Question Title: Autonomic Disfunction

Forum: Neurology Forum
Topic: Autonomic


Dear Doctor,

Would you know anyone at the Cleveland Clinic that specializes in Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome or autonomic disorders of this type (orthostatic intollerance). I know of a girl in your area who is unable to travel and is in desperate need of help from a doctor. I would apprecitate your help.

Thanks Dorothy


Dear Dorothy:

I can most strongly recommend Dr. Robert W. Shields, Jr. of the department of neurology at the Cleveland Clinic. He is a nationally renowned expert on autonomic disorders. I am sure he would be most happy to evaluate and help your friend.

Appointments can be made by calling (800)223-2273, or (216)444-5559 locally.
