It is the APS Foundation of America, Inc Medical Advisors recommendation that every APS patient should get vaccinated for COVID-19. The potential negative health effects of COVID-19 infection are much worse than the extremely rare possible serious side effects of the vaccine.
With the help of our Medical Advisory team our forum members & other APS patients, we have compiled a list of doctors who are familiar with APS and who currently treat APS patients. This list can be found on the Find a Doctors page.
We’re always looking for more doctors to add to our list. If you want to add your doctor or find a doctor that needs to be removed from our list, please use the form on our contact us page.
