don't know about Norwalk but found Middlesex for MRI & such is lyme knowledgeable.
Example...my brother-in-law went for MRI on brain. Has multiple lesions...report didn't just lable as MS but "that lesions show demylinating disease possibly due to MS, lyme or other demylinating disease.
To me that's important. Too many see lesions and state MS.

hi, if you mean "Norwalk" Hospital in CT, that's where I had my SPECT. I had a horrible experience but not because of the hospital/staff - I reacted severely to the dye.
I also wonder if it had been read correctly and by someone LL as it was basically normal...but that's just my suspicion considering my symptoms and drs' opinions. maybe Norwalk is fine...my llmd did ok it. But if your insurance will cover it, I'd go to Columbia. Sorry if I'm not much help. Good luck!
