May 2025
Healing, Hope, and Prevention
May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month, a time to shine light on one of the most misunderstood and underdiagnosed illnesses. Documentaries like The Quiet Epidemic and I'm Not Crazy, I'm Just Sick reveal the emotional and physical toll Lyme takes, as many patients are left fighting not just an infection, but a system that doesn’t always believe them.
For me, Dr. Anderson, this fight is personal. After both of my daughters battled tick-borne illnesses, I pursued advanced certifications in functional medicine and Lyme disease care to help others find true healing. Opening our Center with Dr. Blundy offers us an opportunity to bring our clinical expertise, ground-breaking therapies like SOT, and deep compassion to the families we serve each day.
Join us as we honor the resilience of those living with Lyme. We see you. We believe you. And we’re here to help.
SOT: Revolutionizing Treatment for Tick-Borne Diseases
Tick-borne illnesses like Lyme disease, Babesia, Bartonella, and Ehrlichia are some of the most challenging infections to treat. These stealthy pathogens often evade traditional therapies, leading to chronic symptoms that can linger for years. Fortunately, an exciting advancement in precision medicine—Supportive Oligonucleotide Therapy (SOT)—is offering new hope for those seeking lasting recovery and healing. Our Lyme specialist at the Functional Medicine Center of New Jersey, Dr. Nicole Anderson, scoured the globe to bring this technology to her children and is thankful to now offer it to our patients.
