Searching for Lyme Literate Dr

Hi SrtAL - welcome to our community!

For members' recommendations, it's best if you enable your email option. This is done through "My Profile". We don't post the names of LLMD's - for privacy reasons...we need to protect our Dr.'s

In addition to members recommendations, you can also contact ILADS:

ilads.org/ilads_media/physician-referral/

You can also send me an email - by clicking on the envelope under my screen name at the left.
I will check my list of LLMD"s and send you any I have for the area you are looking.

We encourage our new members to read through the thread at the top of the page titled: "New to Lyme?..Start Here!" It's packed full of useful information.

I understand the llmd not accepting insurances, but why won't they facilitate a lab that is Ilads recommended and that a patience insurance accepts and run the specialized insurance that do to try to save the patient some $$ especially since they know it is going to be a 6 month to a year regiment of doctor visits. We are feeling very frustrated.

Hi SrtAL,
Welcome to our community! I'm so glad you found us.

I​f you haven't ​yet​, it would be helpful for you to start with reading through the thread at the top of the forum titled,"New to Lyme?...Start here!!", as it is packed full of important information, symptom lists, helpful links and pdf's, how to detox when one has these infections, information on probiotics and much more. And, here's another good place to find helpful detoxing routines​​: ​

No matter what kind of doctor you see, most have their own preferences with labs. What lab do the doctors wish to use? It may be a good lab as well. You can also ask them if you have the tests run by that lab, would they accept it - you may be able to find a non-LLMD that will use that lab.
