I came to Dr. Duncan for Functional Medicine because I was struggling with severe anxiety that was…read morelimiting my ability to truly enjoy my life. I also had about 50 pounds to lose, but what I appreciated most was that Dr. Duncan did not just look at one symptom. She looked at my whole body, my lifestyle, my stress, my nutrition, my gut health, and what was actually going on underneath the surface.
The program was a four-month commitment, and I really appreciated that it was one cost to work with her during that time. I never felt like I was being left to figure things out alone. If something needed to be adjusted, Dr. Duncan adjusted it. If I needed more support for my GI tract, she provided what I needed at no additional cost. When my supplements needed to be tweaked, she exchanged them and helped guide me through the changes, at no cost to me. She also added lifestyle tools and activities to support my healing without charging me extra. What other doctor would do that?!
Dr. Duncan went above and beyond what any other practitioner has ever done for me. When things felt hard or overwhelming, all I had to do was reach out, and she would walk me through what I needed help with. She was patient, supportive, and truly invested in helping me succeed. I also liked that we had regularly scheduled check-in times. But I could text, call or meet with her personally for any additional care I needed any time!
One of the biggest turning points for me was learning how to follow an anti-inflammatory diet. Dr. Duncan even invited me to her home to help me better understand the dietary changes and learn how to food prep. I was there for over 3 hours. She answered all my questions and showed me that taking better care of myself was possible. That level of care meant so much to me.
Implementing the anti-inflammatory diet changed everything. My brain fog is gone. The tendonitis in my shoulder and elbow is gone. I lost 50 pounds, and weight loss was not even the main reason I came to see her. The weight just fell off! I have more clarity, more confidence, and I feel like I finally understand how to support my body instead of just chasing symptoms.
This program works, but you have to work the program. This is not a fad experience or a quick fix. It is a true lifestyle change, and it can change your life for the better if you are willing to do your part.
If you are ready to do the work and want a doctor who will guide you, support you, and look at your health as a whole, I highly recommend Dr. Kate Duncan as a Functional Medicine provider.
