Answer 1

Ask your primary physician to recommend an endocrinologist/s. Call the offices of the endocrinologists; check what hospitals they go to, what type of insurance coverage they have and ask for references. Also you can ask your friends and/or family if they have heard of any endocrinologists and if they have, from whom and use that person as a reference. You can look in the yellow pages too, but you don't always know how good that specialist is. It's kind of pot-luck.
Below is listed a website where you can search for an endocrinologist in your area. It is supplied by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE)
Make sure you always ask for references when looking for a new physician.

Answer 2

I might caution you about using homeopathic solutions for Addisons disease. It is clearly understood that Addison's is a deficiency in corticosteriod hormones usually naturally produced by your adrenal glands. This is either directly due to adrenal glands or secondary due to your pituitary gland. Depending on which hormones you are deficient dictates the treatment. Tests are required to determine this.

You are correct to seek an endocrinolgist is helping you manage this disorder. Untreated Addisons can result in a life threatening Addisons crisis.

To find an endocrinologist you might try accessing the American Assoc of Endocrinologists as suggested above:

I am certain they can help you locate a qualified endocrinologist in your area.

Good luck

Answer 3

Your best bet is to ask your doctor for a referral or look in the yellow pages of your phone book if you live in or near a larger city. You can also find plenty of endocrinologists at a university teaching hospital in your state.

Answer 4

Dear James,
You can be treated and cured according to the symptoms you exactly feel not by the name of the disorder, with Homeopathic Remedies, you see Homeopathy treats the Person(The whole being) not the disease or disorder.
Your complete symptoms are needed to suggest an appropriate treatment for you. And please verify your email address because I tried to answer your email and it said your email address is not verified.
Take Care and God Bless you !
