Hi. I'm new to this forum, and this is my first response! I'm now looking for an RSD specialist and a pelvic pain management specialist in southern CA, closer to San Diego than LA.

When I lived on the east coast I went to Dr. Robert Knowbler. He is a wonderful RSD (and MS) specialist. I saw him for years, even though he was 3 hours away.

Good luck!

Swanny, the only doctor that specializes that I know of is Michael Stanton-Hicks, and he's semi retired, he just does research now. He was wonderful, and my life isn't the same without him. I am looking for a new doctor too. It's been an absolute nightmare.

I do know of a doctor in Oklahoma, he was the first to diagnose me.

Some in your area travel to USC to see Dr. Richeimer. http://www.helpforpain.com/

There are also doctors at UCI that are supposed to be very good--Dr. Soloman Liao has been mentioned here on NT. http://www.ucirvinehealth.org/find-a.../solomon-liao/

And lastly, there is also Dr. Nancy Sajben in La Jolla. She has been a big advocate of low dose Naltrexone. I don't believe she takes insurance though. http://painsandiego.com/

Dr. Peter Moskovitz is an RSD specialist and sits on the board of the RSDSA website. He's amazing, but he is retiring in the near future.
