I came across Apex Advanced Medicine while searching for functional medicine doctors near me. I am in my 30s and have been diagnosed with Celiac disease since 2020.Last year, I had uncontrolled eczema that Ive never had in my life and I could tell something was wrong with my body. The traditional medical system was not helping figure out my issues. My primary care physician kept sayings everythings fine and all I needed was some otc iron pills. Also the dermatologist I saw recommended I start Dupixent biweekly injections for an indefinite time. I cant stop it because it wont be effective then. It is a newer drug thats only been out for a few years and no long term studies have been done on the side effects. I was hesitant of course to go on it. I was just shocked and surprised that the dermatologist failed to even consider that the eczema might be being triggered by something. All she had to say was eczema is autoimmune and theres no causative agent.I read a lot and learnt about the effect of diet on our bodies ane our bodies healing capabilities. Also came across the term functional medicine which made me explore it more.I saw Jen the first time in Sept 2022 and I loved her professionalism and demeanor. She is very sweet and since the first day that I met her, I felt I had finally found someone who is genuinely concerned about my well being. I am coming close to to my 4th lab review and I feel great and in much better physical health. I am so much more conscious of what I put into my body now. For someone like me, who loves sugar, lived on junk unhealthy food for so many years, barely knew any cooking, this has been an eye opening experience. I feel so much respect for my body now.Jen had biweekly calls all these months with ne and she has always been so sweet and non judgmental even when I tell her I ate something I wasnt supposed to. I always used to think she would get mad at me but all she would say lovingly is Its ok. Get back on track againI highly recommend going to Jen at Apex if you have any health issue(which i guess mostly everyone has nowadays).Insurance likely wont cover this stuff but I feel anything in life that helps keep you healthy is worth paying for even out of pocket. I think I saved enough money eating junk/unhealthy foods so I learnt my lesson the hard way.

Jen helped me immensely with a number of issues that I was having, including blood sugar imbalances, fatigue, low thyroid function, and allergies. After reviewing my lab work, Jen was able to recommend some key supplements that quickly helped me to feel so much better. She also made some dietary recommendations that were easy to follow - not overwhelming at all. I was amazed by her expertise, and how thorough her plan was, without it feeling overwhelming. She also has such a kind, thoughtful, genuine disposition. I highly recommend Apex Advanced Medicine to anyone wanting to understand the root cause of their issues, and find a program that will get the results theyre looking for.

Apex Functional Medicine helped me so much. I came in struggling with pain, inflammation, and food addiction. They not only helped me to regain my health, but they also took the time to educate me on why certain issues were happening and how everything was connected.Dr. Scharf is passionate about the work she does and it shows in her thoroughness and willingness to spend a lot of time with her clients. She was the first doctor to really listen to everything that was going on with my health.The nutritionists, Jen and Sarah, would do weekly check ins with me so that I could really be accountable to my meal plan. The extra time they took with me made a huge difference in my progress.I have gained so much from my experience with Apex. My energy levels are through the roof, I feel comfortable and confident in my skin, and my body is working the way it was intended to. I am forever grateful for the work this team does.

I went to Apex for aesthetic services. I had been searching for someone to do micro needling and prp for some time. I found that Apex offered it. I was very nervous because I had not been to this office or knew the person doing the treatment, but I was also really desperate to try something for my skin. My face had tiny bumps all over and some very dry patches, I also had very dark circles under my eyes. My doctor had given me some treatments, but I was getting worse, and nothing was done for dark circles. I took a chance and came here and was very happy I did!!! After my second micro needle treatment my skin was clearer and softer than it had been in YEARS!!! my dark circles were gone! Linda was so nice and very professional, she was great!! the office is very clean and professional, and I will continue to keep going.

I started working with Apex Advanced Medicine to help with my hormone imbalances, a propensity towards low blood sugar and sinus inflammation issues that I just couldn’t get rid of. Once I started talking with Jen during our first meeting I also realized that I had been dealing with digestion issues that I had put aside as being nothing to be concerned about. After doing a couple of lab tests, and getting a plan on how to support all of the above in place, I was feeling better within a few weeks. Now I know how much of how I was feeling was tied to eating what I thought was healthy for me. I thought I was healthy, and everyone I know thought I was healthy. But, my labs did not show this. All I needed was to be told what MY BODY needed and what MY BODY needed to stay away from. The level of support, education, time, research and care that went into supporting me was like nothing I had ever in my life experienced. I have referred Jen and Apex to my family and friends with so much confidence and wish that healthcare everywhere would support people like I’ve been supported. Thank you.

I came to Apex Functional Medicine one year ago after suffering a complete metabolic collapse. I have been afflicted with multiple chronic autoimmune diseases for the past 30 years and up until that point had managed fairly well with my traditional medicine team and my own research. As an avid cyclist and swimmer I was used to oftentimes pushing through symptoms just to continue my training schedules. In Spring of 2019 there were many signs that my body chemistry was completely out of whack but none of my doctors were looking at the complete picture. They just kept adjusting my meds and having me wait 3 months before checking on it’s effectiveness. By fall of 2019 I hit rock bottom and could barely function physically, mentally and emotionally. I knew at this point that I needed an advocate to help guide me out of this dark hole. I signed up with Jen at Apex Functional Medicine and began my journey to wellness.Through the extensive lab work we were able to identify numerous deficiencies in my energy and metabolic systems as well as gut problems. Many were markers that my traditional medicine practitioners never looked at. All were addressed through the changes in diet, addition of supplements as well as suggested adjustments to my meds. Jen helped me to communicate my needs with my traditional medicine team, always in a respectful way, to ensure that we were all working together to help me get back on my feet.Throughout the year I had several set-backs and frustrations unrelated to my autoimmune diseases. Jen never faltered in her steady support, encouraging me and a few times getting tough with me to get me out of a “self-pity party” (which I needed to hear!).Things really began to improve about 3 months ago and then several weeks ago I noticed a significant increase in strength, endurance and best of all what I can only describe as a new sense of overall “well-being” that I haven’t felt in over a year. I can honestly say that Jen saved my life and helped to bring me back to a quality of life that I cherish. I am back to all my activities, motivated to complete tasks and set life goals again. My family and friends tell me that they can see simply in the way that I walk and talk, that I am back to my self again.It is kind of a paradox for me that 2020 was such a horrible year for our country but it is also the year that I returned to a sense of personal health. Thank you Jen (and Courtney too who is also wonderful!) I have learned so much from your care and expertise and I hope to maintain my good health for many years to come.

I have to say that my experience with Apex has been so helpful in regaining my health. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto Thyroiditis in 2006 and on medication for 9 years before getting a new evaluation from an Endocrinologist in 2015. Even with the medication I was low on energy and could not lose the extra 20 pounds gained during the thyroid issue (thyroid storm). The Endocrinologist thought I may have been misdiagnosed and removed the medication. All my labs remained normal, but I still felt lousy.Even though I have been eating organic, pesticide free, GMO free and gluten free for 8 years, I was not able to regain my energy or health. I had seen a Naturopathic Doctor who helped a little with the symptoms, but did not have a comprehensive program to help me heal.Beside thyroid issues, I also had really bad GI pain, abnormal stools, bloating, severe gas issues, poor sleep and moderate PMS. I had been hesitant in seeking help from a Functional Medicine Doctor due to cost, but I was determine to regain my health this year. I was also skeptical because of my experience with the Naturopathic Doctor.I went to the talk Dr. Scharf offered, but she was ill that day and Jennifer did the workshop on hormones. Everything she said resound with me. I took the leap and have been on this journey of healing for 5 months. I went through the detox, where I lost 5 pound and the bloating. I still had GI issues so I was not ready to believe that I was better.Then I was given an individualize supplement plan including the right foods to eat. Within days of my body getting the right supplements that were missing, I started to shed another 10 pounds, feel alive again, and all GI symptoms have resolved, most notably the gas. It is important to inform you that there are foods I have to give up to remain healthy (like gluten). I am okay with eliminating foods from my diet because I feel great.I am just getting started at supporting my hormones and I was told that it is about a 6 month process before seeing those changes. I am looking forward to see what else happens in the next 6 months.In retrospect, I believe that the cost is a real investment in my life. Like my husband says, You can not put a price on health. I also believe that paying (what I felt at the time was a large cost), kept me accountable to stick with the program and make better choices everyday.The staff is kind and helpful. Dr. Scharf, Jennifer and Sarah are all professional and informative. I appreciate them all.

As my Type 2 diabetes was steadily getting worse I was looking at alternative ways of treatment. I found Apex Functional Medicine in Walnut Creek, attended a seminar and decided to sign up for their reverse diabetes program. After one month on the program my medical Doctor reduced my medications and I was feeling better than I had in years. Now, 6 month into this my A1C levels have dropped from 7.7 to 5.5 and I lost 20 lbs. Dr. Sharf of Apex Functional Medicine, as well as Jennifer Meredith the Nutritionist are both top level professionals who go through great length to impart their knowledge to their patients with patience and care. I can highly recommend Apex, their treatment plan and patient care.

Jen & Sarah have been great in getting me back to health. I was having multiple problems with an autoimmune disease, skin allergies, headaches and digestive problems. The beginning detox really helped along with the anti inflammatory drink that you take for 5 weeks. After that you meet with Sarah to go over your tests and determine a regimen of supplements based on your tests. I like that the tests are very detailed and show what is really going on in your body. I found that I was very low in some of my vitamins and this was leading to health issues. After a couple more months I took more tests which measured my hormone health. The tests pointed to all of the symptoms I had been experiencing. At that time Sarah and Jen switched my supplements and explained how they were working and how my levels were changing.I feel better and feel like I am finally understanding what is going on in my body. It is a long road to health. I feel that some of the reviews want something right away but they tell you up front that this is a journey to health.... Also, Sarah and Jen guide you to take care of your own body, to give it what it needs to work the way it should without prescriptions or masking the problems.I suggest you ask them about payments and how the test charges work. Most of it comes out of pocket as the tests are not usually covered by insurance. I decided this would be ok as I am learning things about myself that I would not get with a general practitioner.The other part I have enjoyed are the available seminars held at Apex. I especially enjoyed the shopping and hormone health talks. I read quite a bit of heath articles and I learned something new at both seminars.I look forward to the next few months and my improving health.

After a friend found a lot of success with Apex Functional Medicine, I decided to give it a try. I had been dealing with weight loss issues for a while, and was willing to try just about anything. What I love about Apex is how thoroughly both Jen and Dr. Scharf analyzed my body’s internal functions to find out exactly why I wasn’t able to lose the weight. After a short detox period and with the right supplements, I began to see the weight disappear. The protocol is easy to follow, and I’m now feeling healthier and more energized, and eating better than I was before.

I had surgery to repair my torn meniscus twice in the last 10 years. The pain of my meniscus tear was returning and when I saw my doctor he said the next step was a knee replacement. I have a friend that had his knee replaced and told me to put off getting it done as long as I can because of the pain and discomfort he still has. He told me about stem cell injection APEX was doing. I went to their seminar to get the information on their procedure. I was very hesitant to get the injection because of the cost and it was such a new method in the medical field. I decided to get the injection with a little encouragement from my wife. I was amazed! After the injection I was able to walk without a limp or pain. After a few days it began to hurt again, but not as much. I bought their vitamin package and my knee slowly got back to having minimal pain with basic exercise. After a couple months my knee is in great shape. My pain level was 10/10 before the injection and now I am able to walk and climb stairs without any or sometimes slight pain. I am able to go to gym and get on the bike for an hour without pain and when the pain flares up it is a 3/10 normally at the end of the day. The pain doesnt last long and it isnt as intense as before. It was worth the risk and Im glad I took the chance.

After attending one of Dr Scharfs educational seminars, I was intrigued to find out more about how to heal my body. I had been taking thyroid medication for over 15 years and now was told I had a fatty liver by my primary care physician, who then said that she couldnt help me only to try a low fat or fat free diet! So began my quest to try and find out as much as I could about food and healing that brought me to these two wonderful practioners. In a matter of months I have seen such a change and such an improvement in my lab results that I am astonished at the transformation. First month we worked on a complete detox to help set the stage for bringing my digestive system into balance, then they work on great nutrition and supplements that correspond to the needs of your body and the results you are getting from your lab work, over the next two months I have seen my liver function tests return to normal and many of my labs that were out of normal start trending back to a good range! Thank you Dr Sarah & Jen for your great help with educating me on the wonders of food and natural healing! I would recommend anyone who is serious about good health - health being wealth - to attend and find out for yourself!

My experience with Apex Medical has been amazing! The entire Apex team are over the top kind, truly caring about their patients and strive to make a genuine impact on their patients health. Its only been 3 1/2 weeks that I have been following their program protocol to good health and I can honestly say the changes have been fantastic. I look forward to my continued relationship with Apex. I know with Dr. Sarah/team at the helm, they will be leading the charge in helping me back to good/great health!!

The ladies at Apex Functional Medicine are absolutely fabulous. They each have a true passion for health and getting you and your health back on track. Within the first 2 days of starting the detox phase of this program I instantly felt better than I have in years. I wake up feeling refreshed and excited about this process. Sarah, Jen and Mar get 5 stars from me. If you are considering functional medicine this is the place to go to!

Dr. Scharf and Jen Meredith are terrific! When I first met them I was in very bad shape. I have Hashimotos (Thyroid), had been diagnosed pre-diabetic, had brain fog, overweight, hair loss (none on my arms and legs, very thin on my head), dry skin, wanted to sleep anytime I sat down but had trouble falling asleep and then staying asleep. From the results of my blood tests I found out from Dr. Scharf that I had many things out of whack in my body.I can now say that all of these have changed. I feel great! My hair on my head is thicker, my skin is nice again, I have no problem falling asleep at night and staying asleep, my weight is back to what it was 9 years ago (the weight came off in the first 5 weeks of the detox program), I have energy and strength.The program was easy enough to follow. Having to give up a few things (certain foods, sugar and alcohol) for 5 weeks was hard at first, but got used to it and was easier when I saw the results from what I was eating and the supplements I was prescribed. The supplements are all plant based. My blood tests before I started and the tests at the end are vastly different showing how my body has healed.Dr. Scharf and Jen are very supportive and easy to talk with. The workshops were informative and very helpful.If you are having any of the problems I mentioned see these two ladies. They can help you tooThank you Dr. Scharf and Jen!!!!!

Im now going into my fourth week with Apex and loving the positive results i can see in my body. My psoriasis is almost completely gone, joint pain and inflammation has lessened, bloating is way less and Ive even lost a weight, yay! Most importantly i feel calmer within myself, much more even tempered and not so easy to fly off the handle.I love that i have weekly workshops to attend with like minded people, Im learning so much from these...how to eat healthy organic food, what not to eat and why, where to buy the best fresh seasonal produce, why my body is not functioning properly and easy down to earth explanations on why theres an abundance of auto-immune diseases, hormonal imbalances, diabetes etc...Its amazing how eating the wrong food, stress and daily toxins can effect your body. I like knowing exactly where my weaknesss are due to the many clinical tests that are performed through Apex, Im looking forward to seeing my blood work level itself out with the help of their awesome team. This is life changing stuff and i would highly recommend anyone who has any medical issue or just wants to be a healthier more energetic version of themselves to attend one of their many free seminars and go from there.

I went to Apex because of thyroid issues that were impacting my ability to get pregnant. I went through their program, and after previous miscarriages and unsuccessful IVF cycles, we have a healthy embryo and are implanting in October. Apex was very flexible with me and customized their program to suit my unique needs. I enjoy being a detective when it comes to health, I am my own quarterback but it takes a team, and Sarah and Jen are a very special and important part of that team. Jen currently has me on a customized fertility diet (were calling it the Preggars Diet), which is rich with foods, movement exercise, and supplements that will prepare my womb for a healthy pregnancy. Ive asked them all sorts of questions about the viability of intralipid infusions and ozone therapy, to the best ways to clean my liver of the IVF medications. What I appreciate most about this program is that it provides a LIFESTYLE solution, and even though I have a very specific goal of having a healthy baby, the knowledge I have gained from Apex is lifelong, and will contribute to great longevity. The lab work was so eye opening. I love the granular detail that we go through with all of the lab reports, and then developed a wellness program that suited my specific lab results. Everyone has very different biological needs, and they are great about leveraging standard best practices, but tailoring the program to your requirements. I highly recommend doing the full year program - you want to do your lab work at the beginning and the end to see the improvements and results. Nothing is a quick fix, and I recommend staying committed to the lifestyle changes even beyond the year program they have.

As a nurse currently working in the American health care system, I personally prefer alternative medicine when it comes to chronic health issues. As years passed by, I acquired a lot of problems such as hyperthyroid, high blood pressure, chronic pain, sinusitis, allergies, food sensitivity, tennis elbow, bilateral carpal tunnel, and a lot GI problems (heartburn from childhood, bloating, stomach pain, discomfort and etc). Even though I was going to gym, practiced Yoga / Pilates, used acupuncture, Chinese herbs, was cooking food at home, and eating out very seldom, switched to most organic food about a year ago, I felt constantly tired, exhausted and low energy. I heard about Functional Medicine from my sister, that lives at Walnut Creek. I came to free seminar, where teaching was excellent and people were getting hope for their chronic conditions, (thyroid, hormonal imbalances, diabetes, hypertension). I live in Sacramento, but was not able to find any similar program closer that offers a year of coaching, retesting, and a lot of teaching via seminars. (I did a good research!). However, I dont have to come to Walnut Creek often. Dr Scharf and Jennifer (awesome practitioners and great people) can call me, or email. The results were amazing! I stopped taking blood pressure medication in 4 days after staring the program. It came back to 114/75!!! As I continue program, I started feeling more energy, chronic pain is almost gone, no heartburn! So, this shows that I am moving in the right directions!

In February of this year, my mom ask me to attend a workshop with her in Walnut Creek I didnt want to go but I wanted to support her in whatever endeavor she was embarking on. However, to my surprise the workshop was about Diabetes I realized this trip was for my benefit and not hers. Thanks mom.I was told in 1998 I had type 2 diabetes. I attended various classes on the subject learning it was a lifestyle disease, how to test my blood, take my meds and how to eat. I was told no food was off limits but I had to control my portions. Which was difficult because I was hungry and tired all the time.As time went on, I had become frustrated and depressed with the care I had been receiving through conventional medicine my A1C fluctuated between 12.0 to 10.8 and my weight was 272. I was tired, hungry and angry all the time. I would follow my doctors and diabetes nurse advise but the food plan wasnt working and I rarely had energy to exercise. My meds were increased with every other doctors visit I felt miserable.In 2015, my friend lost her leg to diabetes and my neighbor had started dialysis. When I sat in the workshop I told myself I had to do something because conventional medicine was not helping me.That evening in Walnut Creek I heard words like functional medicine, root causes, leaky gut and how to properly detox. I knew I was in the right place. After following Dr. Scharf and Jens advice I received my July lab results and my A1C dropped to 7.3, my weight to 240 and my meds were REDUCED.Dr. Scharf and Jen are educating me on proper nutrition, supplements and how to take care of me. Jens workshops on nutrition and shopping are truly assets. Youll learn some foods are off limits and all supplements arent created equally.I know I still have a long road to travel but now Im gaining the tools and knowledge along the way.Thanks to Dr. Sarah Scharf and Ms. Jennifer Meredith.

I am so thankful to have joined the Apex Functional Medicine community. I have only been involved for a little over a month and have found staff personable and knowledgeable. In just this short time, aches and pains have disappeared, no more swelling in my hands and feet, psoriasis flare ups have nearly diminished and my overall stamina has increased. At first I missed my morning coffee and my squirt of Braggs on my food, but now I have delicious herbal teas to drink and garden spices to sprinkle on my veggies. This is a an exciting journey. Thank you Everyone at Apex!Display Name:Linda Valenziano

Excellent facility with extremely knowledgeable staff. Dr Sarah has helped me learn how to take care of my health, lose weight and reduce my dangerous inner inflammation. I’ve tried for literally years to reduce my inflammation and now I finally have been taught how to do it. My Primary Doctor is very impressed with the improvements I’ve made in my health a relatively short period under Dr. Sarah’s guidance. I’m very grateful I was recommended to this facility..

Was inspired after my first meeting, everything just fell into place. The approach of functional medicine gives you the natural way to heal your body without the normal take this pill attitude of regular practitioners.Very impressed with Dr.Scharf, Jen Meredith, nutritionist, and Molly on their knowledge and accessibility.I would highly recommend Apex Funtional Medicine to all that want total control of their healthcare

I have been working under the top quality care of Jennifer and Sarah for 18 months now. Before them I bounced around endocrinologists, doctors, and specialists, still without much knockledge of why I had hormonal imbalances at such a young age when I thought I was so healthy. I didnt want to take the pills these other doctors tried giving me to cover up a problem that had a root cause.Thats when I went to a workshop on thyroid health by Dr. Scharf. I have now been indescribably grateful for finding her and Jennifer Meredith ever since. Because the healthier and stronger I now get, the more I realize how sick I actually was, and that I would have developed many more chronic diseases with time and age had I not changed my whole lifestyle with their help. And lucky for me, they moved from Marin to their beautiful east bay office just five minutes from me in WC!This new office continues to grow and expand into a very progressive and innovative practice, that provides some of the most genuine care and top medicine attention one could get. Every patient is viewed as an individual, rather than just another patient as comprehensive tests/medical history is analyzed by a team of specialists, as the completely unique individual body it is. From here, that individual is provided the support to get their body back to a place where it can heal itself, the way it was designed to, by getting to the root of the problem (not just putting a bandaid over it). They stay on top of the latest research in their field, while also being a part of the newest research. Their functional medicine/integrative health approach blends a balance of eastern and western medicine. They offer priceless knowledge on how to live a lifestyle that results in optimal health and nourishes the body properly in a world going through the age of (mis)information. They constantly give workshops with various topics to educate their patients and get them to the best place possible to autonomously continue to live an optimally healthy lifestyle on their own. Its so refreshing to have a medical office I can actually trust and know has my best interest and health at heart!They have even built a community within their office and patients, furthering the support and community feeling. There is now a specialized nutritionist, hormonal replacement therapy, amazing new designed weight loss program, their own line of products coming and more exciting things added as of the new year.This team continues to help change lives every day and help literally unwind a lifetime of damage wreaked on a body.Beyond happy to be under their loving care and highly recommend Apex for anyone seeking honest change and control of their life and well being!

Wow! really is the best way to describe my experience with Apex Functional Medicine. I am not a true fan of doctors or medicine. As a matter of fact, unless I feel as if my life is truly in danger, dramatic I know, I will not see a doctor.This year as I approach the latter half of my 40s, I have noticed small differences in the way my body is speaking to me. Actually shouting at me. I have been sluggish and fatigued, napping frequently, moody, forgetful, and many other little things that seem insignificant but are out my norm. I scheduled my annual physical with my doctor, explained what I was experiencing and she did exactly what I didnt want. She ordered a blood panel, including a check on my thyroid, and said as soon as the results were back she would know what medication to prescribe. And that is when I knew I had to find something else.Apex Functional Medicine, Dr. Scharf and Jennifer were the answer I was looking for. Their protocols are in line with what I wanted for my body. They started me off with a super detailed blood panel and a detox. Setting my body up for long term success is how I interpreted that. I made mental notes for each day - how I felt waking up; did I feel fatigued and take a nap; was my body regular; etc. Let me tell you how I felt during those first couple of weeks. I didnt need a pot of coffee each morning to get going. I took 3 naps during that period instead of daily. My sleep was solid. I was feeling like myself again. And that was just the beginning! After my initial blood panel was reviewed I was excited to know exactly what I needed to do to help facilitate my own wellbeing.I am confident that my journey with Dr. Scharf and Jennifer is exactly what I need to take control of my health.

I came with my husband Rod to their free seminar to listen to Sarah.Rod had been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, MG, so I thought what the heck. Well all I can say is that he has lost almost 40 pounds and through diet and the supplements all the deficiencies that were noted through the in-depth lab work has all improved. Dont know if it has affected his MG in a positive way, but I am sure it is helping to have his immune system healthier so the MG doesnt attack is body further.

I came to Apex through a free seminar. The timing was perfect for me, and I jumped into working with these compassionate and knowledgeable women. I am so glad I did. Dr. Schar is meeting me right where I am, with no judgement and tailoring my program just to my particulars. Jenn has been so supportive. Although I live in another state, the distance support has been personal and so very helpful.

Big push to pay in advance, no receipt at time of purchase, could not alter the diet to accommodate my kidney stone diet, did not send in authorization for blood draw, I requested cancellation of program and a refund, could not tell me what my refund would be, did not answer phone or respond to messages left, charged almost $4300. for a 1 hour consultation and the stool test. Very poor business practice, beware they only want your money. They are not doctors.

Huge red flags not to be ignored. They offered some good nutritional common sense advice but I backed out of my contract due to the red flags and now I cant seem to get my money refunded. They sent me a check, THAT BOUNCED due to insufficient funds and now they are not returning my calls. I have decided to report them to the BBB. I would just suggest checking them out THOROUGHLY before agreeing to their hard sell.

They helped me figure out what was wrong with me. The doctors never did they just gave me pills. I am doing well and feel great., they can help you. Just go to free seminar.

Wonderful staff. This team is out front in the world of medicine. The education they provide their patients is spectacular. I recommend you visit their office.

Don’t go to this place. They scammed us of our money, & i payed $3,000 for a stem cell treatment that never happened. Please, be careful!
