Guest guest Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Thank you. Is there anyway to find out if this doctor is familiar with neurological disorders. I don't know of any around here so I couldn't suggest one to them. Thank you so much for your input. Bobbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Bobbie, Possibly. You can try to look up the doctor's name and number in the phone book and see if he/she has an office listing, then call that number and ask the receptionist what the doctor's certification is. Second to that, again, assuming you know the doctor's name, you can try to find her/him through AMA's Doctor Finder - which has background like where the doc went to school, did residency, etc. If I can help, let me know. Email me directly. ~ Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
