been to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minn.

Who is the best rheumy Dr. there for RP ????

Heidi, the only one I know of is Dr. Luthra. When I was talking to

Bradley, he said he was working under Dr. Luthra in RA research and that's

when they both stumbled onto RP. He said Dr. Luthra was a wonderful doctor

for RP.

Hope this helps.

Heidi,

I agree with Carol. Mayo's doctors specialize in certain diseases. Dr. Clement Michet's disease speciality is RP. He's the Dr. I've been seeing for the past year and he sees many other RP patients from all over the world. Dr. Luthra is Chair of the Rheumatology Dept. but I'm not aware of his speciality.

Hope you and Don have a great weekend.

Love to you both,
