PANDAS

[StillHopeful]

Can anyone recommend a doctor in the NE who treats PANDAS with antibiotics? Any information would be very helpful. Thank you.

check out the helpful information thread at the top of the forum posts-- there is a link to doctors by state there, I believe.

Best Wishes!

Thank you very much. I checked out the thread but not much listed for NY. Anyone heard of Dr. Stanley Boris (allergist & DAN dr) in Woodbury, NY?

I am sending you a PM with a couple of ideas in Manhattan and Brooklyn

I'm on Long Island but we travel to Dr. B in CT. It's only a 30 minute drive after you cross the Throgs Neck.

 

I've heard of Dr. Boris, they treat PANDAS along with Autism. I called their office and they do take some insurance through the allergy side of their practice. We haven't made an appointment with them yet. We may as I've heard he does a lot of work with diet.

Thanks Erin3. I am going to go to our ped. today to test for strep and see what he thinks about PANDAS and starting an antibiotic treatment. I think I know the answer. (not proven/won't perscribe). If so, I am going to call Boris and see if he treats with antibiotics. I am not interested in checking for allergies/diet as a first step because I think that my son needs antibiotics. Thanks again.
