Glossary Term

Co-Infections

A patient shorthand for overlapping tick-borne infections or related concerns discussed alongside Lyme disease.

Definition

Co-infections is the directory term used for overlapping tick-borne illness concerns such as Bartonella or Babesia. On this site, it indicates that a provider profile lists those topics among the practice's stated focus areas.

Why it matters here

The term helps patients filter profiles without assuming every provider addresses the same infections the same way.
