why 2500eur too much;maybe 250euro  is normal price
good luck

I tried to call Michael Mann office they said he's only available in November, and the cost is 2500 euros(??) that includes their ultrasound and blood test.

For brunetto, the sec on the main number gave another number which dosent work And told me to try again later lol... So couldn't get the availability or the price for a consulate.

Actually, the expectation, for many years now, is for governments to fund the research and development of a cure HBV.

Unfortunately, doctors, as opposed to researchers, do not treat according to a "best chance" result, unless there are no other options and the patient's life is in danger.

I guess docs who take into account all your results and then based on studies and knowledge advise a treatment combo that will yield the biggest chance to seroconvert. Is this too much to expect?

[StephenCastlecrag]

I am intrigued - how do these doctors functionally cure your HBV?

BTW, the cured HIV patient with leukaemia was an accidental discovery, it was not planned nor expected.

dr brunetto is very difficult, it is possible to get appointment with dr of her team, dr colombatto is easy because he also has private consultation but i d make it clear you dont want to manage an almost inactive infection but try all possibilities to get cured by todays available drugs or the ones they have on trial

dr ferruccio bonino, this is also very good and very sequential peg add on oriented.very open to hbv cure the only one i heard on conferences with such open mind considering mono therapy for hbv obsolete

How do I get to the Italians doctors you mentioned? Do you have the telephone numbers to their clinic to schedule an appointment?

Mike, I tried to call prof Michael Mann on this number: 0511 / 532-9203
They say something about calling another number not sure, but I guess he's closed today since it's Sunday.

I heard this doctor is an expert his name is professor Michael Manns and you can find him in university of hannover which i think about 1 hour and half from berlin

[stef2011]

there are 2 in italy, lampertico and brunetto but difficult to get them because anybody would want them.in this case the lucky part is the you get an hepatologist and one of the best reserchers in the world

in germany there is Julie Lucifora, Ulrike Protzer but i dont know if they are only researchers or also hepatologists

[Aduiski]

Don't know any names in Berlin

[itac]

Preferably I'm looking for ones who are trying to functionally cute you, not maintain your infection based on guidelines. Same like with the German doctor who cured the "berlin patient" both from hiv and leukemia.
I need someone who has a record of knowing how to seroconvert his patient...

Aduiski, if you don't know any names then how do you know they have the best experts in the world?

[Aduiski]

I don't know any sorry...try to google

[itac]

Names please?

[Aduiski]

Germany has some of the best hepatitis experts on the world, there must be some excellent ones in Berlin their largest city.
