Guest guest Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Hello, Can anyone recommend a great mold doctor in New York CIty, someone who would understand fungal infections (ringworm) and reactions to mold? Thank you! Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I saw Dr. Eckardt Johanning (www.fungalresearchgroup.com; 518-459-3336) starting in 2002. His office was in Albany, NY (you can take a train from NYC), but he also had days when he worked out of an NYC office. When I saw him, his focus was primarily on the research. He was the first doctor that I saw that understood.....ran test that identified what the problem was (exposure to toxic mold) and was able to show that all of my varied symptoms did have a common source. He started me on antifungals and cholestyramine (I didn't tolerate it well, so he switched me to welchol). This was back in 2002 / 2003. Dr. Shoemaker is also fantastic. I just wish he had a more convenient office location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I think Welchol is excellent. It also has the benefits of lowering blood sugar and cholesterol (which is what is was designed for.) Dr. Johanning knows exactly what he is talking about. > > I saw Dr. Eckardt Johanning (www.fungalresearchgroup.com; 518-459-3336) starting in 2002.
