As both clinician and researcher, Dr. DePace offers cutting-edge diagnostics and treatments for patients suffering from autonomic dysfunction or autonomic neuropathy, particularly those misdiagnosed or overlooked elsewhere.
Serving Dysautonomia Patients Across the USA
Our National Autonomic Dysfunction Center receives inquiries and welcomes patients from nearly every state, including:
✅ New Jersey (NJ)

✅ Pennsylvania (PA)
✅ California

Patients often travel to our New Jersey-based autonomic clinic for specialized testing, accurate diagnosis, and advanced treatments — especially when previous therapies have failed or no clear diagnosis has been made.
What Is Autonomic Dysfunction?
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) controls involuntary body functions like heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, and temperature regulation.
When it malfunctions, it leads to dysautonomia, causing symptoms such as:
- Fainting / near-fainting (syncope, presyncope)
- Dizziness, lightheadedness
- Heart palpitations, arrhythmias
- Chronic headaches, migraines
- Digestive issues (gastroparesis, irritable bowel, diarrhea, constipation)
- Chronic fatigue, weakness
- Peripheral neuropathy, numbness, tingling
Many patients are initially misdiagnosed with anxiety or psychological disorders when they actually have underlying autonomic nervous system disorders.
Advanced Diagnostic Approach
At our national autonomic dysfunction clinic, we provide:
✅ Comprehensive clinical evaluations
✅ Expert review of prior records and treatments
✅ Specialized autonomic function testing (including tilt-table testing, heart rate variability, and sweat tests)
✅ Personalized, evidence-based treatment strategies
We aim to identify root causes, not just manage surface symptoms, helping patients reclaim function and quality of life.
Innovative Dysautonomia Treatments
Our treatments include:
- Targeted medications
- Lifestyle and dietary interventions
- Mind-body wellness programs
- Nutritional and supplement protocols based on the latest autonomic and mitochondrial research
While not all patients can achieve complete remission, many report significant improvements in symptoms and daily living.
