Dr. Brodsky
 
Hello-

I'm just curious if anyone has been to see Dr. Brodsky. I'm meeting with him in a couple of weeks for a 2nd opinion on my SAA. I've heard great things about him and the staff a John Hopkins. I had Rabbit ATG in May of last year, and responded well at first. However, the last 5-6 months I have seen a decrease in my counts, so it's time for a 2nd opinion on what to do next.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

Two thumbs up from both of us. John did High Dose Cytoxan as his first line of treatment in 2002 at Hopkins. He is so dedicated to his patients. He will spend time with you, answer any and all questions you may have and will let you keep in touch with him via email once you leave in case you have any more questions after you leave.

He pulled John through of few rough spots in this journey.

Other options
 
I can't make any recommendation about Dr Brodsky's treatment, but there is also the possibility of participating in a clinical trial at NIH:
