HI Earl,
I do not have direct experience with the 'Fibro & Fatigue
Centers'...but I do have an appt. w/Dr Holtolf at his medical
clinic...his site is www.hormoneandlongevitycenter.com/hormonedoctor/
I don't know if I will keep it as I have read pro's and con's of his
care, office and mostly it's expensive. So this may or may not be
an issue for you. He books 4 mths out, his office contact was very
professional and encouraging when I spoke with her.
I researched his name on www.immunesupport.com (Rich Carson's
ProHealth site) to see what people's experiences were on the message
boards for CFIDS/FM. He's very current,obviously ,in integrative
medicine for treatment.
It is my understanding that he is no longer affliated with Fibro &
Fatigue...Holtolf Medical Clinic is his own now and yes, I have read
he is responsible for writing protocols for the FFC's...and Dr.
Teitelbaum is more the head of the centers...
Anyway...If you don't already have the above sites, hopefully they
will serve as some reference for you. Good Luck and let us know
about your experience if you do visit the Holtorf Clinic in Torrance
or FFC in other area.
