Sue said: "I
had a call from a woman in Detroit, MI. She saw a new doctor at the Detroit
Medical Center and he diagnosed her on the first visit. He's new to the
medical profession. He sat down with her and showed her a book w/classic
patients pictures and drew the pituitary and adrenal glands to show her
where the tumors could be. I was impressed. New physician and knows
Cushings? Umm." |

The first time Dr. Hammoud saw me he said, "Cushing's". At the time, I
had no clue as to what that was!
Well, my tests came back normal. He had been so sure it was
Cushing's...and, after visiting this site, I'm 180% sure myself! I was
adamant about it and, luckily, he LISTENED. He has referred me to a doctor
at the University of Michigan, who specializes in Cushing's...

Dr. Badra is a caring doctor who once told me that she treats her
patients like she would her own family. When I first visited her in March,
I was a nervous wreck. I cried the whole time as I showed her a long list
of symptoms. Instead of brushing me off as a nut, she LISTENED and BELIEVED
in me. She told me that if she couldn't help me, she would find someone who
could. With that, she scheduled me for several tests and referred me to
various specialists. I'm so lucky to have found her!

He has been just great in learning more about
Cushing's. He even took my medical records home during a recent
hospitalization I had for cellulitis in my leg because he couldn't figure
out why my white cell count would not drop despite all evidence of infection
being gone and my being on strong antibiotics. Once he discovered that my
normal count was very high he proceeded to dig into Cushing's side effects
and found this to be consistent with the disease. He is a new doctor to our
area, isn't even in the phone books yet, and he admits that he doesn't know
a lot about Cushing's but he is eager to learn along with me and very much
encourages me to have any and all test results sent on to him from my
various specialists.
Any doctor that will take home a patient's records and dig for information
on his own time at home is wonderful in my opinion. |

I haven't seen him yet, but this is the specialist that I have been

specializes in Cushing's. I don't even have an appointment quite yet but I
