Is Lyme Disease Playing Hide-and-go-seek with your Doctor? – Optimum Health Report #384

Lyme disease test. Is lyme disease playing hide-and-go-seek with your doctor

Lyme disease has been called the great masquerader, meaning it can appear to be something else like Lupus, MS, Parkinson’s, Chronic Fatigue, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and others.  Most traditional physicians either misdiagnose it or treat it with long term antibiotics which are rarely successful.

About half of our patients come from out of town to be treated at LifeWorks for Lyme because treatment at other places has failed.Our success rate is very high. Just this week a patient wrote this to us:

“Before coming to LifeWorks, I had pretty much given up hope on ever feeling better or going back to work.  One of my major symptoms was hair loss and no other doctors had any answers or help. A friend told me about Dr. Minkoff and he really helped get to the root of all my symptoms and treat my Lyme disease. The non antibiotic protocol made a big difference and I knew it when I noticed my hair growing back.My hair also grew back healthier. My brain fog has gone away, I can sleep better and overall feel much better than I thought I would again!Thanks to Dr. Minkoff and everyone at LifeWorks!”

Don’t waste your time or money with treatments that will not work. Come to us and receive our proven successful methods. We are not perfect, but you will not find better care anywhere.  I can guarantee that. Call now for an appointment. Have a great week,
Dr. David I Minkoff, MD

About Dr. David Minkoff, Medical Director

Dr. David Minkoff graduated from the University of Wisconsin Medical School in 1974 and was elected to the “Phi Beta Kappa” of medical schools, the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honors Medical Fraternity for very high academic achievement. He then completed both a Pediatric Residency and a Fellowship in Infectious Disease at the University of California at San Diego. He worked at the University of California and Children’s Hospitals in San Diego as an attending physician in infectious disease while conducting original research on Ribaviron, a broad spectrum anti-viral agent to fight disease. He also co-directed a neo-natal intensive care unit and worked in emergency medicine. In 1992, Dr. Minkoff’s wife Sue, a Registered Nurse, became interested in nutrition and health and began to go to lectures from some of the experts in the field. At the time, Dr. Minkoff was pretty fixed in his view of traditional medicine and it took a lot of convincing to get him to come to one of these lectures. After hearing Dr. Jeffrey Bland speak, Dr. Minkoff had a eureka moment and began pursuing the alternative field with a vengeance. Based on this new knowledge Dr. Minkoff and his wife set up a small clinic in 1997 to help some friends with their medical problems. What began as an experiment blossomed into Lifeworks Wellness Center, one of the most successful clinics for complementary medicine in the United States. In the process, he gained expertise in Biological medicine, integrative oncology, heavy metal detoxification, anti-aging medicine, hormone replacement therapy, functional medicine, energy medicine, neural and prolotherapy, homeopathy, and optimum nutrition. He studied under the masters in each of these disciplines until he became an expert in his own right. Dr. Minkoff is one of the most in-demand speakers in the field and wrote an Amazon best-selling book called The Search For The Perfect Protein. The demand for the products and protocols he discovered became a catalyst for founding BodyHealth.Com, a nutrition company that now manufactures and distributes cutting-edge nutritional solutions for the many health problems of today. Dr. Minkoff writes two free online newsletters, “The Optimum Health Report” and ”The BodyHealth Fitness Newsletter”, to help others learn about optimum health and fitness. Dr. Minkoff is an avid athlete himself and has completed 43 Ironman Triathlons. To keep his fitness maximal, he lives the lifestyle he teaches to others and tries to set an example for others, so they can enjoy a life free of pain and full of energy.
