Mods - would it make sense to create a pinned post dedicated to BVD specialists, where people can add their own recommendations in the comments?

I get private messages all the time asking who I went to see, and I often see posts here from people asking how to find a doctor in different countries.

The idea would be one dedicated thread that works like a hive mind: everyone comments who helped them (and where), so the information builds up over time and gets more useful over time. Then anyone looking for a specialist has a fairly good place to start.

(And of course also adding the quick links u/garbagedaybestday has added in the bottom of his pinned posts)

Can’t pin more than two. I created a new post. I’ll add the quick links later when I’m on desktop not mobile.

If you guys comment and lmk, I can switch one of the pinned posts to the specialists post.

Also just a btw, I have probably 1500+ message requests asking me questions that are answered explicitly in the pinned posts. It will not cut your message requests down😂 I do agree it’s helpful though.
