Hi a couple of years ago someone had told me about Dr Chin being at GW in DC. Does anyone know if shes still there and if they have her contact info to make an appt? Or if they know of anybody else in the Maryland/DC area? Im needing to make an appt asap. Thanks!

Is this the Dr. Chin you want?

I'm in MD/DC area too. I tried National Spine and Pain at first. They aren't bad, but weren't very knowledgeable/helpful about all the treatment options I wanted to try. If you want a doctor who won't be judgy about pain pills and other meds, they are great. I had a few spinal injections there too and they took good care of me during. When their treatments didn't work for me I left.

I have been going to a place called NAVA, which has a few locations in the area. It's a functional medicine place that doesn't take insurance. They do really comprehensive tests (they were the first docs to actually do a test that didn't come out as "perfectly fine", gluten and casein intolerance). They approach treatment from a natural perspective, so this is where you go to get quality supplements, diet help, massage, hyperbaric oxygen, acupuncture, etc.

I haven't found one doctor that I truly feel like can help me. I may try NIH at some point, because they have offices around here too.

I hope you find something good!
