Search: You can start a search here and other online sites. http://www.ucomparehealthcare.com/drs/new_york/pain_management_physicians/Brooklyn.html But research is important. Also get referrals from people you trust. Ask hard questions in a respectful manner. Your ex-doctor is a good start for leads. Good luck.

Yes.: Rheumatologists and some primary care physicians along with physiatrists and pain managements specialists can all treat fibromyalgia if they desire and wish to make that part of their practice. Best to call physician's office first and ask if they treat before scheduling appointment. Or, you may need referral from your primary physician depending on severity. Do some homework! Best wishes.
