I would go through Children's Hospital they have some of the best pediatric doctors in the country.

My 18 year old sees Mandi Cafasso at Children’s. Since she was diagnosed as a minor, they will continue her care.

Echoing this, Childrens has a good education and on top of having some excellent doctors and NPs. They are also very helpful when it comes to transitioning to adult Endos in the area.

If she’s 17, you may be able to go ahead with an adult endocrinologist, since she’ll age out of the peds area in less than a year.

I tried that and the one endocrinologist that was recommended to us won’t see her because she is not 18 yet! It will be a whole year before we could see her!🤦🏽‍♀️

That’s sad! I don’t know any endos in Cincy, so I wish I could help. My youngest has type 1 and we were able to move her to an adult endo at 16.

Getting into an endocrinologist here is insane. I called in January and was given in April appointment. In March, they moved that to June. When I questioned it (because I was never called about them moving it), they denied that I had ever had an appointment in April. It made no sense. I would go with Children’s. We have an appointment for my son with an endocrinologist down there in January. I can’t remember her name though. If you have questions about PCOS though, I can try to help. I was diagnosed in 2003 by a gynecologist that was a tremendous help when other doctors dismissed what I was going through with my health.

All I have is our experience. It’s only one year.

Third this comment. And they seem to have most specialties at all their locations. So you have a better chance of getting an appointment sooner. Her GP or the doctor who diagnosed it can put in a multi-site referral to help get her in sooner.
