Integrative Pediatrician in Northern Va area....

[eljomom]

I know I have posted before about LLMD's, but rather than go that route, I am wondering if there is anyone who can recommend a practitioner (M.D.) who can do a complete workup (immune, gut, food sensitivity, etc....) on dd7 before we press on with steroids or even IVIG? I feel like our pandas specialist has a role here, but that we need to address some other things that might be playing a part in all of this first. Rather than go to an I.D. doc, an immunologist, lyme doc, etc....maybe there's one who could cover most of this. I was recommended to try Integrative by another wonderful mom from the forum. I don't want someone that is over the top with ONLY holistic stuff, but someone who sees the use of traditional medicine as well as other stuff. I do wonder if food sensitivities and yeast are tipping the pot, so to speak. Also wonder about the immune side, with dd being sick so frequently when she was younger. We live in Warrenton, VA---about 40 miles west of DC. So Northern VA area, DC, MD.

Thanks!
