>should I

put an info pack of dr goldbergs materials together and give to my

pediatrician and other docs involved with his care? then hope for a

response? or how did you guys get cooperation with local docs<

Hi...definitely put a materials packet together and insist the docs read them.

Make sure Dr. Goldberg's telephone number and website is in the packet and

direct the doctors to contact him if they have any questions. BE PUSHY about

this. Don't let up until they read the materials and okay the tests. That's

what I had to do...and my son's pediatrician actually KNOWS Dr. Goldberg! When

I requested that they send 's records to Dr. Goldberg, 's doctor

called me up to " warn " me that Dr. Goldberg's theories " aren't exactly accepted "

by the mainstream medical community and that he didn't want us to do anything

that might be unnessary or possibly harm . Although he did acknowledge

that, as a parent himself, he totally understood why we were doing what we were

doing. I told him that I had read Dr. Goldberg's materials extensively and was

confident that he there was nothing in the protocol that was unduly dangerous.

He talked to Dr. Goldberg and okayed the tests.

I hope that will help..

Hello,

I myself had that same problem with our pediatrician. We were recommend to go

to Dr. Golonka with Kids in the Sun. I called there the begining of Sept. and

the earliest they had was the beginning of Nov. So he is very busy. His number

is 440-526-8222. Good Luck

I dont know where exactly you live but there is a pedi here in Westlake

area..her name is Amy Carruthers. Besides her being a fabulous ped. she has a

son with autism. YOu may get this response from someone else as well. She seems

to be a magnet for families with children on the spectrum. Good luck!

We see Dr. Wexberg at the Cleveland Clinic

Beachwood. I really like his personality and he is

very good about letting me " do my thing " with Dr.

DeMio and the biomedical stuff. He is also ok with my

choice not to vaccinate further. (I told him my

position right off the bat at the initial interview).

He did want me to add to whatever blood work that we

were doing the Measles titers just to ease his mind

and both of my kids were in the OK range without the

last boosters (go figure!!) Depending on your

insurance, I also liked Dr. Hellerstein at

Green Rd. Pediatrics. Her personality and views are

much like Wexberg's (IMO), but we had to switch

because of our insurance. There is one doc at her

office that I do not like and if you have a sick child

you pretty much have to take who you get. That's the

only problem. There are a few east side dr.'s that I

would steer clear of---but you can email me offline (I

try not to openly bad mouth people if I can!!!)

hi,

yes, arthur knows a tremendous amount about asd,add, adhd and is not big on just giving out meds. he also spends a great deal of time talking w/parents and is extremely caring.

i am a high school friend of beth hellerstein and really love her manner and way w/the children. we have been seeing her since my boys were born...before noah was diagnosed at about 18 months. she is also very supportive of our decision not to vaccinate ...at least yet. i am not certain of arthur lavin's position on this. phil demio is a must on your team of doctors in conjunction w/a primary care dr.

good luck,

all the best,

shari

Thank you...You seem to be a loyal but honest person. I do not like to bad mouth people either...everyone has character defects...but it is not up to me to change or judge another human.

Hi -

Although I have not been to him, 3 separate parents of autistic children have recommended Dr. on to me. I have not looked him up yet, so I don't have his info., but I know that he is in Avon Lake (I believe on Rte. 83 right off I-90) and is with the Cleveland Clinic.

If you go to him, let me know how you like him as I am thinking of switching to him.

Thanks.

Yes, that's what I mean, thanks. We have run into a problem. Anytime she gets oral antibiotics, which is not often, just twice in the last two years, first Zithromax and then Amoxicillin, she gets a swollen bottom lip, it's called angioedema.

This can get quite severe progressing to anaphylactic reactions. So we were looking for a ped who might give injections as we were told this might reduce this reaction. Thanks, Dr Vlad is actually a distant cousin of mine, will give him a call.

Kellly , you would really like Dr Carruthers. Like I said , her son has autism

so she understands. I do not take my kids to her because I have been faithful to

our own pedi...if I would have known sooner I would have went to her. I do not

have her number but just look her up. Her name is Dr. Amy Carruthers and she is

in Westlake.
