Biography
Jeffrey Dunn, MD is Professor of Clinical Neurology and Chief of Neuroimmunology in the Department of Neurology at Stanford University. He specializes in the diagnosis, treatment and research of immune-mediated diseases of the central nervous system, including Multiple Sclerosis, transverse myelitis, and Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders. Dr. Dunn is regarded nationally as among the foundational leaders in his field and is an elected Fellow of the American Academy of Neurology. He is the past Chair of the MS Section of the AAN and serves on the national medical advisory board of the National MS Society. As Principal Investigator in more than 30 clinical research trials, Dr. Dunn has helped usher in new and improved immunotherapies for Multiple Sclerosis. He is the architect of Project BIG (see www.projectbig.com), an interdisciplinary research collaborative with Stanford scientists to identify biomarkers and candidate therapeutic targets within the paradigm of precision medicine. He is a US patent holder for a marker of MS treatment response with co-inventors, and has authored more than 50 peer-reviewed manuscripts and abstracts. Dr. Dunn has been recognized for excellence in clinical teaching with numerous and sustained awards (see below). In recognition of his dedication to the educational mission, his name is given to the eponymous Fishers-Dunn Prize, awarded annually to best medical student teaching among active Neurology residents.

Not sure which "care provider" this is talking about because I saw 2 M.D.'s. I filled it out about Dr. Dunn because Dr. Dunn is awesome!! The other doctor was one of the blinded docs so I don't really chat with them a whole lot just to make sure I don't say too much about the study drug I'm on.

Dr. Dunn provided me with an accurate diagnosis to my debilitating disease after several hours researching.
Kindest dr. I've ever encountered.
Dr. Dunn is the most astonishingly wonderful physician I've ever met with in my 46 years on the planet. This was my first office visit with him. I have never been so impressed in my life.
