I used the search recommended by this website a week or so ago and came up with a Dr. in grand rapids michigan that is "close" to me.
Has anyone had any experience with this dr or know who he is? or how he is?
thanks

I haven't heard of an LLMD there. Be wary.
Who gave you the name?

Sorry Mommy! I do not have an LLMD in Grand Rapids. Where did you get this name?
You can sent me a private message and I will see what I can find out.

also try this!
Please go to SUPPORT GROUPS, left-hand side column by state. CALL the nearest group leader for advise. Do NOT email; many are too sick to reply; thanks!
People seeking doctors in certain states might be able to get help from their state online information and support group. Over 1500 people belong to these state groups. Many of the groups are small but quite a few have 20 or more people on them.
Type your state name and lyme as one word, e.g. newyorklyme
For SC, SD, ND and WY, put a hyphen between the statename and lyme, e.g. northdakota-lyme
The groups are moderated so you have to apply, and we don't allow doctor names, but once on the group, you can ask for doctors in a certain area and ask people to email you privately.

I have heard he was NOT a LLMD and tends to drop patients.

Yes I have heard of him. I was scheduled to see him, but he had heart valve surgery the day
before I was to see him. It was heartbreaking! I did see his physicians assistant that knows a
lot about lyme and they did all the right tests. I am going back there on Tues. They have a lot of
people coming in from out of town. When I arrived one of their receptionists said...We are
glad you made it here. They spent 2-1/2 hours with me. She has lyme and told my parents that if it is lyme they will catch it there.
