Question:
Just where is this doctor! What is her name? I don’t quite remember her/him. Did you say Dr. Vasquez? Hmmmmm! Would be interesting to know if she really exists or he really exists.
Response:
Doris, I had noticed she was one of the doctors with the SCTC, Scleroderma Clinical Trials Consortium. Check this page: http://www.sctc-online.org/usa.htm She’s under Connecticut. I have also seen her name as co-author of several medical articles around the internet. jude "Doris" <dreich…@toad.net> wrote in message

Dr Vasquez-Abad is a scleroderma researcher at the University of Connecticut Health Center. She’s a member of the SCTC and has received research grant money from the Scleroderma Foundation in the past. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -Doris wrote: >Just where is this doctor!

Hi there everyone, I recall her being online in the mid nineties. She had a small website with her telephone number and address. She was quoted quite often, then she suddenly disappeared. Maybe she stopped participating once she was established. These doctors are so busy. I always question how well qualified a doctor that appears to have the time to "advertise" is. I never used to miss the quarterly scleroderma meetings in Long Island New York. They were sponsored by the Tri-State chapter of the SF. An enormous amount of work went in to tracking down doctors and other health care professionals to be guests. There were always last minute cancellations. My rheumatologist is quite well known. He has discontinued taking on new patients. I often worry because almost all of the well established rheums who specialise in scleroderma are getting really up there in age. I also am concerned about my rheum retiring. He already has taken a young doctor in to his practice. There was a time when he would never work with someone else. I guess it says something about the progress that has been made in treating scleroderma symtomatically. Hopefully there will be a cure within our life time. If not ours at least our childrens. All my best, Mia

Good rheumies, no matter what their sub-specialty is, are as scarce as hens’ teeth. When I lived in St. Joe, Missouri (75,000 population & 25,000 in the surrounding area) there were two rheumies.
