WHAT IS PANS/PANDAS?
PANS and PANDAS (also known as Basal Ganglia Encephalitis) are disorders of the immune system that occur in 1 in 200 children. The course is of abrupt onset and is often episodic or waxing and waning, and sometimes difficult to understand. My guidebook and mentorship program helps medical professionals understand, diagnose and treat PANS, PANDAS and BGE.
