Dr. Ghaly will develop a preliminary treatment plan after discussing your medical history, assessing your current symptoms, and reviewing your lab and/or imaging results.
Once you arrive at the Ghaly Center to begin treatment, Dr. Ghaly will utilize a combination of the most advanced procedures available to help you reach your treatment goals.
What is Lyme Disease?
Lyme disease is an illness caused by borrelia bacteria. Humans usually get Lyme disease from the bite of a tick carrying the bacteria.
Ticks that can carry borrelia bacteria live throughout most of the United States. But Lyme disease is most common in the upper Midwest and the northeastern and mid-Atlantic states. It's also common in Europe and in south central and southeastern Canada.
You're at risk of Lyme disease if you spend time where the ticks live, such as grassy, brushy or wooded areas. Taking safety measures in these areas can lower the risk of Lyme disease.
When to see a Doctor?
Most people who get Lyme disease don't remember having a tick bite. And many symptoms of Lyme disease relate to other conditions. See your health care provider if you have Lyme disease symptoms. An early diagnosis and proper treatment can improve outcomes.
