Rett syndrome

Back to List of Questions
I am a nurse, and I have a patient that presents with some of the classic signs of Rett syndrome. I want to locate a specialist in Rett syndrome genetics. Could your agency send me a list of practicing physicians and clinics with expertise in this area?
The Information Center does not maintain lists of physicians who specialize in any particular disorder and cannot provide recommendations for medical services. However, Rettsyndrome.org maintains a list of clinics specializing in Rett syndrome on their Web site. This organization also lists state resources which may help you locate Rett syndrome specialists in your area.
