Dr. Lyday is a specialty mold doctor certified in the Shoemaker Protocol, the world's premier mold illness treatment program.

Dr. Lyday has been a physician since 2006 and a functional and integrative specialist since 2017.

Prior to that, she spent 11 years as a family practitioner but was never quite satisfied with conventional medical approaches. Her mother’s illness and subsequent side effects of traditional treatments prompted her to learn more about integrative medicine, and she has not looked back. Dr. Lyday believes functional and integrative medicine is the best way to ensure lasting recovery as it helps patients determine the root of their health issues and does not rely on medications that treat symptoms while ignoring the underlying causes of illness.

She pursued training and certifications in functional and integrative medicine, including specialty training and certifications in the treatment of mold-related illnesses and Lyme Disease. At the time of her certification, she was one of only 26 practitioners in the world who were Shoemaker certified (see list here) in mold treatment protocols.

After 4 years as a functional and integrative medical practitioner, she opened The Lyday Center to provide a dedicated resource for people who are suffering from mystery illnesses and ailments that don’t respond to conventional treatment and are seeking natural solutions to their chronic illnesses. 

Since that time she has expanded her specialties to include the treatment of thyroid disorders and overall energy levels. Her mission is to heal the world one patient at a time.
