Hey everyone, 

I had just sent my last message to you all, and then found that my wife has come across an excellent resource.  I will share it with you.  It is from Disability Rights of North Carolina.  Although from a state, it is about (federal) ADA for doctors’ offices, so it ought to apply to all states.  This is the first thing of it’s kind that I have found that was not only strong and clear, but also very carefully substantiated.

 At the end of the document, it lists specific court decisions, which is extremely helpful and clear as a demonstrating explanation of rules.  And then, it contains a sample letter, which if one of us is faced again with this situation, can be used.  The letter also contains footnotes, citing specific grounding sources for important points in this letter.  

Here is the link to the PDF document:

And here it is, in PDF form:


Best,
Peter
