Guest guest Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 I know several on this list see DR. Hendriks Whitman in New Jersey. We travel from Ohio to see him. I have for about 8 years now...In my opinion...and I have seen all of the well known AP physicians, DR. Whitman is the hands down BEST! He spends about an hour with you on your first visit...then spends about 45 minutes with me each year when I see him...and he is available via email as well. Hope this helps, Debbie in Ohio SD rheumatic Any of you doing okay with Celebrex and Minocycline > alone? > > > > Hi, > > Is this therapy working for anyone?

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Hi Debbie, I went to see Dr. Whitman as you suggested. I saw him twice because I wanted a Rheumy who would monitor me thru the Marshall Protocol. During our first visit, he said he would be happy to monitor me and so I gave him the copy of the the Protocol. On our second visit. The room was full of students. He spoke to them, not me, and decided to change and rearrange the protocol. That is not what I wanted. Then his secretary called telling me that Dr. Whitman wanted to change the medication on the protocol to something I had just gone off in order to start the protocol. Needless to say, I found a local PCP in my area who is helping me follow the protocol as it is written. Any deviation from the protocol is not considered to be on the protocol. So, he did not work well for what I wanted. I am not knocking him as a doctor, but I wish he had just said no, the first time. I could have saved myself the trip. I'm glad he is helping you and others. But he promised to monitor me thru the protocol and then proceeded to change all the rules. I want a doctor who will be honest with me from the start. So, I will not be seeing him again. But thanks for the information. I hope he works out for the people you recommend him to.
