Dear Dr Noto,

It is with great interest that I often read you emails from the Leprosy Blog.  I now come to you with a question.

I was contacted by a Canadian man living in Vancouver British Colombia. An International traveller, he has had various medical problems in the last year.  He is looking for a doctor who could recognize leprosy in western Canada .  His own doctor does not believe it is leprosy.  He told me he has some facial changes, his fingers are curling, his eyes are sensitive to light.  He would like to meet a leprologist or at least a doctor specialized in tropical diseases with some experience with leprosy.

Do you know of a leprologist near Vancouver BC ?

Thank you for your precious help.
