I put this list together from the sticky 'Doctors that prescribe LDN' because I'm in the unenviable position of looking for a doctor that will do a phone consult for a reasonable price (my old doctor was Patrick Scott in Wisconsin). I'm specifically looking for someone in the Portland, Oregon area, but I have no problem calling across country.
I noticed that the old sticky had posts from throughout 2004, and I'd like to see a list that has current updates.
If anyone has any information regarding the doctors on the below list (whether they still prescribe, or have stopped) or can add a provider to it, it will be very helpful to many. Also, if you know if the doctor will do phone consults, please make a note of it.
Thanks very much.

Dr. Patrick Scott in Wisconsin, as far as I know will still prescibe LDN, he just can't do phone consults because Wisconsin law forbids it. I had a phone appointment I had to cancel because of this. His nurse did say if I could drive down to La Crosse he still would prescibe it. I'm somewhat lucky, I only live about 150 miles from him. Good luck to all.
Does anyone know of a doctor who will prescribe LDN for ms in central Florida? I can no longer afford Copaxone. My copay just went from $35 to over $350. I guess I could afford it if I give up my car or my home, but really, without the car I wouldn't be able to get to work, and without my home I wouldn't be able to get ready for work. HELP. I'm really in a pickle. Plus, my child has type I Diabetes, and his condition is very expensive as well.
