Complex Medical Problem Solving – Mold & Tick-borne Illness
Far reaching symptoms of mold and tick-borne illness often baffle patients and doctors for years. Proper diagnosis and treatment require skill, patience, and investigation. I stay updated on the latest treatment options and I am in a close mentorship with Dr. Neil Nathan, author of best selling book Toxic, and Dr. Jill Christa, author of best-selling book Break the Mold. Additionally, I am Mold Literate Certified by Dr. Jill Crista.
Many homes and buildings have indoor mold growth that is often times not detectable, but can devastating health consequences. Our nasal passages and gut can become colonized with mold spores that produce mycotoxins. Exposure to mold can lead to health issues such as fatigue, cognitive decline, depression, anxiety, joint pain, chronic sinusitis, asthma, allergies, and digestive problems. Mold can also disrupt your immune and hormonal systems, leading to heightened sensitivity and inability to get well. I assess and treat mold-related illnesses and can connect you with local inspection and remediation services.
Lyme disease and its co-infections, such as Bartonella, are on the rise across the country. Tick-borne illness is often difficult to diagnose because it mimics many other conditions, causing pain, arthritis, fatigue, concentration issues, and mood changes. Standard tests for tick-borne illness is highly insensitive and often misses infections. With targeted testing, I evaluate your symptoms, medical history, and risk factors to provide a comprehensive approach to treatment. Experienced in treating patients with Dr. Horowitz’s dapsone protocol.
Long Covid
Covid long haulers suffer for months after the initial infection and experience a wide range of symptoms. Symptoms such as brain fog, decreased short term memory, headaches, fatigue, pain and sleep problems are often debilitating. Many long haulers also experience a relapse of chronic diseases, including viral and tick-borne, prolonging illness and making it difficult to get well. Working in primary care during the pandemic brought first hand experience treating patients suffering from the unexpected aftermath of this insidious virus.
Digestive Disorders & Gut Health
Healthy digestion is imperative for our overall health, including mental health. Gut inflammation fires up our immune system and increases overall body inflammation. Dermatological conditions, chronic illness, food allergies, environmental allergies, and suboptimal mental health are all associated with a leaky, inflamed digestive tract.
Optimal mental and emotional health are dependent on good digestion. Our microbiome and other activities of the gut affects how the brain works in all aspects including feelings, emotions, cognitive function, and how the brain ages. Thoughts and feelings directly affect digestion and may manifest as irritable gut and other conditions. Experienced in treating SIBO/SIFO, IBS, detecting food allergies and more.

Patient Testimonial
“My son is extremely sensitive to mold. We were living in the same house, so I was also tested for mold mycotoxins. Unfortunately, I tested positive to 4 different mycotoxins. After looking into my health history and environmental situation, Dr. LaSalle quickly established an effective treatment plan. She was an active listener, attentive and thoroughly answered my many questions. I could reach out with any concerns and Dr. LaSalle responded quickly. She is a very caring, professional and very personable. The treatment has gone well and my health is so much better. Thank you, Dr. LaSalle.”
