Dr. Dore is a wonderful doctor. She is my rheumatologist and literally saved my life!! Great video!!!

Thank you a fantastic, comprehensive and clear explanation! Helps to show the family such a good video to help them understand this seemly hidden chronic condition. Unfortunately the kinds of physical exercise discussed isn't available in the U.K, even in 2016. I would have been very interested to hear this experts knowledge of the apparent cross over of CFS and Fibro.

Dr. Dore, I wish I could receive treatment from you again. I don't live in California anymore--now in Durango, CO, since November 2013. These doctors don't want to refer me to a rheumatologist, either.

Can anyone tell me if Dr.Dore has written any books or papers I can access in the U.K? Many thanks. 😀

My primary doctor hesitates giving me a referral to a rheumatologist, saying that primary doctors are successful in treating fibromyalgia. Why?
