Re: Hospitals/Doctor recommendations in Boston

[Guest guest]

Hi there!

My current hepatologist is Dan Pratt at Mass General. But I would start with

Rick Curtis at

Newton-Wellesley Hospital. You will have a much easier time getting in to see

him. With

Pratt, you could wait for 3 months.

Rick Curtis is my GI -- he is who Dxed me with PSC back in 2000. He is the chief

of GI at

NWH and he is a very, very good doctor -- very thorough. He performs his own

endoscopies,

biopsies, etc. I still go in to see him a couple times a year and go to him for

my annual

colonoscopy. If you have PSC, he will contact Dr. Pratt and you will be seen

much faster than

you can manage on your own.

Call his office -- and ask to speak to Kay. Tell her that Colleen

Kueter

(pronounced Cuter) gave you his name.

Good luck!

Colleen

into the doctors you mentioned.
