Tips for Finding a Doctor

You found a doctor nearby, now what? Here are helpful tips and next steps.

Tip #1: Contact the physician’s office directly.

 Ask if a doctor is currently accepting new patients and inquire about his or her experience level in diagnosing mitochondrial disease. Remember to check about insurance coverage too.

Tip #2: Go online, connect with other families.

Ask about their experiences with a specific doctor. Keep in mind each patient’s diagnosis, treatment and values may be different from yours.

Inspire Mito Energy Connection: A peer-to-peer online support and discussion community to gather and share information. JOIN

Tip #3: Contact our Support Team.
