I live in Texas but I will go wherever I need to for a LL psychiatrist for my 11 year old daughter.
I know about Dr. B in NJ, Dr. S in PA. Does anyone have experience with either of them? Any other options?
My daughter has a psychiatrist here but he is at the end of his experience in prescribing for her severe OCD. I'm hoping someone with experience with Lyme has more to offer.

I also know about him, if he is the one who is now in NYC. It appears that he also uses abx. My daughter is seeing Dr. J so it seems like it might not work to see both of them.
What do you think? Dr. J is supposed to be the best but it would be nice to have only one Lyme dr., especially since we have to travel.

Although this is still great site to read, I just looked at that site and here's what she has about referrals:

i saw dr S in PA. a little scattered and quirky but arne't well all...
i liked her. she gave my LLMD a kick in the butt. she's understanding and like so educate. she pointed me to resources and explained things. its helpful wth her to come in with starter quesitons to give her... i was there and there was a poor girl who had just flwin in from michigan.
i have a regular psychiatrist now whose great and she felt i didnt needed two on my team, so she backed out.
