Run, she is trying to prey upon people that are desperate to get better. I was charged $680 for my first appt. and made to sign 21 pages of documents that basically absolve her of anything if something goes awry. I should have read the reviews before I even sent them any money. Once I called to cancel my appt., she did not refund any of my money saying it was too late. This is a money grab, unless you have unlimited money and years to spend on tests and treatments. read more

Just the most unprofessional experience; such a rude and aggressive front desk person Makala and $600 for no treatment plan. Prepare for years of $300 visits that are unprofessional with no clear plan. read more

Dr. Marra helped me get properly diagnosed and successfully treated several tick borne illnesses. I had gone 16 years without proper diagnosis even though I went to the doctor with the tick still imbedded in me 16 years earlier. She saved me from misery and financial ruin. She runs tests and looks deeper into your overall health more than any other doctor I have every seen. If you are struggling with complex health issues I would encourage you to see her as soon as possible. I am forever grateful for her help and thankful that she is there when people need her. read more

I've been a patient of Dr Marra's since Nov of '24., was diagnosed with lyme or chronic lyme or post infectious lyme or whatever back in 2009. However my lyme literate physician retired in september of '24. I was bit by a tic in 2000 it took 9yrs to get diagnosed. Then in September I tested positive once again. Dr Marra was the only physician that my prior Dr said that she felt was competent enough in western washington, the other dr referrals were back east or San Francisco or Los Angelas. I have not been disappointed, Dr Marra is extremly knowledgeable regarding tic borne illnesses and easily conveys this and makes you feel at ease knowing that she knows what she is doing versus the MD's out practicing in the community who would rather shove us out the door and lable us as "head cases" since that fits their 10minute patient counseling timeframe. Or their IDSA BS guideline, neverminding the CDC guidlines for lyme. read more

I could not recommend Dr. Marra enough, and I do recommend her often. I have dealt with two separate Lyme diagnoses and she got me into remission with my first bite and I'm on my way for the second infection. She is thorough in her evaluations and recommendations. I have never had a doctor like her before. She fights just as hard to beat this illness as her patients do. I'll forever be grateful for her. In my opinion she is one of the best, if not the best, Lyme doctor on the West Coast. read more

Quack. Spent $2k in one a hour and we got nothing in return. I felt the whole appointment was a joke. We were rushed in and out and forced to buy all these supplements - $2,000 later. My son didn't feel any different for even 1 day. Susan Marra also had her untrained dog in our appointment and it was was running around the entire time. She was training the dog during half our visit and looking back, I should have left when I walked in the door. People with lyme disease are so desperate to get help to feel better and their lives back they get completely taken advantage. She also ordered tons of blood work that we had to pay out of pocket - many of these tests were already taken by the infectious disease doctor and she didn't even take the time to review all the paperwork we gave her. She should have checked to make sure these were not repeat tests. read more

Dr. Marra is saving the lives of my family. No joke. To address the people leaving critical comments: perhaps you have not seen enough physicians who claim to treat vector-borne diseases to really give accurate feedback about Dr. Marra? Her practice manager, Linda, is wonderful. She is compassionate, extremely knowledgeable, amazingly efficient, and an all-around great person. If you are like most people suffering from tick-borne diseases, you would be coming to Dr. Marra near the end of your journey to find out what is wrong with you. This usually occurs after seeing roughly 7-12 other doctors over the course of 2-4 years, enduring multiple (incorrect) diagnoses, painful, costly, and ineffective treatments, and, in many cases, eventually being told you are crazy and making it all up. UNTIL YOU REACH THIS POINT, you will NEVER understand the lifesaving value of Dr. Marra's work. Regarding out-of-pocket costs: watch the documentaries "Under Our Skin" (there are two). It will explain why doctors such as Dr. Marra who LEGITIMATELY heal people from Lyme and other vector-borne infections are unable to work with insurance companies, hence the lack of copays and paying full price for treatment. It is NOT these doctors' decision to do this; they have no choice if you want to stay alive. Watch the movies and you'll see. Regarding supplements & vitamins: again, if you want to properly treat these infections, your body needs to be working at the OPTIMAL level to be strong enough to fight the battle. This means lots of support (in the way of supplements and vitamins) to build your body's immune and detoxification systems back up to par. If you don't want to get better, don't take them. Here is the bottom line: unfortunately, there are too many ignorant doctors out there who are clueless about these infections. There are also too many ignorant snake oil salesmen who capitalize on sick people's desperation. Do not blame Dr. Marra for this. She is the real deal and will help save your life if you allow her to. read more

Dr. Marra is literally a life saver! After going undiagnosed and being told over and over again there was nothing wrong, I was almost completely disabled. Dr. Marra brought me back to the land of the living. I had multiple infections and could barely function, but I am now a functioning happy person again. Lyme disease is such a debilitating illness and most doctors don't even believe it exists. Dr. Marra has the expertise and knowledge to diagnose and know how to treat Lyme and all the co-infections. I feel fortunate to have found her! read more

I don't know how good Dr. Susan really is, I hope she is really worth the hassle. But their customer service is pathetic, even from the pre-screening I was a bit hesitant to schedule an appointment. All they talked about was how much they charge and all the possible work that I was going to need to get me started. Sounded to me like a bunch of money grabbers. Anyhow, I couldn't make it to my appointment so I called to cancel and right off the bat I got charged $200, even though I called within the time frame ((three days in advance but they don't count weekends)) but because I did it a minute before closing, none answered so I left a message. The next day I called to confirm they got my message, the receptionist was rude and told me that they were going to proceed with the charges anyways because leaving messages for a cancellation did not count. I explained to her my situation (suffice to say that issues at work came up that made extremely difficult to keep my schedule clear), she just didn't care. It was clear to me all they wanted was an excuse to take my money. Conclusion: very unreasonable and unethical customer service skills. Maybe it was cheaper to lose the $200 instead of $20,000-$30,000 with no results. Anyways, I will not be using Dr. Susan Marra services ever. read more

Last year, I was barely making it through days, was worried about losing my job... I was just about as sick as it comes. Over the years, I had been diagnosed with: migraines, arthritis, carpal tunnel, multiple sclerosis, hashimoto's, sudden sensioneural hearing loss, vestibular disorder, TMJD, anxiety disorder, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia and more. When I got 9 new diagnoses in one year visiting other doctors I said NO WAY. No one is that unlucky and I asked my ND for an Igenex Lyme test. Once I tested positive, I went straight to Dr. Marra for treatment. I'd heard she'd gotten a friend of a friend well from Lyme years ago. Dr. Marra has been a godsend. Mind you, this is not your average doctor visit. First of all, her office is informal and visits include puppy kisses. You'll pay out of pocket for your visit, but I've had good luck with insurance reimbursement. Dr. Marra herself is very direct and blunt... her style isn't for the faint of heart. But HOLY MOLY does that woman know Lyme disease. She treats aggressively, but not recklessly. I frequently push my comfort zone, and the early months of treatment were difficult (this is normal, this is expected). She gingerly stepped me up onto all the necessary treatments, and she really responded awesomely whenever I called with concerns. I really hit my stride in months 4 and 5 of treatment. I'm 7 months into treatment now and I'd say I'm about 75% of the way better. She has balanced my medications and supplements beautifully - I have had no liver or kidney problems (we watch those closely) and ZERO gastrointestinal problems. Impressive!! It takes a lot of work to get well from Lyme, and unfortunately treatment is expensive. But I'm living proof that if you follow instructions (meds, diet, detox), if you are diligent about the treatment protocol Dr. Marra provides, you CAN get your life back. Today I'm working more than full time at Microsoft, socializing regularly, sleeping through the night and living most days pretty darn close to normal. I know I'll make it the rest of the way with Dr. Marra's guidance. I'll update this review when I reach remission. Best of luck Lyme fighters!! read more

My name is Nancy S. and I have Chronic Lyme Disease with several co-infections. I have been seeing Dr. Marra for eleven years. I have come a long way to health under the expert care and guidance of Dr. Marra. I can't even imagine where I would be in this disease if it weren't for her. I am doing amazing and enjoying life. If you want expert care and treatment; choose Dr. Marra for your healthcare. Dr. Marra is also working with area Scientists to find a cure for Lyme disease! THANK YOU Dr. Marra! read more

Dr. Marra uses natural vitamins, herbs and supplements along with antibiotics to cure Lyme disease. I am way beyond thankful for her guidance, understanding and patience with my children and me. She is a great healthcare provider. If you follow her recommendations, you will get better. Thank you, Dr. Marra!!! read more

When I first met Dr. Marra in January 2014, I had just turned 31 and I had spent the last 2 years bed-ridden, going to a parade of over 22 specialists, none of whom could figure out what was wrong. After a thorough exam & clinical history, Dr. Marra looked at my mom and me and said, "I know what's wrong, and I can help you" and that's exactly what she has done. Most doctors are not Lyme literate, but Dr. Marra is and she knows how to treat it. The treatment isn't hard because she tells you exactly what to do and if you do what she says, you WILL get better. That said, treatment is not fun. Switching to a gluten free, dairy free & refined sugar free diet was a challenge because those were my favorite food groups and having to choke down dozens of pills per day and then suffer through the herxes was miserable. There were lots of times I wanted to give up, but I had lots of support from Dr. Marra, my family & friends so I kept pushing and a little over 2.5 years later, she's pulled me back from death's door, and I'm now able to walk my dog everyday, do yoga 2x/week and I've been cleared to work part time - something I once feared would never be possible again. I can't stress enough though that you need to follow the doctor's advice even if it sucks. I miss cookies & pizza but giving them up was absolutely worth being healthy again. If you're not prepared to sacrifice & make changes for your health, you won't get better no matter what she or any other doctor does. Dr. Marra's office manager, Linda, is just as wonderful. She's a fabulous balance of no-nonsense & compassion that allows her to be both helpful & efficient. Linda is so on top of things & helpful which was invaluable to me during my recovery. When you're sick & struggling to make it through the day, the last thing you want to spend energy on is trying to make sure tests have been ordered, medication has been filled, etc and with Linda in charge, you never have to worry about any of that. She's a phenomenal complement to Dr. Marra. Dr. Marra saved my life and my family, friends & I will be forever grateful to her. If you have Lyme or you're sick & you're not sure why, please go to her. I truly believe she is an unorthodox genius who thinks outside the box and listens to patients which is why she is able to do the amazing work she does. read more

My own story is like many who have Lyme. Visits to countless Doctors only to be told I have fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, depression, MS, Lupus and asthma. For me, I knew none of those added up. I was finally told that it was all in my head. "You have a family, you are healthy, you work full time, are you lacking attention?" That is the final question I was asked before leaving that office and firing him as my Doctor for good. It has taken a tough few years of pain and symptom flare-ups but I am thankful to have found Dr. Marra in Seattle. She has saved my life and my daughter's life. My little girl was born with Lyme and one co-infection and had a rough start and hard first two years of her life. Multiple health issues, seizures and pain that she was not able to express until she started talking. She turns four on July 30th and with the right treatment and long term antibiotics the improvement in in the time she has been under Dr. Marra's care is incredible. There is also a great debate about the actual passing of Lyme through the placenta. Many say it's impossible but my daughter is proof that it can happen and that is very scary. Her primary doctor even said it was impossible. A "1 in a million chance" we were told. To us she is very special and we know she will do big things in her life and overcome Lyme is one of them. We need continued education of all medical Doctors and Nurses about the array of Lyme symptoms and its related infections in order to increase the number of health care providers who can recognize these illnesses before it's too late to treat. The more time that passes between bite and diagnosis the harder it will be to treat. Dr. Marra takes the time to get to know you. How many doctors do you know set aside a two hour time slot just to get to know you. She is able to ask the right questions to understand how best to treat. She treats my daughter with respect and that is a big deal to a four year old. My daughter sits on her lap during her check-up while she asks her questions about how she feels. Again, how many doctors do you know that do that. Most just ask the parents and don't even look at the child. When the AIDS epidemic came to light, activists screamed for attention to get testing and medical care. I hope Lyme patients will stand up and fight to get awareness out there. We need better testing, better treatment and more educated health professionals like Dr. Marra. read more

She got me my life back... and then some. Years ago I was a wreck. I came in to her office with a pretty good case of Bell's palsy after about a year of other goofy and undefined medical gunk. She took 1 look at me and said "yep, ok here is what we are gonna do." After lots of tests, pokes, pills, "potions" and such, I am happy to report with her help and the help of other doctors in California, Mississippi, Colorado, she is by far the most thoughtful, forthright and fearless. If you are only willing to go to her for 1 or 2 appointments then you are looking for the wrong approach to battling such a complicated disease. Make no mistake, this disease is a fight, this is not easy, it takes a tough patient and an even tougher Dr. I am proud to be a patient Alumni. I would never wish this affliction on anyone, but if you have to go down this path, she is the one I would choose to walk with a loved one. read more

Awful and very strange place. I need help and I got bills, bills, fees, charges, etc. I was treated poorly by the doctor and her very rude receptionist. I needed empathy and help, and I instead got treated rude and like I was bothering them. The doctor is really strange, but the lady that handles the phones and reception was really awful and mean. I think her name is Lynn or Linda? There are so many better options and I went there because she specializes in Lyme and I need help. I will look anywhere else going forward. I refuse to be treated so poorly and then left with thousands of dollars in bills and supplements. A note to the front desk lady, please treat people with kindness and respect, your attitude makes things so much worse. read more

I crawled to Dr. Marra in November 2013. I took all of her suggestions (i.e. Diet and Supplements) and I feel that when I started doing it, I was truly on a path to healing. My quality of life improved while undergoing treatment for Lyme and Bartonella. My skin completely cleared (probably due to the sugar-free diet) and I am told that I look great. My body has already changed so much after only 6 months and I look forward to continuing to be under her care. One of the happiest things I experienced on her protocol was the ability to have a couple of days of good exercise which I deeply missed. My family recognizes the changes, too. Everything she says resonates with me and I am very grateful to have found her. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Marra's for over 3 years. I have been sick for nearly 10 years, and have been to countless doctors, had numerous tests, and been through numerous treatment protocols over the years to no avail. Dr. Marra has been a Godsend. It wasn't until I began working with Dr. Marra, that my health improved dramatically, so much so, that I am nearly 100% again. Dr. Marra takes the time to listen to her patients, and formulate a treatment protocol specifically tailored to your needs. Dr. Marra keeps up with the latest research and treatment protocols, and regularly consults with other experts in her field. Dr. Marra is professional, honest, innovative, and passionate about helping her patients on their path to healing. I highly recommend Dr. Marra. read more

My first visit with Dr Marra started out with her coming out to my car to tell me she had to run home and let her dog out. Was I surprised? Yes. Unconventional? Yes. But after the way I was treated at the high profile hospitals like Swedish and the U.W. I was wiling to give this a chance. So many doors had been closed in my face. So many doctors who never looked beyond their text books from med school and who couldn't test for or treat Lyme Disease on a bet. When the puzzle doesn't fit together their only recourse is, "it must be in your head." I was an aerobic instructor and competitive body builder for many years and took my health very seriously and made the sacrifices necessary to ensure good health, never smoked, never had a drink, never took drugs, ate right and exercised religiously. But my health changed dramatically after a tick took up residence on my shoulder for 5 days before I realized what was making me so sick. I had it surgically removed at the ER and even asked to keep the tick just in case. But even when I'd present that info, every conventional doctor poo-pooed the idea of Lyme and wouldn't even test me! My symptoms were neurological. I was off balance and felt like I was going to lose consciousness a lot. I could no longer exercise! I went through every neurological/balance test imaginable despite being told by a UW physician that I was "wasting his time!" But no one had any answers. But I wasn't willing to accept defeat and knew if I could just find that doctor who knew how to treat this disabling disease and believed in my determination to get well, I knew I could regain my health. And Dr. Marra was and is that remarkably dedicated, brilliant, caring professional who is giving me my life back. Her energy is directed toward helping those of us who are suffering the devastating effects of Lyme. Her determination is unmatched by any health care professional I've ever met. It's a tough damn disease that isn't cured with 2 weeks of antibiotics and each case presents itself differently. She takes the time to listen and get to know each person individually because she treats each person individually. It's not an easy one-size-fits-all answer. When I sit across the table from Dr. Marra I am confident that she sincerely wants me to get well as badly as I want to get well and will do whatever it takes to get me there. It's been a long process, but I am happy to report that I am approaching that light at the end of the tunnel and my health is almost back to normal. And it's all because of Dr. Marra's efforts. She is a caring, dedicated professional that I am proud to call my doctor and my friend. I owe her my life. read more

To say that Dr. Marra saved my life may sound cliché, or like an exaggeration, but there is no other way to explain how she has helped me with Lyme and tick-borne disease. When I came to her 3 years ago I was so ill that down deep I really thought there was nothing anyone could do for me after 30 years of this illness being allowed to progress to the point of being disabled--and disabled to the point that even getting out of the house and to her office once a month seemed insurmountable. Like many with Lyme disease, my story is long and complicated. Over the years I'd seen 40 other doctors--many "experts" in their field--who could not get to the root of my problem, nor did they want to deal with the litany of symptoms I'd accumulated along the way. Everything from depression, to Fibromyalgia, to Lupus and MS (to name a few), had been tossed around but with no definitive answers or treatments. But Dr. Marra never gave up on me, and in fact gave me hope in extremely hopeless times. Dr. Marra has the expertise to deal with this complicated illness, but more important, she treats the person, not just the disease. She is also always on top of the latest research; oftentimes I hear of something "new" from friends, that, thanks to Dr. Marra, I am already familiar with. I also find it tremendously valuable that with her science degree she has a deeper understanding of the research and treatments out there and knows how to tailor my protocol accordingly. She just has a wealth of knowledge, experience, and common sense, and will use everything in her arsenal to figure out the problem at hand. I cannot recommend her enough--of course for tick-borne disease, but also as a general doctor, who will actually listen to you, take you seriously, and work to find the answers to make you well again. read more

I came to Dr. Marra VERY sick in November 2014. I had been living with Lyme for 4 years unknowingly. Each year I got sicker and sicker, I visited many doctors who tried to tell me I had everything under the sun, to nothing at all..it was all in my head. Anyway, I finally figured it out and got appropriate testing done, and found Marra. I am a year and 1 month into treatment and doing FANTASTIC! Every month I get better and better. I am fully confident that Marra will get me to optimal health. She is aggressive in her approach and uses high therapeutic dosages of antibiotics, which I am lucky enough to tolerate. She has a spunky attitude that I enjoy, she's blunt and does not sugar-coat anything, she has a knack for knowing what meds to use, but most importantly she knows what she is doing! I am not going to be one of those Lyme patients who don't get better, I'm 85% there! read more

Dr. Marra is amazing! Knows her stuff & has been a huge help on my path back to health.

Results! When I first started seeing Dr Marra, I could walk, but very slowly and carefully. It was really hard to take care of myself, and I was not able to work. In the morning, I would get up and take a shower, then have to lay down to rest before I could get enough energy to put my clothes on. I remember thinking how far away the kitchen was when I got hungry. Washing one load of laundry, folding it and putting it away was an accomplishment. I have been seeing Dr Marra for a two years now. My progress has been steady in a positive direction. She has worked diligently to identify and treat my tick borne diseases. She has tailored medicines to my needs, and monitored my progress and my body systems carefully. I am back to work now, and can take care of myself and others. I even do fun things!. This week I made a snowman with my granddaughter. If I had not found Dr Marra, I think I would be in a wheelchair. And I know I would not be able to work. I am so grateful to have my life back. read more

Unless you are willing to shell out $30,000-$40,000/year (I sat down and did the math) for a somewhat dated protocol, the simple truth is that many of you will not be able to afford this ND. No, you are NOT missing out on the best care money can afford. Keeping looking. I know what you're going through, but there is absolutely no need to drive yourself into financial duress. Dr. Marra is very knowledgable on the subject of Lyme, but there are others out there that can and will help you that have equal knowledge and capabilities. If you're being coerced into spending this kind of money, why not travel back east where this disease is better understood and there are more (and safer) options for treatment? Believe it or not, it was cheaper. I know....I did it! read more

Dr. Marra was doc "32 I took my daughter to. Dr. Marra has, I believe, saved my daughter's life. She is very knowledgeable and also intuitive. At the beginning especially we thought she was pretty eccentric because of that intuitive side! - but she has turned out to be right every time. She told us to give her 3 years ... and while for a long time it didn't seem like there was any progress, now, almost 3 years later, we can see significant progress. This kind of care is expensive, and very individualized. Because there is so little research available, you have to rely on the experience of someone who has treated a lot of patients with tick-borne disease - and Dr. Marra has that experience. read more

"As good as it gets" would not be the phrase I would use to describe Dr. Marra, but that was the highest praise yelp will give you. Dr. Marra is above and beyond that. She has exceeded all of our expectations in terms of healing and conquering lyme. She is a genius and as a result can be quirky at times, but once you get to know her and once you see that she is a master in her field, you accept her in all her amazingness. I have lyme and passed it to my son while he was in utero. Dr. Marra has her training in pediatrics and cured my son and has been working closely with me for the past year and a half. She is honest even though it may not be what you want to hear, but then she doesn't let you walk out alone with those feelings. She helps you deal with the reality of your situation and sticks with you during the process. She is kind, supportive and truly cares about your well being AND your family's. She asks not only how you are but how everyone in your family is and enjoys getting to know everyone...even the pets! I highly recommend her. She will get right to the root of the problem and will see you through it. read more

My wife contracted Lyme in her childhood and was only diagnosed 4 years ago after a series of hospital visits and wrong diagnosis after wrong diagnosis. Her condition had deteriorated to the point where we believed her life was almost over. When we first came to see Dr. Marra she warned us that this would be a long journey and that things would get worse before they get better. They did AND they have! Lyme is such a complex disease that having a doctor who has a deep understanding of it is absolutely crucial to ever improving. Dr. Marra has been that doctor for us. Lyme is expensive to treat with any Lyme literate doctor, but so is Cancer or other life threatening illnesses. There are plenty of quacks out there but she is not one of them. My wife has experienced a major improvement thanks to the treatment she has received by Dr. Marra! read more

I was diagnosed with Lyme disease and Babesia in September 2016. My symptoms started in 1990 and yes, it took 26 years and many google searches later (yay google!) to finally find a possible diagnosis for the symptoms that had plagued me for so long. I found an area doctor who treated Lyme and he ran the tests and confirmed I did indeed have Lyme and Babesia. I was under that doctor's care for a year and a half and he was a kind and thorough physician and the first doctor I had seen who believed me. I'd heard about Dr. Marra and was curious so I made an appointment with her February 2018. At my first appointment (and every one since) Dr. Marra did the full routine - checked my weight, BP, reflexes, cognitive ability and went over each medicine I was taking and what dose. She asked me to bring a binder with page holders to put each month's treatment plan in, newest on top. The treatment plan consists of the supplements and prescription medicines for the month and how and when to take them. Also, and hugely important, Dr Marra has had, and has recovered from, Lyme. She also studied with the best Lyme doctors on the East Coast and has extensive knowledge of tick borne illnesses. Dr Marra is thorough and there is a level of discipline required to take the supplements and follow the plan. If you are having an awful time - and who doesn't when dealing with Lyme - Dr. Marra is available and WANTS to hear from you. I want to give those of you with chronic Lyme hope - see Dr Marra. She gets it and will help you. read more

I don't easily give five stars to anyone, but I feel compelled to give it to the woman who has saved my life. When I first stumbled into Dr. Marra's office, I could barely piece sentences together. I had no quality of life at all. As a homeschool mother, that was not going to work for me or my family. When she first ordered the mounds of blood work she required, I thought she was crazy, but when the results came in and we learned how many things were wrong with me I was grateful for her knowledge and experience. Lyme disease and co-infections are not cheap or easy to treat no matter where you go for help. The treatment is not quick and insurance doesn't cover most of the cost. I have never been coerced into buying Dr. Marra's supplements. I usually do purchase them from her because after a lot of research I have found that she is usually equal to or a little over or under what I can find on Amazon. I love the integrative approach taken by Dr. Marra. Yes, it does cost money to take quality probiotics, enzymes and other supplements that Lyme patients need, but it does work. I truly do not believe I would be here today to share this review if I didn't have Dr. Marra by my side the past four years. read more

Dr. Marra saved my husband's life - without her quick, effective treatment he would not be recovering, which he is doing now. We have been both seeing her since Nov. 2012. We came down from Victoria BC, as treatment here was more than useless, and my husband was going downhill fast. I didn't even know I had Lyme, she could see it in my engorged thyroid. She sent us for extensive testing, which was necessary to know what we had and didn't have. We follow her advice explicitly, if we didn't, it wouldn't work as well as it has. She knows what she is doing, and our MD's in Canada follow her direction for our treatment. Saving your life can be expensive, but having clear direction is invaluable. She is constantly training, and following the research. Lyme and co-infections are very difficult to treat when chronic, and we know we are lucky someone sent us to see her. If you are serious about getting better from a tick-borne illness, I would and do recommend her highly. Be ready to change your diet and lifestyle, but remember life is about change... read more

I went to countless practitioners, over years, in search of help for the physical and emotional symptoms (of Lyme disease). Dr. Marra was the first person who knew how to help me, and the change since beginning treatment 7 months ago has been amazing! Although I felt worse initially, the improvement since then has been SO terrific....I feel like I am healthier than I've ever been (and happy to be eating healthily!) I can exercise without tiring, I can handle emotional and physical stressors with an ease I haven't been able to in years! I'm so grateful to Dr. Marra for her care and expertise! If you are a person who can stick to a regime and have the motivation to hang in there through the changes you'll undergo, I would highly recommend Dr. Marra. She's the first person who has understood what's going on with my health and had an effective way of addressing it... with amazingly positive results! read more
