CFS Doctors or Hospital in New York City (or Westchester) ?

[Roger]

I want to evaluate myself for CFS, does anyone know a experienced Doctor or Hospital in New York City (or Westchester)region.

Roger--There are several doctors I have worked with for CFS. I haven't had any success yet but I am determined to find success. Some names of doctors who specialize in it are: Susan Levine in Manhattan, Leo Galland in NYC and Benjamin Natelson in NJ. Hope this helps--

I have seen Dr Levine for several years with no improvement. In addition, most of these dr's do not accept insurance assignments which makes things even worse. Does anyone know of a CFS dr in nyc who accepts insurance?

Roger--

Go see Dr Enlander. Believe me, he is excellent, and in Manhattan.

I, too, am looking for a really good CFS doctor in Northern NJ or NY CITY. I have had CFS for 6 years now and have already been to Dr. Susan Levine for 6 years and have really not gotten any better. I also have been to Dr. Podell and Dr. Majid Ali. Any other recommendations? I'm starting to lose hope! And I've tried so many things and have taken so many tests and IV vit drips!! thank you, Amanda

Does anyone know a Dr. or clinic in NYC who could diagnose Chronic Fatigue who takes Medicaid?

So far the only Medicaid-accessible treatment I've found is the OMT clinic at St. Barnabas Hosp in the Bronx but they dont diagnose or fill out forms for Social Security.

He has a 1 month waiting list. Can get in to see Dr. Levine much quicker but am afraid she isn't as good as Dr. Elander--is he really that much better

I have been going to Dr. Levine for 6 years now and I really think she is very good and tries really hard to help. I would recommend her. Good Luck!

I recently started working with Dr. Levine. She is affordable, available and knows how to diagnose CFS. I would highly recommend her.

Still need someone who takes medicaid. Levine, Enlander and an Osteopath who's name I forget do not accept medicaid and "affordable" is relative...not affordable if you're poor.
