Thanks in advance, Hi Ann Marie, Adrienne is away on vacation this week, but I know she sees Dr Gropman and she is almost 25 yrs old. I think Adrienne did mention that she does see adults there on certain days of the month. I would make the appt. soon though if you are hoping for June. It sounds like she gets booked pretty quickly.

Hi Beth, Dr Mark Korson sees adults, as well as children, at New England Medical Center/The Floating Hospital for Children, but he currently isn't taking new patients outside of the New England area. Hopefully that will change once he gets a new metabolics doc to work with him. Malisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 These are all excellent Mito doctors. Dr Shoffner does biopsies but does not treat. I don't know Dr Whiteman. Dr Haas and Dr Gropman are very well known and well liked. Unfortunately, Dr Cohen has much too big a case load so he's not taking any new adults. He's actually a pediatric neurologist but has taken adult Mito patients in the past.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Hi, Dr. Gropman is at Childrens Hospital in DC, Isn't she pediatric? Or does she see adults too? It would be great to find out as we are going to be in the DC area for the month of June and at Childrens for follow up on some of Joe's other issues.
