I went to see him for about a year and a half. I liked him and found him to be a kind and good person. But I wanted more information about things, especially since I traveled over 600 miles (one way) to see him each time, and found if I didn't ask the right question, I wouldn't get any information. He did get me out of a very bad place with the L.D., for which I am very grateful.
He was convinced I had Babesiosis from the symptoms I described, and I appreciated that he tried different things for that, including Enula, a Peruvian herb, when I couldn't afford the Mepron. Ultimately, though, I felt like I got stuck on a plateau, with no improvement, and he didn't see the need to change anything. So, when I located an LLMD somewhat closer, I decided to switch to that doctor. Hope this is helpful. : )
