“Mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health are the essential components of well being, which are constantly challenged in the modern world. Nature is the only healer that likely touches all of those human aspects, and comforts during times of distress and illness.” SLM

“Empathy and compassion coupled with intuition, commitment and an intention for a holistic treatment plan, are the ingredients of a healer to transform sickness into health and cultivate elevated and sustained wellness.” SLM

“The universe speaks in the language of clues. The body speaks in the language of symptoms. Progressive physicians have a valiant opportunity and challenge to integrate clues and symptoms to systematically and strategically lead a patient to wellness. Perception is everything!” SLM

A Seattle Lyme Disease Doctor,
dedicated to finding the root cause of
complex & chronic conditions. 

Meet Dr. Susan L Marra,
Your Seattle Lyme Disease Doctor

Welcome to My Practice

Dr. Marra specializes in personalized, precision functional medicine, a practice rooted in her own journey as a survivor of multiple tick-borne illnesses, which began in 2000. That lived experience is not background detail; it is the foundation of her clinical philosophy, her empathy, and her relentless commitment to getting patients well.

As a Seattle Lyme disease doctor and Lyme Literate Naturopathic Doctor (LLND) with 28 years of clinical experience, Dr. Marra practices at the intersection of functional medicine, naturopathic wellness, and regenerative medicine. Her practice is grounded in rigorous lab work, clinical transparency, and evidence-informed naturopathic wellness care.

Dr. Marra understands that complex chronic illness is never one-size-fits-all. Each patient presents a unique constellation of symptoms, a personal illness thumbprint, shaped by their individual genetics, physiology, and environmental exposures.

Her practice focuses on complex chronic illness driven by tick-borne infections (Lyme disease, Bartonella, Babesia, Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, RMSF, and others), mycotoxin and mold illness, heavy metal and chemical toxicity, Long COVID, mRNA vaccine injury, SIBO/SIFO, parasites, and co-infections including Epstein-Barr virus and Herpes viruses. These conditions do not fit neatly into conventional medicine’s frameworks, and that is precisely why so many patients slip through the cracks.

Ready To Start?

If you are ready to move out of chronic illness and into a sustained state of wellness, to reclaim your life and express your full potential, Dr. Marra is ready to walk that path with you.

“If it doesn’t make sense, then it’s NOT the right answer. The universe is precisely designed over billions of years, and everything makes sense if humans would simply observe, reflect, cherish, protect, and reevaluate their value system.”
