I agree with Sarah on this one - clinics almost always only get you started into treatments, then you have to see a LLMD or LLND anyway to continue the treatments for any hope of healing.
I would suggest that you find a good LLMD or LLND in your area (or somewhere you are willing to travel to) and invest in her healing in that way. I think you will get a lot more "bang for your buck" by doing it that way.
Now, after taking a look at their site:
No matter how many Lyme patients they claim they have treated - how many have they
healed?
There are many self proclaimed LLMD's out there - don't trust them. If they are not ILADS (International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society) trained - they aren't worth the money.
And this is a clue: "I went to a leading edge lecture by an LLMD from Missouri (that means Lyme literate medical doctor, the term given to docs who are savvy to Lyme disease by those who suffer with Lyme" - because that's NOT true. Those doctors that
earn that title have had ILADS training- it's not a title bestowed by patients.
So that alone makes me say no way!!!! What I see on that site is that they are using scare tactics and celebrities stories to get people to go there.
For information on finding an ILADS (International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society) trained Lyme Literate Medical Doctor(LLMD) in your area, you will need to enable your email option in your profile in order to receive any recommendations, as we don't allow doctor's names and contact info to be posted on the forum for several reasons. You can enable your email option in your profile, under 'edit profile'. Be sure to click the submit button to actually save your preference.
You can send me an email by clicking on my screen name or the small blue envelope under my screen name. I may have contact information for some LLMD's in your area as well. Please include your state and area that you would like to find a LLMD in and I will see how close I can get to your
location.
You can start a new thread titled something like "Looking for LLMD in the
(insert the nearest larger city & state) area". Members can email you about
the LLMD's that they see in that area if you have your email enabled. We don't allow doctors names to be posted though.
You can also email the Tick-Borne Disease Alliance at[url]
[email protected] for LLMD referrals and you can go to
tbdalliance.org to learn more about
these infections.
You can also go to The Lyme Disease Association and search for LLMD's 3 times in a month. You have to register first. Here is the link:

You will want to find an ILADS (International Lyme And Associated Diseases Society) trained doctor, as ID Docs (Infectious Disease Doctors) believe Lyme is hard to catch and easy to treat, and don't believe in the reality of chronic Lyme. Go to the ILADS site to read the new (2014) Treatment guidelines to get you started on your healing journey:
http://www.ilads.org/lyme/treatment-guideline.php If 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.
