Naturopathic physician Dr. Emily Maiella will present the latest information on detecting, preventing, and treating lyme disease.

As Lyme disease reaches endemic status in areas of Western MA, it is essential that all lovers of nature, farmers and back-door gardeners become more educated and aware of Lyme disease and other tick-born co-infections.

Dr. Maiella will focus on signs and symptoms of Lyme Disease, tick identification, diagnostic criteria and treatment, both from a conventional and naturopathic medical prospective.

This will be a 60 minute lecture with a 30 minute Q&A.  Let's be prepared for tick season!

Dr. Emily Maiella is a Lyme-literate Naturopathic Physician, practicing in Montague MA.
