Who are the experts in Israel?

[Guest guest]

This is mostly for Doctor Grim, but I'd be interested to know if anyone

else on the list lives in Israel.

I have posted before about my daughter, who was diagnosed with PA about

a month ago. She just got the results of her CT back, and it shows a

left adrenal adenoma of 1cm X 2.3cm. The nephrologist told her before

that if it came back with an adenoma that he would refer her on. She has

her next appointment on Tuesday.

Do you know who the experts are in Israel? We live within easy access of

Tel Aviv hospitals and can also get to Jerusalem.

Should she be seeing an endocrinologist now? Or should she first go to

an AVS expert?

I have seen articles on the subject from doctors at Hadassa-Ein Kerem

hospital in Jerusalem, so I wonder if that's the right place, but they

seemed to be small studies (20 patients). But maybe that's a lot in a

country of only 7 million people.

Thanks in advance,

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough

people to make it worth the effort.
