LPA's Medical Advisory Board
The Medical Advisory Board is a group of physicians and other health
professionals who have been dedicated to providing expert medical
care to people with dwarfism. These medical providers are experts
in dwarfism and have had experience with many patients of various
dwarfing conditions. In addition to seeing many individuals with
dwarfism in their practices, they provide free medical consultations
at national and regional conferences, conduct valuable research
on dwarfing conditions, and serve as medical advisors to many LPs
and their physicians.
