Can only tell you what I heard from one of his patients. He/she stopped seeing him because of a controversial treatment he prescribed that made him/her worse. The treatment was being pushed by the Rx company and some MDs were getting "favorable" treatment for trying this. The treatment is normally used for cosmetic reasons or migraines, not Infectious Diseases.

This is second hand info.

I felt that his practice swelled after he was featured in the Newsweek article regarding the IVIG treatment. After that, you couldn't get him to return calls or answer questions. I had a MRI and had to wait 2 mos. before he replied. I decided to go elsewhere.

Too Ex$pensive to see him as he doesn't take my insurance. The feedback I got regarding IVIg for chronic Lyme was hit or miss, which didn't justify the expense and logistics for me. Couldn't get a return phone call from him either.
