The LymeHealHers Summit represents a significant source of inspiration and empowerment. The founders—nationally recognized physicians Patterson, Wells, and Hinchey—identified a gap in Lyme disease education, particularly in addressing the specific needs of women and children.

Together, these three professionals conceptualized the LymeHealHers Summit, an innovative initiative aimed at addressing the educational and conversational gaps related to Lyme disease and tick-borne infections, with a specific emphasis on the challenges faced by women and their families. Their objective was not solely to rectify a noted deficiency in care but also to cultivate a community that thrives on knowledge, support, and understanding.

The summit convened over 20 esteemed female experts, forming a collective symphony of wisdom and expertise. These dedicated advocates for Lyme disease delved into the nuanced issues faced by women and children with steadfast commitment. Beyond addressing specific challenges, the summit also served as a valuable source of general education, disseminating crucial information to a broader audience.
