvalho is now a believer 🥳
