Is Goat's Milk Better for a Cow's Milk Sensitive Toddler?

Hi Moms, My 27-month-old toddler is sensitive to cow's milk and gets eczema and diarrhea when he consumes it. I'm desperate to get him off of Neocate, a specially formulated nondairy "milk", since it is extremely expensive and our insurance stopped covering it a year ago, but have no idea what I can switch him to. I've tried almond milk but he wouldn't drink it and his pediatric GI said rice milk won't give him enough nutrients so now I'm thinking I should try goat's milk. Has anyone had success with goat's milk? I'd eliminate milk...
