Dear Dr. Schaller,
I want to tell you why I recommend you to so many people. Please share this with individuals who do not know you.
After looking at your very informative web site with free articles my eyes were opened to so many different things I had never heard, and I became curious about you. Then after hearing so many good things from your other patients, I had to check you out myself. I have to admit I was not expecting much relief from my problems, because I had already seen many specialists and internists who did not help me, or listen to me or try to find the underlying cause of my troubles.
It is obvious to me that you are a passionate learner and intense researcher who cares deeply about finding cures to a wide range of illnesses. When I mentioned things that you had not heard of, it was clear you promptly began researching some options to diagnose me, and also contacted different fellow scholars from all around the world to learn new ways to heal me. I never had a doctor do research for ME. I have heard of doctors doing research for drug companies for money, but this is hardly what you do—you research for your precious patients to find the real causes of suffering.
You are truly interested in my ongoing progress and are willing to offer convenient phone assistance. You also offer 24/7 emergency coverage to me for sudden troubles and I never have to talk to medical staff who do not know me.
I know also that you could make more money seeing many patients in an hour and talking insurance. I know medical mills offer better income. But you offer full hour intakes to really listen and understand people.
I am amazed at your wide range of knowledge which is something I have never seen in other respected physicians before. Your knowledge is obviously beyond basic medical school and residency training. I know of no physician who knows so much about so many things, and is willing to publish them for others. You obviously are willing to search for cures and deep causes, and not merely offer “Band-Aid” drugs impulsively.
Your intake laboratory evaluations are so advanced, that I felt like I was being evaluated for the first time. Your special lab evaluations found credible and important things missed in simple 5 tube blood evaluations that I had in the past. It is surprising to me how you have been able to work it out, so that my testing is done by a wide range of top labs—you try to send each individualized test to the best lab, and are not so naive to feel one large national lab is the best at all tests.
Perhaps most of all, I love the fact you listen and get down on the floor with my children and care for me and them deeply. As a father I do not trust doctors to treat my children, but I definite trust you. We are not merely numbers or time slots—we are REAL people with a real doctor who cares. This is why I trust you to care for my children and have full trust in you. They are improving markedly since you started treating them. Thanks so much!
With Sincerely and Best Regards,

Dear Dr. Schaller,
You helped me when no one else knew what was wrong with me, and for that I’ll be eternally grateful. You were able to search out the causes of my suffering with your extensive labs and sharp mind. Thanks for getting me the help I needed, and getting me on the right track. I appreciate all that you’ve done.
I feel much better than when I first saw you, and I am excited that I finally know what is wrong with me and I am slowly improving. It is amazing how many respected physicians missed the causes of my suffering.
Thanks for everything.

My children’s future lives are better because Dr. Schaller helped fix their Mom: me. I was overwhelmed with chronic late stage lyme and after 3 years and four MD’s, I finally found Dr. Schaller and my life changed for the better within months.
Thank you!

Dear Dr. Schaller,
Thank you for such a positive doctor’s visit in Tampa, Florida last month.
For the past 15 years I have been going to numerous doctors and specialists to diagnose my illness with no results. You have done it in less than a month.
My long range goal with your guidance is to follow whatever protocol is needed for Bartonella, Lyme and Babesia. I now have hope I will start feeling well again.
I have a lot of faith and trust in you, and I would not hesitate to refer others to you.
Sincerely,

Mold, ADD, Body Pain, Arthritis, Severe Headaches, Fatigue and More
Over the last two years at least ten doctors sent me to about seven specialists for my medical troubles. All wanted to do surgeries to fix my neck and my hands which were swollen and very painful. I also had severe headaches, dizziness and arthritis like symptoms. After meeting all these physicians I was confused and demoralized. I just felt my problem was not a simple surgery or a simple medication since I seemed to have a number of new illnesses. I was about to give up.
Then I found Dr. Schaller’s main web site. I called his office and his staff were excellent in helping me get started. They spent a long time on the phone with me and returned calls quickly. I had the sense they had time for me—that was special.
Once I met Dr. J., he diagnosed me very quickly, almost at a glance, but said that to be careful we needed to run some tests. He found a number of infections, some mold biotoxins, hormone abnormalities, excess inflammation and many other things. He was able to link these things together to show I did not have 20 problems but a limited number of issues, and 3-5 positive labs each confirmed some specific illness. Then it was an unusual experience to have my problems discussed in some of Dr. Schaller’s many books, research publications or hundreds of free articles. I have never been given so much information on my health. Thankfully, the reading is optional.
When I arrived at his office my joints and muscles were killing me. I was severely fatigued. My swelling and pain causes were pin pointed in less than a week. In the few months that he’s been my doctor, I have improved tremendously without surgeries. He IS the most amazing doctor I have ever known. In my eyes, he saved my life. He is a very kind, caring, intelligent doctor, who is so far ahead of times. I would fly around the world to see him if need be. I can honestly say I have complete and total faith in him. Also, his support staff is excellent, too.
On another note, I was diagnosed ADD years ago and had brain fog for at least a year and Doc Schaller found that these symptoms were part of his diagnostic findings. Under his care, these symptoms are improving rapidly. Before Dr. J. started treating me I would not have been able to keep my thoughts together enough to even tell you about him.
Now, as you can see from what I’ve written that he’s taken care of that, too.
He IS a God send.

Dr. Schaller has done it again!
I have known Dr. James Schaller for several years now; he is brilliant, compassionate, witty, highly evolved, and most informed. I am not even slightly surprised that he could write a book on such a compelling and prescient subject as addition to pain medication. My own family’s personal struggles with drugs caused by inappropriate treatment to bipolar disorder and from misdiagnoses to horrendously advanced Lyme encouraged me to read Dr. Schaller’s newest book. I was transported by its simple clarity, vision, and elegance. The man is a genius. Thank God, drug addition to pain meds is one problem I have not experienced, but I have many friends who cannot say the same thing. I am referring ten friends to this book tonight. I can tell anyone reading this review that my decades as an English professor and medical research writer have taught me a lot. I can spot an “empty” book in about ten minutes. Dr. Schaller’s books are all “replete”; they are pithy, well-documented, and comporting. I cannot recommend it highly enough, and I will pass it along to my medical doctor friends. TONIGHT!

Dr. Schaller came thru again!
Once again Dr. Schaller has provided us with a much needed and practical resource. As a therapist, I am constantly looking for material that will be a help to struggling clients: parents, teachers, spouses, and others. This book gives me exactly what I am looking for in a consise, easy to read, complete package. Thank you Dr. Schaller.
I have known Dr. James Schaller as a caring professional for over ten years. He has helped many patients in our Philadelphia clinic; patients who continue to ask for him and for his help over and over. What impressed me most while working with Dr. Schaller was his vast wealth of knowledge. Patients who we referred to him came back with lots of new treatment options, articles, books, and research articles. They greatly benefited from the education they recieved, but also from getting their diagnosis RIGHT! For many, after years of searching and years of ineffective treatment, Dr. Schaller was able to pinpoint their problem and bring them much appreciated relief. I would highly recommend Dr. Schaller to you.

I am really grateful to Dr James Schaller to have written the first exhaustive book on human babesiosis. It is an amazing sum of information that I suggest all MDs treating tick-borne diseases should read. Babesiosis literate patients wanting to know what’s happening in their bodies should also get it. It is a must have for you and your doctor, if you have caught this plague called babesiosis and try to get rid of it. The book is written in an easy to read and pleasant way (though English is not my mother language). It is a considerable source of references, treatments, interactions, helpful tips, a masterpiece of the state of art.
******Review by Sylvie Rinaudo, PhD from France about a textbook by Dr. Schaller on Babesia, an infection routinely missed.
Dr. Schaller writes in an engaging manner that draws professionals and is clear enough so those who are struggling with these symptoms can understand the etiology, description and treatment of the disease. The book freely and exhaustively shares a bibliography so those who need more already have a lot of the research sources completed for them. I am not a medical doctor but in my work with individuals, couples and families it gives me abundant resources to spot potential symptoms and refer people knowledgably for further evaluation. Dr. Schaller is a prolific writer but he takes no shortcuts in his work. Very few medical books bridge the gap from professional to lay reader, and this book makes a yeoman’s attempt, and for my money, succeeds.
