Good to know about Dr Jeffries!

I also found this:

Dr. Ann Brown of Duke University Medical Center. Dr. Ann Brown specializes in the medical management of women with insulin resistance and polycystic ovarian disease.

Are you close to Asheville at all? My doc has an extension office there. He is published in PCOS.

I am not sure if you found a doctor or not but Dr. Brown with Duke is great. Her NP is even better, Kathy Pieria. She is very compassionate and takes the time to talk with you. I just moved from NC to Fort Worth, Texas so if anyone can recommend a great doctor, I would appreciate it.

2nd the rec for Dr. Brown's NP Katherine Pereira. I saw Dr. Brown on my first visit but subsequent visits have all been with Pereira...she is very informed and thorough.
