Hi,
I am trying desperately to find a quality care, aggressive approach Dr/Pain Management Clinic for my husband who has RSDS...we live on Long Island, NY (Holbrook area) ....it is now spreading to his heart, etc. and he is in the hospital right now....the Hospital has no one to refer him to (?) so please, if you know of any truly good, "people centered" Drs. who KNOW RSDS, please give me their information. We would even be willing to go to NYC if need be. The Dr. he had did NOT do the right thing, so we have to find another one and fast. We would be SO grateful........Thank you kindly. God bless all of you. |

Hello,
I know there is a Dr. Schwartzman in Philadelphia, PA - I've read great things about him - he often sends patients to Germany for ketamine treatments. I wish you and your husband luck, terry |
