Hi. I'm looking for a qualified, competent iritis specialist in the central Virginia area. Can you help me?

Sorry but the Closest COMPETENT Ocular immunlogist is in Maryland, Dr Nguyen is the specialist that I suggest for you or Dr Jaffe in RAleigh Durham North Carolina at Duke.
contact information can be found in the PATIENT information forum at http://www.uveitis.org

I truly wish there were someone closer for you to see. I too have to travel to get COMPETENT help for my Uveitis.

Take care,
Mike

Thank you Mike!

I'd much rather travel than deal with someone that doesn't know what he's doing.

Because these doctors are out of state, it is may be easier to see them now than if you go to someone who THINKS he is an expert. insurance companies would say that you are already seeing a specialist and that wouldn't be the truth since they are so few and far between.

Tell DR Nguyen hello from the online support groups.
