Gratitude. This is the one-word Dr. Lichtenberger uses to
describe his life and every step along the journey so far. He developed a
strong interest in medical research and a scientific career from a very early
age. He attended The Ohio State University College of Medicine in the
Physician-Scientist Training program. Earing his PhD in Immunology by
researching the influence of chronic inflammation in the lung. From Internal
Medicine Residency Training at University of Texas Southwestern, he moved on to
Fellowship training at the National Institutes of Health. Had the good fortune
to study under Dr. Dean Metcalfe MD, Dr. Melody Carter MD, and some of the other
leading minds in the Laboratory of Mast Cell Biology.
Starting Clinical Practice in 2011, he maintained an
interest in the complexity of cases in Mast Cell Diseases, as well as Primary
Immunodeficiency. Less than a decade from starting his clinic from scratch, it
has become one of the largest and best regarded in Immunology outside of a
University or Medical School. Dr. Lichtenberger's clinic has been awarded
"Center for Excellence" Designation in the treatment of Mast Cell Diseases, and
he is principle investigator in Industry Funded research on pathways to better
diagnose Mastocytosis. He has also presented research nationally on the use of
colchicine to treat side effects of Immunoglobulin treatment, a practice now
adopted Nationally. Also, has published on the identification of repurposed
biomarkers for the identification of fungal gut overgrowth. He has chosen not
to patent any of his original research, to facilitate the adoption of use.
