"YOU PROBABLY HAVE HORMONAL ACNE"... everyone would tell me. But what do I do about it!? I've tried…read moreeverything, I told them. I was 28 years old with a chin full of huge cystic acne red pimples. All my friends considered me the healthiest eater and would workout every day, so none of this made sense to me. I would wake up extra early to cover up everything in makeup. Inside I was depressed and sad and would cry every few weeks when more pimples would show up. I would say no to social events because I didn't want to be seen like that. I was throwing away money on new natural remedies I found on youtube. Nothing was working. Finally, I was connected to Nourish Medical Center and rescued by the incredible Dr. DJ Sims. SHE CHANGED MY LIFE. After about 4-6 months (I had some serious hormonal imbalances), I NO LONGER HAVE ACNE. MY FACE IS SMOOTH AND CLEAR! I remember reading other people's reviews of them saying they no longer have acne and wishing and praying I would get to the day where I could write the same review. And here I am. It will be all be okay, I promise. You will get there too! :) First of all, you don't need to live in San Diego to see these doctors. They do zoom which is awesome! Nourish Medical is a dream doctor's office. The staff is so sweet and you always feel taken care of. Now let me talk about Dr. DJ Sims - the best naturopathic acne doctor ever. She is so friendly, fun, extremely knowledgable and so easy to talk to. She makes you feel heard (our appointments are usually 1 hour, once a month) unlike regular doctors who push you out the door after 3 minutes. She gets down to the ROOT of the issues you're having and prescribes special herbs & supplements to tackle those specific issues. She gave me an amazing hormonal urine test (called the Dutch test) which told us my hormones were out of whack. She also TEACHES you why these things are happening to your body (for me, birth control and years of antibiotics were a leading cause) and what the specific herbs will do to help my body. I have learned SO MUCH about the body and feel like I have the tools to treat myself in the future if I ever have flare ups. Yes, naturopathic doctors are expensive. AND YES THEY ARE WORTH EVERY PENNY. If you feel hopeless, out of options and not yourself anymore... do yourself a favor and call the office. My happiness and confidence are back and I finally feel like myself again! THANK YOU TO NOURISH MEDICAL :)

I was referred to Nourish by a friend. I browsed their web site and read over the 'Providers and…read moreStaff' bios to try and decide which doctor I wanted to see based on my needs. Honestly, it was a bit of a shot in the dark. Prices of visits vary depending on who you see. I called to make an appointment, and was disappointed to find out it was about 3 months before I could get in. I was called and offered an earlier appointment when someone else cancelled, but I couldn't make it, so I stuck with my original appointment time. The front desk staff were always pleasant when I interacted with them. You have the option to visit in person or through an on-line virtual video visit. For my first visit, I decided to go in-person as I wanted to make a connection with the doctor and for her to really "see me". The office is very clean, modern and upscale, although not 'cold and clinical'. The decor colors are welcoming and serene. There is a waiting room and then you're called back to your doctor's office and you walk through a common area with a large table. There's a small restroom and a phlebotomist's room. I left after my first visit (which was about an hour) with my head spinning slightly as I felt like I had some 'homework' to do before my next visit. This included downloading an app, through which to order supplements and ordering said supplements. Organizing getting bloodwork (which, after some research turned out to be less expensive through a 3rd party lab, not through the Nourish phlebotomist), ordering a prescription through a compound pharmacy and purchasing and utilizing a continual glucose monitor through another retail outlet. While wearing the monitor, I had to enter any food consumed and any exercise activity into the glucose monitor app. Communication with your Nourish doctor is done through a 'patient portal'. Any messages I sent were usually answered within a couple of days. I also called the front desk a few times with questions. For my second visit, I chose the convenience of meeting virtually on-line to save the commute time. This visit was about 40 minutes, done through the portal. The doctor I chose was professional, knowledgeable and pleasant, but not particularly warm and bubbly. She didn't smile much. Not a lot of pleasantries like , 'How was your summer?' or 'How was the drive here?' or whatever, just strictly down to business. That's OK, but I like a little bit more of a friendlier/interactive bedside manner. Between two visits, some bloodwork (outside my provider network), several supplements, a compound pharmacy prescription and mail delivery, plus purchasing a glucose monitor, (also out of my provider network), I spent just over $1,100. After my second visit, it kind of occurred to me that the operation relies a little heavily on the recommendation of supplements which you order through a portal they suggest -- obviously they make a commission. (I was told by the front desk to 'Not order through Amazon'!) I didn't feel like the first set of supplements had done much, so I decided not to order the second set that was suggested. I felt I was given very minimal nutritional advice. I'm glad I gave Nourish and naturopathy a try and I was pleased that I was tested/monitored for things that my regular medical provider wouldn't bother testing for, however, ultimately I didn't feel like it solved much for me. There is free on-site parking.

That's when I found Dr. Lee, and I couldn't be more grateful. From my very first session, I felt a noticeable difference. Dr. Lee is truly one of the best acupuncture doctors in San Diego--her knowledge, skill, and care are unparalleled. Her approach is holistic and personalized, taking the time to understand not just my symptoms but my overall health. Over the course of several treatments, my stomach pain has significantly decreased, and I'm feeling better than I have in a long time. What Western medicine wasn't able to resolve, acupuncture with Dr. Lee has managed to do. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is struggling with pain or other health issues. If you're considering acupuncture, Dr. Lee is the one to see!

I made myself a cup of the herbs that Dr. Lee prepared for me that night and by the morning, the skin issues on my neck and ears were completely gone and the issues on my torso were barely noticeable - no inflammation nor itching. The pain in my back was completely alleviated. I was very intentional and present in my acupuncture session with Dr. Lee - not passive like I've been in sessions before with other acupuncturists. I truly believe the combination of intentionality during the acupuncture session and Dr. Lee's herbs healed my body so deeply that I had to share. She is a very powerful healer and I will most definitely incorporate her into my self-care practice regularly. Angel, her office manager, is so very gentle and accommodating. Such a wonderful experience.

Dr. Collins has truly changed my life!…read more I became his patient nearly three years ago. I was 49 years old and recently retired after 30 years in law enforcement. My stress levels were extremely high, blood pressure was 180/110, and I had several related medical problems. Dr. Collins conducted one of the most thorough examinations of my bloodwork I have ever had. The biggest thing he discovered, I had almost no testosterone (among a few other conditions). He immediately started me on a weekly regiment of hormone replacement therapy. I went from having zero energy, poor sleep, the aforementioned high blood pressure, brain fog, depression, and anxiety, to significant improvements in all areas within just a few weeks. But, it's not simply that he got my diagnosis and treatment correctly, it's all in how Dr. Collins interacts with his patients. He cares like no doctor I've ever had. He spends the time necessary to ensure one is truly educated about lab results and health issues. When he assigns a medication, he makes sure you are well-briefed on your condition, along with the pros and cons of all recommended treatments. He now runs new bloodwork on me twice annually, and we have two follow-up visits. Over the past three years, he has tweaked my treatments accordingly, and even found other minor issues that he corrects before becoming a more serious problem. I have referred over 10 close friends and family, and all echo the same praise for Dr. Collins' ability and bedside manner. Most recently, my Wife went to see him over several female-related health issues that no other provider could solve. First, my Wife felt completely comfortable speaking with Dr. Collins about female specific conditions. And, he developed an innovative treatment plan that is like nothing we've seen from any other doctor. Dr Collins deserves the highest praise and admiration for his knowledge and ability to deliver an amazing level of proactive healthcare!
