Leading Physicians From PANDAS Network - Rao or Russell

[texanmom]

I posted recently describing where we are at with my daughter and beginning to look into PANDAS. From the pandasnetwork website, http://pandasnetwork.org/resources/providers/

there are two Texas 'leading' doctors.

 

From searching the forum, I've seen several positive comments about Dr. Rao. Anyone seen Dr. Russell? It looks like Russell takes Blue Cross Blue Shield and Rao doesn't. I understand at some point that we may need to see specialists out of pocket. However, if a "leading physician" does take our insurance, I'd prefer to start there. Thoughts?

We see Dr. Rao and have BCBS. You are correct he does not take that now so we file with our insurance ourselves. If you want any information about Dr. Rao during your research, feel free to send me a PM. Dr. Rao is "only" a bit over an hour from us, so we choose him.
