Cécile Jadin, MD   is a surgeon in South Africa. She has had great success in treating many patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome over the past 9 years. Her interest in CFS/ME stemmed from her recognition that the symptoms are consistent with rickettsial infection, following her father's (Professor JB Jadin) work at the Pasteur Institute. Her book ‘A Disease Called Fatigue’ was published in 2002.
