My wonderful hemotoligist, Dr Sanford Kempin, retired several years ago and I have yet to find a hemo who has clue one about APLS.
Does anyone see a hemo in NYC who understands the syndrome? By chance is there one at Weill Cornell or NYU?
The Dr who replaced Dr Hughes, Dr Cromwell, didn't come close to his caring, informed, always learning approach.
Recommendations are welcome.
I am sure you will get some recommendations soon, as many from the USA on here, as you know. Keep well. MaryF
I’m also looking for a hematologist in NYC. ( preferably in the financial district for now - near 22nd Dutch street as this is my hub when I’m in the city.
Will be setting myself up with a GP/ internist within walking distance - I can’t remember his name. ( He’s the GP listed on the Swiss consulate general website- by happenstance).
If you find a good one- do let us know. Weil is associated with Dr Erkan so I’m sure there will be a good hematology department associated with Weil Cornell. That might be closer to where you are located.
Should I go for 2nd opinion?
How many in your family have APS and/or other autoimmune issues?
How many of us have been bouncing around between specialists to get a firm diagnosis?
Costs of private referrals?
Hughes and Fibromyalgia
