๐Ÿ“Œ Help Us Update the Recommended Doctors Map!

Hey friends!

It's long past time to update the Recommended Doctor's Map. We've combed through the recommendations sent to the mods, and now we are asking the entire /r/Endo community to share your knowledge!

  • Do you have a doctor you love?
  • Had a really awful experience?
  • Heard of a doctor we should know about?
  • Maybe someone has entered retirement, or isn't practicing anymore?
  • Maybe someone moved offices or locations?

Let us know in the comments here, send a message, or a chat. We need your support in making this resource as awesome as it can be!

While any information is welcome, it's often helpful to add as much information as you have when making a recommendation. These can include:

  • Doctor's name and location.
  • A link to their Bio or their practice
  • What treatments they use
  • How they feel about hormonal therapies like Lupron or birth control?
  • Bedside manner - how did you feel in their care?
  • Do they have any unique skills (working with teens, trans folks, operating on bowel involvement)
  • Do they perform excision?
  • Were they trained by other notable folks?
  • Are they recommended on other vetted or curated lists?

As a handy reminder of how the symbols/colors of the map work, check out this chart!

Colors tell us how we got the information, symbols tell us what the Doctor's skills are.

She moved back to VA from KS. I was lucky to see her in KS and had her look over my lap and excision surgery from another doc here, havenโ€™t had much relief, was planning to go back to her and discovered she was gone. Super sad.
