Its frustrating finding doctors that not only know that POTS exist but also treat it as a real condition, and we know that it very much is.
If you know of good doctors, or horrible doctors to stay away from please list the following:
- Name of the doctor.
- Address and State and hospital.
- What you thought set them apart from other doctor's.
- Link to websites (if possible).

Hi, THank you and congrats for setting up this forum. I have pandysautonomia, which has included POTS-like symptoms. I've been seeing Dr Safwan Jaradeh at Stanford Medical Center, CA for two years, as soon as I heard he had moved here from Wisconsin. He is very knowledgeable about dysautonomias and is expanding his Autonomic Disorders clinic, bringing in specialists from related fields. Has he helped me? Well, it is wonderful to have someone willing to go the extra mile to investigate, test and experiment. Like all doctors treating these conditions, he ends up going after the symptoms as they pop up in their cyclical way. But he and his wonderful nurse, Cynthia Feakins, are empathetic, caring, full of humor and it's just fantastic to have someone knowledgeable to talk with. While I sometimes feel like a guinea pig, I know that just by going to see Dr Jaradeh I'm adding to the database of knowledge that may help future dysautonomia patients. med.stanford.edu/profiles/neurology/safwan-jaradeh |
