Individual Consulting

for those with complex chronic illness

For nearly three years, I was bedridden with a chronic and poorly-understood illness. Like so many people with complex chronic illness, I was forced to navigate a skeptical, and sometimes hostile, medical system. Through my own investigative work, I ultimately figured out the underlying cause of my illness and was fortunate to make a full recovery after pursuing treatment.

I now work as a consultant to chronically ill patients, as well as to researchers and MDs who serve the chronically ill community.

​​I live in California and work with people from all over the world, thus far from: Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan, France, New Zealand, the Netherlands, India, Australia, Spain, Slovenia, Ecuador, Switzerland, Romania, Pakistan, Sweden, Mexico, Austria, Morocco, Turkey, and every geographical region of the United States.

David Kaufman, M.D. - internist and complex disease specialist - said to Jeff:
"If I were ill, I would want you on my team for sure."

"Jeff is a really sincere, good, kind man. That’s basically all I wanted to say from someone who has met him in person. He’s extremely empathetic and intelligent. It doesn’t surprise me that he figured out so much on his own."

A severely and chronically ill mother of three said:
"Jeff has helped me so much with my care, advocating for me (and helping me advocate for myself). He is always there to help me sort out these incredibly complicated, nuanced, intricate issues...and we have a solid plan I feel so comfortable with.

I am so thankful, because I do not have the ability to analyze the situation and make plans to tackle all the never-ending obstacles to receiving the medical care I need. I feel such a relief...and I cannot tell you how I went from total despair, to feeling hopeful."
