Defeating PANS & PANDAS Online Program

Defeating PANS & PANDAS: The Online Course

Empowering Families Facing PANS and PANDAS with Knowledge, Tools, and Strategies for Healing

In addition to writing the physician’s guide to PANS/PANDAS treatment, Dr. Scott and his wife, Dr. Ellen Antoine, also created a comprehensive online course for families facing these challenging disorders. The content in Defeating PANS/PANDAS was guided by one question:

What do we wish we had known as parents of a child with PANS/PANDAS?

The answers are contained in 14 lessons, each with its own videos, guides, and hands-on help. You’ll find out which questions to ask, tests to request, and concrete steps you can take at home to help your child.

And because the Antoines know what it’s like to be on this journey, the Defeating PANS/PANDAS course included thoughtful written resources, designed to break down answers into bite-size pieces you can understand without adding to your overwhelm. 

Every lesson comes with a video, as well as a transcript so you can easily read or take notes later. All course documents are ready for use with your child’s school, extended family, or pediatrician. Course topics include:
