In today’s podcast, we start to explore Lyme disease in children. Sarah welcomes her father, Dr. Ted Cormode, to the podcast. He understands Lyme disease both as a pediatrician and as a parent supporting and advocating for his child. Dr. Cormode talks about his experience as a parent when Sarah first became ill. In medical school, he did not learn about Lyme disease so he spent the next years digging deeper into medical research.
Sarah speaks with Dr. Bruce Hoffman about Functional Medicine and the numerous factors that influence a patient’s health. He highlights the importance of taking an in-depth patient history to understand and document symptoms.
