According to Austin Advanced Practice Nurses, Ginger Savely, FNP-C, was named TNP NP of the year.

She is now recognized as one of about 100 top Lyme disease specialists in the country and patients come to her from all over the state of Texas and from six other states as well.
Ginger is an active member of an exclusive professional organization in her field called ILADS (International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society). She also serves on the board of directors of the Texas Lyme Disease Association. She has organized two support groups for her patients.
