Hi! I'm posting for a friend who lives in Westford MA. Her husband keeps getting diagnosed with strange syndromes and she would like to take him to an LLMD. She did get some doctor names from ILADS but can't find any reviews about them. Anyone have a doc they can recommend in the greater Boston area, Burlington, Natick, Lowell, Chelmsford?
Thank you so much!

A great way to find out Lyme patient's experiences with LLMD’s in your area, is to join that area’s Lyme disease support groups. Here are Massachusetts Lyme Supports groups;

https://bcmldsg.wixsite.com/bcmlymesupportgroup/resources

https://www.facebook.com/groups/MALymeDiseaseSupport/

You must research each LLMD referred to you
To do this, google for patients reviews.
Patient referrals are listed on;
Vitals.com
Heathgrades.com
WebMD.com
Yelp

Do your research
Call ahead and ask questions
Be prepared for your LLMD appointment

PM sent for MA.

Contact the MA Lyme Support Groups - maybe they can help. They would know better about MA.
