Speaker Meeting – Unmasking Stealth Infections – The Bartonella Immunoblot with Dr. Joseph Burrascano

We are honored to present renowned physician and clinical researcher in the field of tick-borne diseases, Dr. Joseph Burrascano, MD. With over three decades of experience in this field, he continues to affect change through his writings, education initiatives and work with companies involved in diagnostic and treatment options for tick-borne diseases.

Bartonella commonly co-infects Lyme patients but has been notoriously difficult to diagnose with lab tests. The newly developed Bartonella Immunoblot is proven to be the most accurate serological test available and can also identify, in most cases, which species are causing the infection. This is especially important in chronic Lyme because it is believed that many may be harboring a previously hidden Bartonella infection.
