Default Please ! Who is best in Boston area ?

I am suffering with RSD and I am desperate to find a medical professional who can offer some help in the Boston area. In my search I came across this web site (thank you). I noticed a similar posting to mine from 2011 but alas, I can't find it again so here is a new request. I need suggestions of qualified RSD specialists in the Boston or RI area. I am now 6 months into this intense pain, have seen, a dozen drs., and am no better off today than I was 6 months ago. No one seems qualified to help me get ANY relief . Your suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.

I've seen many doctors over the past two years. Some with more success than others. I just started seeing Dr. Carinci at MGH and I found him to be knowledgeable and kind. Again I'm new to him, but found he listened to me and was up to date with CRPS.

What kind of doctor are you looking for- pain management, neurology, etc? Maybe I can give you some other suggestions. What kind of therapies have you tried? A little more info on your situation would be helpful.

I wish I lived close enough to see this doctor.

The RSDSA channel on Youtube has a couple videos of this doctor doing presentations about RSD. They are long, but might be helpful.
