The website for DoreUSA doesn't indicate that the centers are closed or indeed any financial difficulty. However, according to a message at the Dore Yahoo group, appointments in the US have been "suspended indefinitely".
However, the Hallowell Center in New York (http://www.adhdnewyork.com/) offers the Dore program, but is not financially affiliated with DoreUSA, and will continue to offer it.
According to the Yahoo List, many of the DoreUSA Centers required up-front payment for the complete "treatment". The status of refunds is uncertain. In the UK, "creditors are unlikely to get any refund".
Holford Watch continues its coverage of the MSM response to the Dore collapse.
Hello
I want to clarify the status of the operations of the Dore Centers here in the US as my previous message was too vague. I was attempting to get the notice to you as soon as possible as many of you who were about to take off for your appointments and traveling long distances.
It is very difficult to notify you of the closing of the Dore Centers here in the US . The US operations have been sustained in much the same way as all the other Dore Centers around the world, that being through subsidies from Wynford Dore in the UK .
The apparent mismanagement of the finances and operations of the Centers in Australia were only recently discovered and were such that they could not be overcome. Therefore, Wynford was forced to put the company into reorganization and seek new Investors/Partners. The magnitude reached all the way to the UK and has now reached the US . It came about very quickly over the weekend that their efforts to save the US from being hit were not successful. Therefore, we will not continue selling Dore services nor incurring critical operating expenses until a definitive solution is executed.
As you know, the Dore program provides a solution to more learning issues and to a much greater degree than any other program in the world, so it goes without saying this program will continue to be offered here in the US in some way by someone.
What I can say is that just because there has been some type of financial issue come up, that does NOT change the program. This is a temporary suspension, however, and I have no idea how long it may take to get the Centers back up and running. To get the most up-to-date information, I want to refer you to the Dore US and UK websites at www.doreusa.com and www.dore.co.uk respectively. You can also get info at www.doretalk.com and go to the forums.
Please do not go to your next progress assessment unless you have heard from us. Should you run out of exercises, please go back to the beginning of your notebook and start this set again as they were chosen specifically for you based on your tests and will further reinforce the initial neural processing stimulation targeted during the previous set.
Because many of you have seen such wonderful success on the program so far you may realize how much this program will mean to the millions of other kids and adults struggling every day waiting for Dore to be available to them. Therefore should you have an interest in investing in Dore to assist us in getting back on track and helping us expedite the plan to cover the US please send me an email at your earliest convenience.
