Hi gracietiger, Welcome to the forum! I am in central CA, but travel up to the bay area to see the same llmd as lhcook. I can give you the names of a couple others in northern CA if you would like. Just email me and ask.
To answer your question about the lyme doc.......Maybe her practice is full and she can no longer take on any more complicated cases like lymers......or maybe her insurance carrier made her stop----or she was sued by a patient's insurance, or a lyme patient....or she practices in a group that will not tolerate her treating lyme (because lyme is so controversial, complicated, risky etc.)
Best wishes.
