Wondering if anyone has any experience with either of these doctors as an out of state patient? I have done a lot of research & I am trying to make a decision about working with an out of state doc and how to best proceed.

If you are willing to share your experience or insights with either of these doctors, please PM me or let me know how to contact you at your convenience.

Much thanks!

best way to get answers from Dr H's office is to fax in your questions--speedy turnaround!

Thanks so much for your replies.

I know it will take a while to get in & have at least gotten started with another LLMD & with the help of my naturopath.

I want to make sure that I am choosing the right practitioner, especially since much of my contact will be via phone consultations between appointments. I haven't actually spoken to anyone who works with a doctor long distance & am curious about how that works. Although I am functional (well, sort of), it seems all my systems are affected after so many years and I don't want to waste anymore time with the wrong treatments or doctors.

Thanks!

I have not seen either of those doctors, but we have worked with all of our LLMD's long distance.

It has worked very well as long as they did phone consults in between. One of the LLMD's only saw us every 5 months and did not do phone consults so I felt we were out on our own for too long.

As long as I can talk to them regularly, I feel like we are getting the same level of care we would get if we were in the office.

Thanks, jkmom!

Good to hear that you feel that you are getting good care & that this method is working for you.
