Generally, your doctor will request a consultation with an infectious disease (ID) specialist due to the complicated nature of your illness. For your health and safety, you should follow your doctor's instructions to make this appointment.
If you are making your own appointment at Lahey Clinic, call the Appointment Office at 781-744-8000 (hours of operation: 7:45 AM to 7 PM Monday through Thursday; and 7:45 AM to 5 PM on Friday).
Some insurance plans require you to obtain a referral from your primary care physician prior to being seen by an ID specialist. This referral should be obtained after you make your appointment at Lahey Clinic and before you see the specialist.
