Guest guest Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 Couple more things about Dr. Neubrander that I should have mentioned: 1) You have to complete paperwork for the inital appointment and (to a lesser degree) for each appointment thereafter so that they have the info. they need at their fingertips to focus on your child's needs. Although I have felt " under the gun " at times because of this, I now have an amazing record of my son's progress and the road that we are traveling to help him! I have also leared more from completing that paperwork than I have from anything else I have ever done since my son regressed at 30 months. 2) On several occasions, we have received telephone calls from Dr. N., his assistant, , or his brother, Rick to either help us with a crisis or to answer a question we had. Their willingness to go above and beyond to help my son and ease our worries has been greater than that of any other doctor's office I have ever encountered in my 40 years of life.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I have to ditto everything that is written in this post. I was doing pretty well by myself, but since starting MB-12, my son is just soaring. I've added other supplements along the way, but it's fantastic to have a sounding board for the research I've found and the results I've seen with my son. This is the first time I ever felt a doctor actually LISTENED to what I was saying. Right now, we're working with , his PA, and he really knows his stuff - and I can't recommend him enough. When you do go, they ask that you start with MB-12 shots for a 5 week trial (1 shot every 3 days) to see if your child is a responder. I figured if they had such success with it, I might as well give it a try - and felt that the 5 weeks was nothing compared to what we'd already been through. I'm glad I gave it a shot, we've seen leaps and bounds with the MB-12 in a very short period of time. He's doing so well with it, that I asked to change it to every other day, and at his next appt, I want to go every day. (I hate giving him them, but boy is there a difference!) Don't let this discourage you, but. they have you fill out a TON of paperwork, but in order for them to have a clear picture and get your history (and spend the least amount of time digging for the info they need when they need it, their system seems to greatly cut down on dr time spent and $$ to see the doctor. The times I've been there, I've felt that because of this, no stone was left unturned - and we're not dancing around things, forgetting things, etc - and we're on it together to heal my son. I have NEVER left a doctor's office with so many answers to my questions and had everything I needed! I really can't recommend them enough. Their practice has me very impressed, and that's not easy to do. From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of mrsstanko Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2007 9:58 AM Subject: Re: dr. neubrander My son has been going to Dr. Neubrander's office for almost two years. His progress would be nowhere without methyl B-12 and many of the other biomedical interventions that we have implemented under the care of those in this office. One of the greatest treatments we have discovered thanks to Dr. N. is mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy (mHBOT.) We were able to rent a chamber and be trained through this office and subsequently purchased a unit because of our son's blatant increases in language, affect, sense of humor, and awareness. My husband and I do a great deal of research on our own and bring ideas to medical professionals rather than the other way around. Dr. Neubrander and his assistants have been willing to work collaboratively and have been open-minded about our ideas, and with their input and guidance, our son has been making tremendous strides. Dr. N. is a truly a courageous poineer in the autism world, and he has an insurmountable amount of experience in his field (I believe over 3,000 kids). Every dime we ever spent in his office has been well worth it, although recently we have been doing some stuff on our own such as starting SCD because our financial resources are dwindling and we need to find some balance in our quest to help our son reach his potential. If you have not checked out his website, it is drneubrander.com Also, a lot of other parents whose children have been helped by Dr. N are active on the biomedical board at autismweb.com . You may want to post there or do a search on him there as part of your research. Good luck with your decision! MS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Does anyone know if the SCD diet and Dr. Natasha McBrides approach is something Dr. Neubrander recommends? Or only for certain people? What is his take on enzymes? > > HI Kim > > I too live in NJ and have seen Dr. Neubrander's web-site...and am very curious.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Kim the paperwork is a nightmare. I usually start it a week before I have to send because otherwise I get tired and may not be as complete in my answers. Its also a good thing. When I go to do the paperwork for the next cycle, I just add the numbers in the next column, then I go back and read what I wrote for each thing I gave a number too. Sometimes I realize my son is doing better than I thought. Reading the examples you give just reminds you of how far they have come. I think you only have to do the full PDRF for a year then you can just write a summary. That was heaven. It's not as bad as it seems once you get the hang of it and get a system down. The first one or two were hardest. Just make sure you leave yourself plenty of time the first few times you do it so you can gauge how long it will take you. I found it very helpful to leave a composition notebook on the counter. Anytime my son did something I felt would be worth mentioning, or saw anything new good or bad, I wrote it down. I just put the date and what he did. If he got a shot that day I put the shot number next to the date. In the beginning I was running back and forth to that notebook 10 times a day!!! It just made it easier at the end of the cycle to sit and remember everything he did. It makes it easier day by day too because sometimes I'd get lazy and not write stuff down, then I'd sit there thinking " what did he say that was so funny? " or something like that.
