Re: Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker
Posted by IanChristopher on 3/29/04
Hi there, I recently came across a web page that had a couple of sound samples of Dr. Shoemaker explaining his treatment for lyme disease, but there was no information on how to contact him or anything. I was wondering if you could tell me a phone number or an address or a web site or something where I could contact his office. I live all the way in Washington state, but I would still like to get tested for neurotoxins. I suspect that I may have gotten lyme disease about three and a half years ago and have suffered a severe chronic health condition ever since with all the classic symptoms of chronic lyme. If you could give me any information I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
