Northeast Florida Lyme Association

Within these groups across the United States and other countries, there are fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters and so forth. As Dr. Jemsek states, “sooner or later” your family will be affected by this growing disease and you, too, will be trying to make a difference.

The Northeast Florida Lyme Association is a nonprofit 501(3) (c) whose mission is “to improve the prevention, diagnosis, and successful treatment of Lyme and related vector borne disease through education of the public and healthcare providers and support of scientific research.”

This unit offers plenty of professional knowledge and experience that include consulting, marketing, business management, fundraising and community work. Together they are a great combination creating a resolute force. You will read on their website as a group there is a wealth of medical knowledge and technical experience as well acquired through experience and education. They each have very personal reasons in reaching their mission because they are devoted friends, parents, husbands, wives, and advocates striving to make a difference.

As one of the founding board members states: “The challenges of being diagnosed and treated have led her to become a founding member of the NEFLA Board, determined that better information be made available to healthcare professionals and the public about Lyme and related infections.”

“I listened to doctor’s deny Dane’s symptoms and discount his condition. Even with a diagnosis, the path toward recovery was filled with controversy.”

“Mary has dedicated herself to sharing her understanding of the information she has collected with others who are suffering from Lyme in the hope that her experience will help others avoid the struggles and challenges she encountered.”

“Dr. Clark is committed to his research of the ecology and epidemiology of Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseases in the southern U.S. He was the first to report finding Lyme disease spirochetes in animals and ticks in South Carolina, and in wild reptiles in South Carolina and Florida.”
