I was there 16 weeks for Chronic Lyme treatment, spent over $70,000 and saw very little improvement. He put me on 8 different medications (that I was NOT on before going there) one being Xanax, which I am now addicted to and can't get off of, even though I said I didn't want to go on it, because I knew it was addictive and he promised he would detox me off before I left. He also had me on 95 pills a day between meds/supplements along with IV's 5 days a week. He was giving me Vancomycin through a peripheral vein and I developed blood clots in my arms.....I found out after the fact that you shouldn't give Vanco through a peripheral vein, because it's so acidic and known to damage veins. A nurse also pushed IV Benadryl on me so fast one day that I went extremely tachycardic and got horrendous chest pain and spasms. After that happened, I told the nurse at my weekly apt (Amy) who by the way, really isn't an RN, and she said "oh, Benadryl should never be pushed that quickly.....it could have put you into cardiac arrest....sorry about that, we'll talk to the nurse." And at the end of all of this, once you are gone, they want nothing to do with you, because you aren't paying them thousands of dollars per week anymore. I am now way worse off after finally letting my body "settle and heal" (their words) and completely broke, as my insurance company didn't cover a penny of treatment. Oh and after I left, a sweet girl name Anna Burgess DIED under his care!! Truly heartbreaking and her parents are filing a medical malpractice suit.

PLEASE RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN AWAY FROM THIS DOCTOR, HE WILL TAKE ALL OF YOUR MONEY AND LEAVE YOU NO BETTER.....OR IN MOST CASES, WORSE!!!
