Tick bitten child rushed to the vet

A mother in the UK discovers a tick bite on her 19 month old son and does what any normal parent would do, she takes him to the vet. After first going to their local hospital the mother, Vanessa Marsden, grew impatient and worried as the nurse, not knowing what to do, left to go ask for other doctors opinions and look up how to treat the tick bite. Not wanting to wait, Marsden called the local vet who saw them within 10 min and knew exactly how to remove the tick. Many of us know that most doctors are unprepared to deal with ticks and Lyme and it's great to see people searching out other options from qualified professionals, even if they are unconventional.
