Endocrinologist |
Dr. Sue Challinor |
expert in diagnosing cushings aware there may be some negative urines even tho you have cushings. I had one negative urine rest were positive. She at least listened to my believe I had cushings and she did the work up. I had a adrenal tumor even tho small, 2.7cm, it was causing cushings. |

She is a very nice dr...never had any problems with her... seems to know alot about Cushing's... she has diagnosed about 15 cases of Cushing's that I know of since she's been in practice... worth seeing if you don't live too far from Erie... |

Endocrinologist and Pituitary Specialist |
Serge Jabbour, M.D. |
My doctor is...an endocrinologist and pituitary specialist and a wonderful, reliable, caring doctor. He collaborates well with other doctors, communicates well with patients, and is knowledgeable about Cushing's. Having worked with other doctors at major teaching institutions in Philadelphia, including some noted to be the best, I would say that Dr. Jabbour is leaps and bounds ahead. Jefferson's a very decent hospital as well. |
