Portland/ Seattle practitioner?

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

I am an need of a referal in the Portland/Seattle area. My

friend's mother is suffering from what seem's to be a one-sided

nueropathy of the optic nerve. She reports a large blackout of most of

her vision in one eye. It was preceded by a long bout of stress and

rising blood pressure. The loss of vision happened suddenly, with the

blood pressure dropping afterwards. I don't have much more

information, since I have never met or spoken to her. The biomed docs

have ruled out any tumors and diabetes complications from the

diagnosis. She is scheduled to visit a nuero-opthamologist next; but

she wants to give chinese medicine a serious try. Any eye specialists

out there???

thanks,

matt

Matt,

Hoy Ping Yee Chan is in the Seattle (maybe Bellevue?) area. She has

written a book about ocular diagnosis and treatment for all kinds of

conditions but because of her connections to the eye people around

here send her their complicated eye patients. I don't have her

phone number here, I will look for it in my office tommorow.

Good luck,

Jill Likkel
