Dr. Rosamund VallingsMNZM, MB BS (Lond), MRCS LRCP, Dip Clin Hyp, BA (Massey)
I ran a medical practice in Auckland from 1966, and this became specialised over the next 35 years, with most patients suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME) and related conditions. I have been involved in diagnosing and managing these patients who have mostly come on referral from other doctors. Read more... |
Recent Retirement
I have recently retired from my medical practice, but will continue teaching about ME/CFS to other doctors and health professionals, and maintain active participation in research.
If you have been a patient of mine, assuming you were referred by your GP, your GP will have received a letter from me outlining a detailed management plan. So if you do need medical help, your own GP should now be your first port of call. Those patients who are registered at our Howick practice, will continue to be cared for by the excellent team of doctors there.
For support, information handouts and membership details contact ANZMES, our national organisation. ANZMES however cannot give personalised medical advice.

CFS/ME and Covid-19
A lot of you have been asking about guidelines for the management of your health during this very difficult and unusual time, as we are all seemingly at risk of this new infection. Because it is so new, the easy answer is that we really do not know how this infection is likely to impact on those with CFS/ME. Click here for a few of the questions I am being asked and I will try to answer them. I do have a list of websites from around the world in relation to these issues. They may vary a little in the advice offered. But just use common sense. Remember you know your body better than anyone else!
