Guest guest Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 Has anyone been to this doctor? I wonder if he treats patients like us. He is not that far from me and I will go see him if he can get rid of my brain fog and many cognitive problems. His office is in VA Beach, right? > > > _http://www.corepsychblog.com/2007/04/mold_maddness_n.html#comment- 65460060_ > (http://www.corepsychblog.com/2007/04/mold_maddness_n.html#comment- 65460060) > Comments > > > > Dear Dr. , > Thank you for helping to bring to light that an atypical exposure to mold may > cause neurocognitive difficulties.
