I am really sad. I like my LLMD do much. She is moving back east, and won't be seeing Lyme patients.

On the up side, she will be teaching at a medical school, so maybe she can have a positive influence that way.

So sorry you're losing your LLMD but like you, I think she'll probably do more good for Lyme & tick diseases teaching.

Amanda - I just heard about this too. Hope you can find someone else to work with whom you like.

Yankees - If you want a discussion on insurance coverage and LLMDs, including what's going on in NJ, I suggest you post it as a topic in Medical Questions or General Support.

Mine is also leaving his practice. I'm bummed too. Not for insurance issues, though.
