LymeHQ · Provider Connection

Find a Lyme-literate provider

Clinicians whose licence a person here has checked, shown beside everything they told us about themselves — because the difference between those two things is the only thing a directory can honestly offer.

About the state filter: A clinician must generally be licensed in the state where you are physically located, not where their practice is — which is what makes remote care with an out-of-state specialist harder than it looks. Which states a clinician is licensed in is something they tell us, not something we have checked. Treat it as the first question to ask, not as a settled fact.

A badge here means one specific thing: a named person looked at evidence of a licence and recorded that they were satisfied, and that record can be produced. It says nothing about whether a clinician is right for you, and nobody on this platform — verified or not — gives individualised medical advice. How we verify providers sets out the whole process, including what it cannot establish.

Where else to look

This directory is new and short. These are independent organisations, not LymeHQ partners — we receive nothing for sending you to them and we cannot vouch for any individual clinician.

  • ILADS provider referralInternational Lyme and Associated Diseases Society

    A physician-referral search maintained by the professional society for Lyme-literate clinicians. The most direct starting point for most people in the US.

  • LymeDisease.org resourcesLymeDisease.org

    Patient advocacy organisation with provider-finding guidance, regional support groups and current policy news.

  • Your state or regional Lyme associationVaries by location

    Regional associations often keep the most current local knowledge — who is accepting new patients, who takes insurance, and who has a realistic waiting list.

What to ask before you book

A first appointment is often expensive and often months away. These questions are worth asking the front desk before you commit to either.

  • Are you licensed in the state where I live? For remote care this is the binding constraint, not where the practice is based.
  • Do you treat coinfections — Babesia, Bartonella, Ehrlichia — or Lyme only?
  • Do you take insurance, and if not, what does an initial consultation cost? Many Lyme-literate practices are out of network.
  • What is the realistic wait for a first appointment?
  • Will you review outside lab results, and do you work with specialty labs?
  • How do follow-ups work, and can any of them be remote?
If you are acutely unwell, do not wait for a specialist appointment. Lyme-literate providers routinely have long waiting lists, and several tick-borne illnesses get significantly worse over days. See when to seek urgent care.

The directory is free to search and needs no account. Remote care options covers what is and is not possible across state lines.
