Takayasu arteritis - causes vascular stenosis - anyone on this forum have experience with this? Recommend a doctor, either local or somewhere else?

Johns Hopkins has a vasculitis center, which I highly recommend. (I am a physician, and did my residency training there.) They are national leaders in the field, and they are some of the kindest people that I have met. They will collaborate with a physician closer to home, if this is what you need. Wishing you all the best, OP.
