About Dr. H.  

Dr. John Howard is a gastroenterologist (a big word for a "gut-doctor") who specializes in gut problems in children. 

He tells his patients he went to grade 25!  He trained as an "adult" gastroenterologist but for the last 20 years, has seen children more and more in his practice.  

He also found that if you can figure out a way to explain a problem to a five year old, you can explain it to an adult!  Five years ago, he decided to switch from adults to kids and he loves it.  He has spent much of his time developing and publishing books for the patients in his practice and finally decided to share them with everyone on this website.
