Derek,
I went to one in s. Philly and got totally ripped off. He never did any work on my teeth, but instead insisted that he "cured" his mother of Lyme disease and told me he could cure me.
Of course i was very skeptical, but decided to try his very costly supplements which he also tested me for with kinesiology. Even offered me the use of his in house rife machine.
He said he was very familiar with Dr. K. and his protocols. Long story short, I ended up spending over $500.00 on supplements within 2 visits.
When I realized these supplements (although some were good) were in no way going to cure me of Lyme, I insisted on getting my money back after a few choice written words in a letter.
I was seeing myself being taken on a very long costly road. I got back half after I returned the supplements.
Just be careful, because some of these bio dentists although some may be knowledgeable in certain areas cannot cure anyone of Lyme disease.
I think they are frustrated wanna be doctors. Don't mean to dicourage you, just be aware,
Gael

Thanks Gael.
I know Dr. R. in Paoli is the real deal, just wanted to see if I had more options for the area.
I am looking for a dentist to remove my amalgams safely and effectively, not try to "cure" me.
Any dentist that thinks they can cure you of your lyme should be scrutinized thoroughly before proceeding I think.
There is a local dentist in chester county who is very well informed on lyme though so it's all subjective, like most things.
Sorry about your experience, does not sound like fun, glad you got out when you did.
When the word "cure" is thrown around loosely like that, to me, it's a big red flag.
I know 3-4 people who have seen Dr R. and he has done a nice job.
Sounds like he is the best shot for now, just going to cost me a few k. Sounds like they all would though.
Thanks again
Derek
