I would recommend anyone see Dr Druckenbrod. I am a physician myself and she is a physicians physician if ever there was one

Dr. Druckenbrod is a true master and model example of how a John Hopkins specialist is perceived to be. Extremely effective at communication, reviewing prior information or remembering, to after actions and plans. This is a complex case with only moderate quality EHR reports prior to continuing care, she has filled the gaps and corrected course effortlessly. Cannot emphasize how much of a relief it is to be under her care.
