I'm a little confused... it sounds like you went to Brussels and stayed for a few months, maybe longer, to see KDM and your daughter only received saline IVs as treatment?
The first time we were there for a few days. The second time we rented an apartment thinking to stay longer. Of course we had appointments. His secretary, the one I had dealings with was a wonderful person. I never had trouble with any staff,they were very kind.
Who do you mean? Steven Harris, MD in Redwood City, California?
Well, at first he gave the ME confirmation. But later he was testing his patients for Lyme and a vast majority had positive from his testing, or low positive. My daughter was now in this category too. The doctor even told us he was learning about Lyme treatment.
Please understand, I never had any friction or antipathy for him. I tried hard to work with him. But my daughter's complex situation didn't seem to interest him
Who did your daughter see? A PA (physician assistant)? There's an Yvonne Lin Sorenson listed as working at Dr. Harris' clinic. The website for the clinic (
Pacific Frontier Medical) makes it sound like Ms Sorenson practices independently, a practice which I find very odd as a physician, as PAs have less medical training than nurses.
Yes, I believe it was Yvonne, a very nice lady. But I had made an appointment with Harris. My daughter is very sick, and barely mobile at the best of times. I did not fly across the continent for this. Not serious.
When (how long ago) did you see KDM? I wonder why he would refer you to a doctor in California (unless it some other Harris) when he treats Lyme himself? You don't say from what part of Canada you come - was Harris the closest LLMD for you?
We were there in 2011. We stayed with him for I guess 2 years. The distance didn't help.
What disturbed me was when my daughter was very crashed and on her back day after day, his intervention was not what it should have been. I know he has seen this before, but she needed more help to try and get her a bit better. The lab technician was very kind too. I will never forget him. I have no complaint about the clinic staff, just the October seemed uninterested in the case.
I don't mean to grill you, I just find this whole thing very odd and disturbing.
