Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Mayo Clinic is well known for mitochondrial diseases. Dr. Whiteman is a very good mito doctor there. Many people on this support group use him. Another good diagnostic dr. is Shnoffner, I believe he is at the Shriners hospital in Atlanta. My daughter sees Dr. Bruce Cohen. He is at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland Ohio. He is also well known for mito diseases. I believe all of these hospitals offer fresh muscle biopsies, this is essential. There have been many wrong diagnoses with frozen biopsies. Good luck with your search! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
