My Father in Law has ALS. The only Doctors he can find are the ones at Washington University. This is a great school but they need a class on ethics. He has enrolled in 3 different studies and they make him feel like he'll be accepted:-D , but he always gets the call stating he didn't qualify:cry: . As you can expect, this crushes him. Hope is the only thing that helps in a disease this horrible. Can anyone refer me to a good Dr. specializing in ALS in the St. Louis Metro Area (Missouri).
Thank you,
Chad

Hi Chad, Have you tried St Louis University ALS Clinic?? It is certified by ALS assoc. Ghazala Hayat MD is director of the clinic. There's a number for the Nurse coordinator you can call 314 577-8026. Don't know if this is a help, but you can try. My Best to you, Beebe
