Patient Reviews
May 10, 2020
I’ve been under Dr Jemsek’s care for past 2 yrs. Before becoming his patient I was ignored &/or misdiagnosed & so severely sick I’d given up hope. I knew Dr Jemsek has been 1 of the 1st MDs to diagnose & treat HIV/AIDS in Charlotte area,& that his patients were his priority. From my research prior to seeing him, he has the highest success rate in treating Lyme/tick/borne diseases. He is not only an excellent ID Specialist, but has more experience than most other ILADS physicians. He is innovative & aggressive in treatment methods,using a working combination of Rx medications & holistic, nutraceutical based supplements to augment. He was my last resort, as I had become completely debilitated after sev bite episodes incompletely /inadequately treated. Testing for Lyme remains highly inaccurate,yet this is often the only criteria used to diagnose in mainstream medicine. Dr Jemsek is thorough,listens carefully. He does careful lab work & other testing to explore additional dysfunctions.
