This clinic is a great source for getting diagnosed and treated. The website is also very informative. They have locations throughout the US. I have gone to the one in Wa. They do not accept insurance, you will be billed directly but can submit for reimbursement. They do out of town/state phone consults with patients and Rx can be mailed.

" Hi Wannabewell,

I had looked at this clinic awhile back as they have one real close to where I live. I called about five months and asked if they knew about the link between nickel and CFS and metals to autoimmunity. At that time they were saying they didn't know. Well I'm not going anywhere unless I find someplace that takes the metal thing into consideration. Well I just received a post card and low and behold they are making the connection to metals and autoimmunity so I may consider going back to them. The insurance thing is hard though. Doesnt' it make you mad that they don't cover this? "

" Many ppl view a clinic or doctor not taking insurance as a red flag. In truth, it allows them to keep costs down and offer more treatment options. "
