Pandas Doctor in Palo Alto

[Santi]

Hello,

 

I contact NIMH about PANDAS doctors in the bay area and I received a call back from someone who works with Dr. Swedo. She gave me the name Dr. Charlotte Hamilton MD @ 900 Welch Rd. in Palo Alto (tel# 650-321-5321). I was told she is a PANDAS expert who worked with Dr. Swedo at NIMH. Has anyone heard of her? Andrea

I googled her. Did they tell you she is a pediatric psychiatrist? I could be very wrong, but I think psychiatrists, whether they "get" PANDAS or not, are limited in their treatment options. But, if she knows enough about PANDAS and can work cooperatively w/ another physicians, it could work out anyway.

She is a child psychiatrist.

Hi Andrea, I just got off the phone with Diana. She strongly recommends Margo Thienemann, as do I, for our PANDAS children. She shares office space with Charlotte, but has more current experience with PANDAS. Her number is 1 650 324 3241. Abby answers her messages. Tell Abby your child has PANDAS, and you will get an appointment right away. Best wishes - Peggy

I plan to see Margo on Tuesday. I am looking forward to it. Thanks to all! Andrea

Fantastic News... Margo can also write lab requests. I would have your entire household strep titers check, ASO and ANTI-DNAse-B. You'll quickly understand if there is a strep problem within the household.

Yay! Don't worry, she is a super nice lady (in addition to knowing much about PANDAS).
