i am not speaking for any of them, however I will make the following remark: they will diagnose and see any patient who comes through the door, through clinical findings and blood work. They will be honest about what they think, whether they feel the diagnosis is ME/CFS or it's something else.Do Drs. Kogelnik, others at OMI, and/or Dr. Kaufman require PEM to diagnose ME/cfs?
I am curious about why you are asking?
The Open Medicine Clinic is a leader in practicing precision medicine in the era of big data. Our physicians and other providers offer clinical services in the following areas:
We are a fee-for-service clinic adjacent to the Open Medicine Institute. On site services include:
- Unexplained/Difficult Cases
- Genomic Medicine
- General Internal Medicine
- Infectious Diseases and HIV
- Diet and Nutrition Consultation
- Immunology
We see adult and pediatric patients.
- IV Infusion services
- Stress/VO2 max testing (via OMI)
- Lab draw services (via OMI)
- SIBO testing, and more
Do you have current contact info for Dr. Kaufman?I just looked at OMI's website which currently lists only Dr. Kogelnik and Katie Reid (PhD and nutrition counselor) as the two clinicians. Dr. Kaufman and Dr. Chheda's names are removed. So, as far as I can tell, this is how OMI is describing their current services. I had a phone consult on Mon w/Dr. Kaufman and he is working on getting legal permission to release the name of his new clinic (I have no idea what it will be as they cannot disclose it yet) but I imagine that it will have a website and detailed description in the future, too.
