I have been referred to an ID doc in Victoria, DR. E. P. Has anyone seen this guy? There are some very negative reports but would be interested to talk to someone who has actually had an apptment with him.
Thanks - Liz D

Lymetoo - I am VERY wary and my gut instinct is to avoid this guy. And I love Vancouver Island too - its a priviledge to live here !
Robin123, thanks, I have asked at canlyme. I am trying to 'cast my net wide' before making any decisions.
Thanks to you both for responding.

It was ironic that when we went to Victoria, BC we were living in Victoria, TX.

We were like "I'm SURE there are teaching jobs here!" [Big Grin]

Hi Liz. Go to see him with an open mind. He is highly respected by his colleagues. I have heard from a few of his colleagues that I should have gone to see him. I had the misfortune and poor judgement to see the other ID doc that shares his space. He was quite rude and partially handcuffed further treatment for me.

He is apparently an excellent and open minded doctor but that doesn't mean he will treat you. He reportedly has a few Lyme patients but if you've ever used Igenex or seen a non-medical doctor, I wouldn't mention it.
