The Cushing’s Support and Research Foundation is a 501 K non-profit organization dedicated to supporting patients with Cushing’s and their families. Since 1995, the CSRF has provided information for patients on the medical aspects of Cushing’s via newsletters and brochures and put Cushing’s patients in contact with other Cushing’s patients. The CSRF has a MEDICAL ADVISORY BOARD consisting of experienced surgeons and endocrinologists who are world renowned for their expertise on Cushing’s.

Many Cushing’s patients endure years of symptoms prior to diagnosis, so another one of our goals is to increase awareness within the general public and the medical community so Cushing’s can be diagnosed sooner. ABOUT THE CSRF has more details on what we offer and what we do.

We are supported primarily by membership and individual donations. The information contained in this web site is free of charge, but we would greatly appreciate your support so we can expand our efforts. For more information on what is included in this web site, see our SITE OVERVIEW.
