Dr. Katz earned his medical degree from Sackler Faculty of Medicine – a medical school affiliated with Tel Aviv University, located in Israel.

Dr. Katz founded the Epilepsy Center at Norwalk Hospital in Norwalk, Connecticut in 1993. There, he started seeing patients whose seizures were not epileptic, but something different—involuntary movements which turned out to be autoimmune complications of Lyme disease. “When the Lyme community hears about a doctor willing to listen to them, that information spreads like wildfire,” said Dr. Katz. He began seeing more and more Lyme patients and opened a private practice in Orange, Connecticut in 2002.
