I hope I have not made any back lashes toward him as that was not my intent..... he even joked with me in how important my treatment is and he'd help me get it.. Bless him..

Kathy , I had a similar experience with Dr Kirkpatrick in Tampa , very competent and understanding of the RSD battle we face . After my evaluation we had a very open and to the point conversation of the treatment costs (both out patient and coma) , as there was not a lot of reason to go down that path if it was not going to be affordable . I found it very refreshing to find someone who understood RSD so well , he offered some good advice and his office even sent me a refund for the cost of the consult several weeks later ... So to that point money does play a role in the patients that are afforded treatment but understandably so in my opinion . Hope all are having a good day and take care !
