There are more MD's these days who practice environmental medicine. There is at

least one practitioner I know of in the Seattle area.

Stacey,

You probably aren't going to find a conventional physician who will

think outside the pharmaceutical box. Dr. Shoemaker is good, but if

you can't get to him, if you look at the AAEM list of environmental

doctors in your region by doing a computer search, some of them know

and treat mold/chemical exposures. Ask questions about their protocols

before you make the appointment like " How do you treat mold/chemical

exposures? "

You can also look up practitioners in your area who are naturopaths,

or alternative medicine practitioners.Sometimes chiropractors

especially chiropractic neurologists can be helpful. Again, ask

questions before you go to the office. Some in my area will talk to

patients certain hours and talk about their detox protocols like IV

supplementation, oral chelation, and oxygen therapies.

Hope this gives you some ideas...

Ha accepts Blue Cross Blue Sheild. But make sure your plan pays out of state

physicians. On the back of your card, there should be a paragraph about out of

state. If you can't locate it, call his office and they can help you.

Yes he does but some of the tests are not covered, the easiest way to know is to

call his office. Since you said you already are going to do so, Ta da..  problem

solved.

Does Dr. Shoemaker accept any types of insurance or is this something

that is 100% out of pocket?

[Guest guest]

As far as I know he still takes BC/BS.
