Here are some reviews we have received from doctors who participated in our program

Ann F. Corson, MD
2009 Physicians Training Program Impact Award Recipient

“I entered the Program because I sought to learn more about the disease that was killing my only child. After starting my own practice taking care of tick borne disease (TBD) patients, I wanted to learn from the founding fathers of Lyme disease about the clinical evaluation and management of TBDs.

Everything I learned in those three weeks was important. Every tidbit of clinical knowledge has been invaluable to me on a daily basis. A huge amount of the global scientific knowledge supporting ILADS' viewpoint continues to amass at an extraordinary rate weekly. I use the knowledge acquired from my participation in TTC's PTP daily in the treatment of my TBD patients.

I have practiced primary care medicine in Emergency Medicine, Occupational Medicine and Family Medicine for over 27 years. After receiving a BA in Biology from Franklin and Marshall College, I was a PhD candidate in the Department of Anatomy at the Milton S. Hershey School of Medicine of the Penn State University. In 1982 I received my MD degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and have been Board Certified in Family Medicine since 1990.”

“...there are probably millions of people who suffer from chronic illness who are sent home untreated by physicians.”

“The fact that a patient at long last comes into the care of a doctor who can make a diagnosis of their illness and give them real hope of a cure, or at least an improvement, is healing in and of itself.”

“I want to thank ILADS greatly for providing me with this opportunity for training and am anxious to evaluate many patients that are already under my care, but still suffering a variety of symptoms as well as to receive referrals of new patients from ILADS.”

“My 5 day training with Joseph Jemsek, MD was amongst the best experience I have had over the last 23 years as an alternative medicine practitioner.”

“My index of suspicion for Lyme and related diseases is much higher and I have already began both more thorough testing and more aggressive treatment on a number of patients.”

Cool Springs Family Medicine, TN

“As a result of my experience...I certainly feel more comfortable in diagnosing and treating Lyme disease and its co-infections, and I hope that this can translate into better health for my patients.”

“I expect to use...many of the treatment options that we discussed to help me better understand and treat my patient’s condition, and I am very grateful to Dr. Harris, Yvonne [his Physician Assistant] and ILADS for giving me the opportunity to better serve them.”

Heather Swallow, MD

“I feel that I got a good amount of information in order to start treating Lyme disease effectively. The highlights for me were learning about alternative therapies and more about detoxification as well as sitting in with patients, seeing how much better they are doing from treatment.”
