Pediatric dysautonomia expert Dr. Kirti Sivakoti, MD, is a pediatrician specializing in complex chronic illness, Associate Professor of Pediatrics at University of Utah, and Associate Medical Director of the Pain and Autonomic Symptoms Evaluation (PAUSE) Program at Primary Children's Center.  In this episode she discusses her observations in this patient population, why she left a more conventional community-based practice to lead a program focused on complex chronic illness, and how her clinic and programs now work to bring together resources and a multidisciplinary approach to helping children and teens with dysautonomia.  Dr. Sivakoti also shares her thoughts on POTS, ME/CFS, complex illness, how the healthcare system needs to better help these patients and more.  This is a great conversation with a very compassionate, thoughtful and knowledgable physician and researcher.
