Dr. James Schaller is very knowledgeable and versed in Tick Borne Infections, Lyme Disease and Co-Infections. I have been battling Lyme Disease & Bartonella for almost 5 years and received treatment when I lived in MA. When I moved to Florida my symptoms started getting worse again and it felt like my body was shutting down. I researched Lyme Disease experts in the Naples area and found Dr. Schaller. Over the past 3 months he has helped me to start getting my life back and feeling better. I know I have a long road ahead of me, however, I already notice a big difference in how I am feeling at each appointment. Before I met Dr. Schaller, I was at a point in my life where I could barely get through the work day because I was so EXHAUSTED all the time and my body was depleted of essential vitamins and naturally produced compounds/substances. I am so relieved and thankful that I am finally getting my life back and I am able to exercise and go out with my friends again which is a HUGE…

Dr. Schaller saved my life and made me a whole person again. I am on the road to recovery. After 1 and 1/2 years of telling doctors I have Lyme but only one band showing active, I was told I was negative. When I found Dr. Schaller he immediately diagnosed Lyme, Bartenela, and Babesia Duncani, which was confirmed by tests. Dr. Schaller put me on the correct medication that is working. I was lethargic and could not accomplish anything except the essentials. After seven months of treatment, I finally feel GREAT. I am not completely well yet, but I am well on the way. Dr. Schaller has been a God-send.

I’ve known Dr. James L. Schaller before he became a Dr. and have continued to be blessed by our many years of knowing him. He has many, many insights to all that he has studied and put into practice over all these years to many people with various symptoms of various illnesses that many other Doctors have overlooked. The testimonials by so many people over the years give proof to this. I had a tick on and in my body a few years ago. Because Dr James has specialize also in this area of ticks, my Doctor mentioned a couple of treatments of which I felt uncomfortable with. I questioned her treatment the proceeded to explain what I knew about ticks. I mentioned Dr. James many years study in this arena, a long with his other studies in various medical fields. She never heard of him but I show her his Website and she became very curious as to his insights. My next follow-up visit, she had looked into his website and stated a thank you for directing her to Dr James and all his research on…

Dr. Schaller saved my life. I was told by the VA that all of my health issues were psychological. For years I was slowly dying and could not work. I stayed with Dr. Schaller last year, and he found infections – Lyme, Babesia, Bartonella, Ehlrichia, and much more. I lived in torture for years under the VA’s gaslighting and misdiagnosing. I am 100% cured of Morgellon’s Disease, and I take zero psychiatric medicines now. I would already be dead had I kept using the VA and not found Dr. Schaller – he literally saved my life. I am actually working now after seven years of being sick. I went from a bedridden 99 lbs dying person to a working person with my life back. I say again – I have my life back. Thank you Dr. Schaller, and I hope you continue to save more lives. I am blessed.

Dr. Schaller er en MD som er godt bevandret i å håndtere borreliose og tilhørende co-infeksjoner som man kan få med flåttbitt. Han er også en anerkjent forsker innen dette medisinske feltet, så han holder seg oppdatert på alle de beste behandlingsmetodene og utvikler mange behandlingsmetoder for flåttbårne infeksjoner selv som er svært effektive. En god lege. Dr. Schaller is incredibly knowledgeable about Lyme infections and the co-infections that often happen with Lyme and very accomplished and successful with treatment of these different conditions. I highly recommend him as an MD.

Delighted with my progress! Dr Schaller’ extensive knowledge of medicine has enabled him to provide excellence in care. I was misdiagnosed or dismissed for years. Lyme comes with coinfections which Dr Schaller is able to treat. I’ve had success as he closely monitors my symptoms. I’ve feel so much better then when I walked in his office. I’m grateful to find a physician with Dr Schaller’ knowledge and personal care. He listens !

I cannot express enough how much I am thankful and blessed that we met Dr. Schaller. 8 years ago, my husband was diagnosed with MS and my son is a special needs child.I had some of the symptoms but could not afford to be sick as well.Over the last 8 years of struggle,I lost trust in the doctors.But my husband found Dr. Schaller and wanted to give it a last try.The moment I met Dr. Schaller in person, I felt that he is different than any other doctor.He showed a big compassion and knowledge about everything.He insisted that I should be tested, and also to get the treatment right away as well.We did the blood work, and it turned out that we all have Lyme disease and that explains all of the symptoms.We are now in treatment since 4 months. We have our ups and downs with the treatment but since few weeks, we are all improving and finally able to live a normal life. Dr. Schaller is a very kind, compassionate, knowledgeable person. He cares and knows what he is doing. Thank you Dr. Schaller!

I have had Lyme Disease + Co-infections for over 2.5 years. I have seen multiple doctors and have tried many, many treatments. Dr. Schaller is the only doctor who took the time to listen to me and truly care. I was given the tests I finally needed and was told that I CAN and WILL get better. That is exactly what happened. For over two years I have been bedridden, struggled to walk my dog, and depressed about my illness. Within a few months of treatment with Dr Schaller I have felt so much better. I even got a paddleboard! I know that I have a further to go on my healing journey, but he has brought my life back and I am hopeful for the future. If you have a chronic illness and feel lost, look no further.

Dr. Schaller has tremendous breadth of knowledge on tick-borne diseases. No single treatment is right for everyone. Dr. Schaller listens carefully to your history and current symptoms and recommends (and adjusts) the right supplements and medications to get the best results and the least side effects. Dealing with Lyme can be a long journey and I am very happy to get my life back with Dr. Schaller’s guidance and genuine compassion.

Dr James Schaller is an amazing doctor. After several years of doctor after doctor (locally) trying to get help (unsuccessfully) with Lyme and co-infections, I finally found Dr Schaller and he got me headed in the right direction. I flew 1,000 miles and then rented a car and drove two more hours to go see him. It was totally worth it! I’m so thankful for his vast knowledge of tick-born infections . He has spent a lifetime of research learning how to help people rid themselves of Lyme and other associated infections. If only what he knows would reach the mainstream medical establishment, hundreds of thousands (if not in the millions) of people suffering with chronic Lyme (and co-infections) would benefit.

After 25 years of struggle with a multitude of symptoms and visits with dozens of specialists, Dr. Schaller helped me get my life back. I would not be here today without the excellent treatment and encouragement of Dr. J. His knowledge and his ability to stay on top of the newest methods and treatments is remarkable. Thanks for not giving up on me.

In my dealings with Dr. Schaller, and for other members of my family, he has shown great compassion and understanding. He has a great knowledge of various infections and how they can manifest themselves. Dr. Schaller also demonstrates a broad wealth of knowledge in diverse medical areas that helps him in treating specific situations that exist. His understanding of various lab tests that are not run of the mill is impressive. I am thankful for the help he has provided to my family.

As a recent college graduate, I started suffering from crippling fatigue, severe anxiety, and extreme weakness (among other things) and I had to stop working because I became non-functional to the point where I needed to be in bed all day. I was so discouraged, and after seeing several doctors, Dr. J is the first doctor Iâ??ve met who brought real hope and answers to what I was suffering from. Iâ??ve been doing treatment with him for 3 months now, and can already see improvements in my health and I continue to remain hopeful about the future. Dr. J has answers for absolutely anything I ask him about. He is the smartest person Iâ??ve ever talked with, he has a funny sense of humor, and also is incredibly compassionate and caring. He has extended his compassion and care to several of my family members as well and I am so grateful that God led my family to find Dr. J. I would highly recommend Dr. J to anyone! â?¨

I am delighted that I came to such a competant Dr as Dr. Schaller. He certainly knows what he is talking about when it comes to setting up a plan that finally works .. I had seen other Dr’s, and although they had a small picture, they didn’t have the whole picture. I am finding the best care ever from this very caring Doctor and I highly recommend him for he is certainly one who can pinpoint the problem and come up with the best solutions … He also takes his time to answer any questions you have.. I give him five stars for sure…
