A Johns Hopkins School of Medicine graduate, Dr. Bateman’s interest in chronic fatigue syndrome/fibromyalgia began after her sister, Shauna, became chronically ill in 1987 and was diagnosed with depression and advised to ‘take a night class”. Further investigations by Dr. Bateman convinced her that her sister had fibromyalgia/ME/CFS.
Dr. Bateman opened the Fatigue Consultation Clinic in 2000 and since then has served on numerous boards and positions including the Boards of the International Association of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (IACFS/ME) and CFIDS Association of America, the federal advisory panel for CFS (CFSAC). She has also co-authored a CDC video course, has participated in numerous clinical trials, is a frequent speaker at events and created OFFER (The Organization for Fatigue and Fibromyalgia Education and Research), a non-profit group in Salt Lake City that has produced several conferences.
Dr. Bateman’s Tips and Travails of Treatment may be the single best introduction to treatment found.
