LLMD - Florida

Need help locating an LLMD anywhere in Florida.
I live in South Florida, but am willing to drive anywhere in the state.
Too expensive to fly regularly to the Northeast for MD visits.
Moreover, they are no longer helpful to me, a chronic, long-term patient (Dx 1987).

Thanks for any info any members or the association can offer.

Peace.

Hi blackhawk1 -

Welcome to the site. I'm sorry you're here but glad you found us.

As multifacetedme suggested please email one of our top mods Traveler or Girlie for a specific list of Lyme specialists in your area to consider. I'm also a mod but not around as consistently but will help however I can.

Here are a few more resources Traveler likes to share:
​
​​Y​​ou can 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:
​​www.lymediseaseassociation.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=277&Itemid=74​

Y​ou can email ​the​ Tick-Borne Disease Alliance at​: [email protected]​

ILADS has their own referral system as well:
​​​ilads.org/ilads_media/physician-referral/

And www.LymeDoc.org

You will want to find an ILADS trained doctor, as ID Docs (Infectious Disease Doctors) as well as many others, 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: www.ilads.org/lyme/treatment-guideline.php

Please don't hesitate to ask any questions that come up!
