Dr Enlander cost?

[olliec]

I saw Dr Enlander for an initial consult in London last summer (where I live) and I paid £350 (3.5hrs). I called his office to book an appointment in New York as I will be there in a few weeks and I'm told it's $750, even for follow-ups. Can anyone advise me whether their experience matches this? I wonder if it is cheaper to do a consult on Skype with him, or meet him again as and when he's in London as $750 (£500) for a consult seems quite expensive for someone like me who pays, without insurance.

I've tried the mito/methylation supplements and MAF878 and neither had any effect, so my aim is to try GcMAF. I did try seeing KDM in Belgium, but I didn't have a good experience sadly. I'm not too keen to just order GcMAF off the net and inject it without a doctor's support, but it seems a shame to spend as much on the advice as the actual treatment. I wonder if there are any UK doctors supporting patients on GcMAF.

I'd appreciate any experiences or thoughts anyone can share.

Aha, that's very helpful, thank you. I think that might be a better option.

Ollie- What he is charging for consult in person is the tip of the iceberg here in the US. $750.00 an hour with $750
for phone consult for an hour. $12 thousand for me in 9 months. Now I have to agree to another appt. or they will drop me. This is not to mention phone consults and e-mail charges of $10.00 per word. I just can't do it anymore. Also I am no better.
This is for one of the top specialist I have been seeing.

Hope Dr. Enlander works out better for you.

What is it you want from Enlander? His protocol is out there....immunoprop.. b12, hepapressin....maybe gcmaf....
Neilk & Vli are present and past patients....so you could ask them.
Everyone says he's a nice guy... but can he help? That's the question.
Personally, I think KDM can offer much more.....IF he can help you.

I love Dr. Enlander. He has turned my health and the health of my husband around almost completely. I am hoping to be as close to 100% well in another 4 or 5 months. I would try him first as I can personally testify to his ability. I started out in a wheel chair in public and now can work 100 hour weeks. He is great!

If he charges so much less for Skype why bother with the in person? It's not like they can find any abnormalities in a general physical.

I'm not sure he could prescribe after a Skype consult--something you might want to check. Many MDs have to see you in person in order to prescribe.
