Thank you Dr. Dana Michaels... I feel so much better…read more Words cannot do it justice for feeling good when I have been feeling bad for so many years. I knew something was wrong with my gut, I tried a virtual Natropathic doctor who helped me at the time but not enough and the gut problems just kept persisting. I knew I needed a good doctor who understands holistic health and the gut to understand what was going on with me specificially. Meeting Dr. Dana's was the best experience. Getting her kind-hearted guidance to do the tests and get the protocols, I FEEL BETTER!!! I literally had to hand over my health to someone else I trusted because I had failed. I'm now on day 12 of this transformation so lots more to heal but at least I feel energetic enough to play, work, and spend quality time with family. If you feel bad the rest of the world is not great. My gut biome is on the road to recovery and that means the world to me. Thank you Dr. Dana Michaels. If you are considering working with Dr. Dana do it and your health will improve but first you got to know what is going on inside your body and no ad, internet group or friend will be able to tell you that other than doing the tests and following a protocol specific to YOUR body. Still not sure? Watch "Hack Your Health" on Netflix as they talk all about the gut biome in a very entertaining way. But notice the doctors that work with the people are learning what is going on inside of them and how to fix it. Natropathic doctors are far more capable of helping you with true gut health because they believe in a holistic approach of healthy bodies.

I am a huge dog lover, (I own a rescue tripawd) but just as dog owners wish to be asked before…read morehaving people approach their pets, I didn't really wish to have to gently and continually push away Dana's dog off me. The dog was getting hair and saliva on my clothes and I didn't appreciate it. Perhaps not a big deal to the owner of the dog but not my preferred. Hard sales pitch launch immediately citing specials. I really just wanted a B12 shot. Hillpark Integrative where I usually get my shots for less was closed. Didn't really take time to hear me out on anything, jumped right in and then bounded into her specials. The dog was distracting, odd layout distracting, box of tissues I tripped over was distracting. Its cheaper to get the shots at Hillpark if that's what you are looking for.

I am not a vegan, but I found this place to be absolutely wonderful to reset my system with a weeklong fast while feeling very safe and at home. There's truly nowhere in the world, that I know of, that you can get a cozy clean room in the most beautiful town I've ever seen with a 24/7 salad bar, medical supervision 4x today in your room with kind, compassionate medical providers and staff, delivered broth and juices also 4x a day, not to mention the daily cooking demonstrations, lectures, and stretching classes-for under $300 a day. Also I found the beautiful plants and fragrant flowers help you feel at peace while you heal. This is not a five-star hotel. It's a healthcare center that assists you in healing naturally, while feeling safe and supported.

Headline: "Wellness Branding. Burnout Reality."…read more My experience with TrueNorth Health Center completely destroyed the admiration I once had for this institution. I arrived believing this organization represented compassion, prevention, healing, and whole-person wellness. Instead, I personally experienced a culture of burnout, overwork, emotional exhaustion, and inadequate support for nurses and frontline caregivers. During my time there, I routinely worked approximately 60 hours per week while also covering overnight call responsibilities, operational support, management duties, and patient-care coordination because I sincerely believed in the mission and wanted to help people heal. One of the biggest issues I advocated for internally was healthier overnight-call systems because I believed interns and staff deserved adequate sleep and humane working conditions inside an institution publicly promoting "healing." Apparently advocating for caregiver wellbeing was viewed as a problem rather than leadership responsibility. I was ultimately terminated over what I believed was a completely reasonable workflow handoff involving communication regarding a patient dietary-status change near the end of my shift. At the conclusion of my employment, Dr. Alan Goldhamer told me I was the "worst employee ever," that he regretted hiring me, and that he felt embarrassed explaining me to the board. After my firing, I was led to believe contractor opportunities would still remain available. Based upon those discussions, I relocated nearby and signed an apartment lease expecting continued work opportunities and income. Those opportunities never materialized. Communication stopped, support disappeared, and I was left financially devastated and trapped in a lease without stable employment. Perhaps the most ironic part is that during my time there, I shared my dream of bringing lifestyle-centered healthcare directly into patients' homes through compassionate, prevention-focused, nurse-led care. I was told those dreams would "never see the light of day." Today, I now provide preventive and lifestyle-centered care directly into patients' homes across California and Washington through CVS Health / Signify Health and was nationally recognized during National Nurses Month. This experience taught me that some organizations are far better at marketing wellness than actually embodying it internally toward their own staff. Patients seeking lifestyle-centered support may be better served exploring resources through the National Health Association, American College of Lifestyle Medicine, The Plantrician Project, Farmacopia, Flourish Integrative Health, or Sonoma County Acupuncture Center. Based entirely upon my personal experience, I cannot recommend this organization to patients or clinicians. -- Nathanael Smith, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, DipACLM
