I've been trying to talk to someone for weeks leaving messages to schedule an exam- but No one calls or emails me back - ??

This Dr supports cancer causing foods & thinks she is preventing cancer. It is so disturbing and dangerous. Dr's are never taught nutrition. Her studies are rigged. I will never go back to her practice. read more

I love this whole operation at the center for new medicine and have been seeing Dr Connealy for about 28 years. The only problem is that now she no longer takes Medicare. Fortunately I can still see her PA who does. However I do not think any insurance is taken except for Medicare. I guess insurance has screwed around so much with drs for years that many are no longer able to continue to send records continuously and spend so much time explaining what they do! I think insurance companies and big pharma all think they are doctors but their background rules and pushing drs into their corners is destroying medicine in general. The drs in this office and all the procedures are superior in my opinion. Too bad there's not a credit for doctors who do things in a more natural as well as western way like there is for home schooling. Another system that's got to go! read more

Dr Connealy is wonderful, kind, caring and has a genuine heart to help. She's cared for me in ways no others could have and I'm so appreciative of her and what she does. read more

I really love Dr C and her staff. I'm only deducting a star because of a couple reasons which I'll list- 1) pricey treatments. They are state of the art, and they do not take insurance unless you have a group PPO. Be prepared to spend min $150 each time. But she's not the most expensive, s I've been to other places that charge more. 2) Dr Connealy is very popular so she's extremely busy. She's a great doctor but she may be in and out during your appointment with her if there is something else going on. Sometimes she takes her time with you and sometimes she's rushed. 3) the ladies for the store/ checkout area are not all the nicest. Some are really sweet but a few could gain from learning customer service skills. However the check in counter is full of friendly faces. All of the medical assistants are nice. Really miss Danika! All and all great facility and doctors! Just thought I should add the 3 things that could use some improvements Although I don't think they can adjust the costs of treatments. As those are expensive anywhere to begin with! read more

I have know Dr Connealy as a patient for a number of years. She has educated me tremendously in taking care of my health. She is as good as it gets and I honestly feel like I am very blessed to have her as my Dr. She will "listen" and give you answers and be totally as healthy as you can be. Her nurse Anne is also a gem and works hand in hand with the philosophy of Dr Connealy. Her cancer clinic is so good I have met people who drive 2-3 hours to come here. I do not have cancer and for that I am grateful but she wrote a very good book called " The Cancer Revolution" which to me is a testament of how to stay healthy and balanced and excellent reading even if you don't have it. read more

Dr Connealy is the best at integrative medicine and so much more. I was referred to her by a friend when I was going through menopause and I am so grateful for her dedication to caring for our health in a natural way when possible. I feel amazing-- thanks to Dr Connealy. I feel that she truly cares - and with her case load I am so impressed how she still takes the time to truly get to know what is going on with me and thoughtfully recommends and educates me as to what to do to optimize my health and well-being. Highly recommend. read more

I tried to make an appointment here and I am listening to my cringing inner voice and cancelling this asap! The level of frustration just at the point of appointment setting is enough to tell me that this is not the healthcare solution I am going to find satisfactory. I am sick enough without having to worry about giving a credit card to be charged $450 should I fail to cancel an appt within a 48 hour window. The doctor does not take insurance. What? Good luck with that Hippocratic oath. I am outta here! read more

Make sure and read the reviews, and especially the hidden reviews, under the yelp "Center for New Medicine." I will forever have discomfort in my leg because of what her nurse practitioner did and I never received an apology. I was told that I need surgery to repair what they did but I can't afford it. Dr. Connealy is (or has been) involved in a class action law suit. Read more reviews here if the four on this page aren't enough for you to make up your mind to run away from this office and don't look back! http://www.yelp.com/biz/center-for-new-medicine-irvine read more

She is truly brilliant and saved my life when so many other doctors had failed over the years. I am shocked at how my quality of life has improved. I have severe asthma and since childhood had been chronically sick for approx 65-80 days a year and hospitalized often. Now so much is different. I have energy, I feel great, Im only sick a few times a year like a normal person, my asthma is improved also. She listens and comes up with fantastic intelligent strategies. We need more Drs. like her. read more

I have been a patient of Dr Connealy for the last 15 years. I have never found anyone more knowledgeable about health and wellness EVER. I am very proactive about my wellness and my families. I learn so much from her EVERY TIME i am there. I have wrote a review about her and her staff and how wonderful they are, months ago. But, I didn't see it? Thats concerning. My whole family sees her and I have 7 kids. Three of them fly in from other states. I now have moved to Oregon and I still fly in to see her or have a schedule phone consult. I enjoy the whole staff and consider them a BIG piece to my continued wellness for my family and I is because of her. I have read these other reviews. AND i just don't get it. MAYBE they see so many people, its a really active office with many doctors. They see thousands of people a year. I honestly feel if some thing very serious ever happened to any member of my family or friends. I would feel I was in the best hands for the fight of our lives. I would feel Dr. Connealy would truly give us the options we would need to survive. if the situation ever arose. I know that she would have the most update information to help us. I can not say that about anyone else I have ever seen medically. She also assisted me in learning about healing inflammation and the importance of a healthy diet and life style. This has helped be heal my son from Autism, Colitis and Crohns disease. Now thats the kind of doctor you want helping your family. I even learn about healthy soaps, toothpaste, makeup, water..the works from her wonderful staff and health shop. read more

Yes, they do accept insurance,. The medical care you receive from the staff is excellent. Unfortunately, the place is run by its clerical staff. You always have to leave a message and cross your fingers that someone will call you back. They don't. They totally treat you like a number. Go to a more personalized alternative care clinic where you feel like they actually care about you. read more

I have known Dr. Connealy since 1987 and have not only watched first hand her knowledge and growth as a doctor but as a human being. Unlike conventional medicine, she does not focus on the symptoms but on the causes. She helps patients who are interested, become proactive for their health by educating them on how to reverse the cause of their illness thus resulting in healthy outcomes. This philosophy of healthcare has produced a large practice over the years. In an effort to accommodate her patients, this sometimes results in over booking causing longer delays. Nevertheless she tries to spend as much time as needed with her patients, which can cause longer delays for those waiting. With a large practice, there will be some negative experiences with staff and services. If this comes to her attention, she makes every effort to correct the situation. Her work ethic standards are very high with the same expectations from her colleagues and support staff. I have observed over the years her patience in weeding out substandard employees and wrestle to find quality people in a day where excellence and integrity are rare. In spite of these challenges, she still operates a clinic I am never reluctant to refer people to, knowing those I have sent, have had positive outcomes. In 2003 I was diagnosed with breast cancer and adrenal failure. Her protocols fully reversed the cancer and adrenal failure in months. I owe much of my good health to Dr. Connealy's willingness to educate me on the fundamental causes for disease and auto-immune system failures. By changing my lifestyle to reflect that philosophy, I am in better health than my 24 year old children and am told I look twenty years younger than my 60 years. Excellent health qualifies me every year for the lowest insurance premiums and am never sick. As a result, I rarely see Dr. Connealy but it is the price one pays for being healthy. I caution those reading the reviews that it is far easier to write a complaint than take the time to give a positive review. I believe my years and years of knowing and working with Dr. Connealy carry more weight as a referral than those who have written poor reviews after only one visit. read more
