I just finished my six month work with Dr. Melody, and I can say without hesitation that she…read morechanged my life. When I first came to her, I was dealing with an overwhelming mix of issues--SIBO, extreme candida, leaky gut, and parasites. My body was a mess, and I felt lost and discouraged. Dr. Melody guided me through every step with clarity, patience, and real expertise. She didn't just hand me supplements and push me out the door--she actually helped me heal. She listened, she educated me, and she supported me through every stage of my recovery. My stomach, my energy, my whole system feels like it finally belongs to me again. I'm grateful for her professionalism, her compassion, and the way she treated me as a whole person. If you're struggling with complicated gut issues and you're ready to actually get better, Dr. Melody is the one you want in your corner.

My body thanks me everyday since working with Dr. Wong. I…read morehad felt from various symptoms that my digestion was not good for a long time. Then, after one painful bloating incident, where others eating the same food had no issues, I decided to seek advice from Dr. Wong. From the beginning, Dr. Wong quickly educated me about her approach, how we would learn more about my situation, and how she proposed to treat my situation. Dr. Wong listened to me about my goals for myself, and we discussed a plan to which I was willing to commit. Within a few weeks of starting treatment, digestive changes were noticeable, and maybe I was also lucky that in a few months, my digestion became stable with regular healthy stool output. Through those observable improvements, I am certain Dr. Wong's treatments and advice, including a much reduced appreciation of wine, has resulted in distinctly improved digestion. As mentioned at the top, my body feels like it is internally working much better than before.

This is an overdue review. I saw Dr. Raphael during the pandemic. She was my first naturopathic…read moredoctor and the first doctor I had seen completely virtually. She took detailed information and concerns of mine. She was able to put in bloodwork I needed to the lab but I was able to take her recommended lab work to have my doctor put it in so that some of the lab work would be covered by insurance. The lab work is much more extensive than the basic lab work your traditional doctor does for you. Her lab work was able to have her give you recommendations on supplements and diet. The lab work is an eye opener to seeing how unbalanced my body was. Just before having the vaccine, she instructed me on what tinctures to take prior to having the vaccine so that wouldn't have any or mild side effects. The first two vaccines I took the tinctures and I barely had any symptoms. When the booster came out and I completely forgot about taking the tinctures, I had a headache and was tired for two days. I won't forget to take this going forward now. If you're looking for a naturopathic doctor, I highly recommend Dr. Kizzy Raphael where ever you are located. She does a wonderful job working with patients virtually. Her attention to detail and her eagerness to want to resolve your health issues makes her a vital part of your wellbeing.

Dr. Kizzy has helped me obtain a quality of life I didn't think was possible. I had lost faith in…read moretraditional doctors, having been told countless times from more doctors than I can remember that "I'm fine". I'd been through Kaiser, PAMF, Sutter Health; nobody would listen and nobody would help. I felt so hopeless, defeated and truly sick. I was experiencing debilitating fatigue, excruciating pain in my tailbone, extreme nausea, issues with overactive bladder, blood in my stool, a swollen abdomen, weight that I couldn't lose no matter what I tried ...the list goes on. Every day was a struggle and every day I felt so unwell, and there was no explanation. The nausea has been affecting me for over 30 years. The final straw that pushed me to find help outside of what my insurance would cover, was testing positive for colon cancer at 46. I didn't really have the money to seek alternative care, but feeling like I was on the brink of death motivated me to reprioritize my life and figure it out. I found Dr. Kizzy out of sheer desperation. I chose her because of the reviews I read. I could write pages and pages about how wonderful she is, but to summarize, I feel amazing! I don't have colon cancer. I was completely misdiagnosed by Kaiser. They kept running the same tests over and over. They refused to deviate and expand the parameters of their testing even though I wasn't getting better. They told me my ailments were all in my head. Dr. Kizzy was able to determine I had SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth), H.pylori (very common, from food poisoning) and that my adrenal gland function was extremely low. I've been a patient of Dr. Kizzy for a little over a year now and for the first time in my entire life, I'm ok. I will be forever grateful for her help! She actually listened and cared. · Debilitating Fatigue - Dr. Kizzy treated my adrenal gland function, and I have so much energy now! · Excruciating Tailbone Pain - It was from chronic stress, which led to pressure and muscle tension in my pelvic floor muscles. She recommended an amazing therapist (Taryn Weinkam, PhD) who helped me release the trauma I've been holding onto for so many years. My pain is gone! · Overactive Bladder - It was my body's response to being in a constant state of "fight or flight". The therapy helped with this as well, it's no longer an issue. · Extreme Nausea - It was from H.pylori. Nausea is one of the main symptoms. If Kaiser or Sutter had run a simple test, this could have been diagnosed decades ago. My nausea is completely gone. · Swollen Abdomen & Bloody Stool - Both of these were from SIBO and both are no longer present. · Excess Weight - SIBO contributed to this, but so did the feeling of hopelessness. I credit both Dr. Kizzy and therapy. Our bodies react to our mental state. I've dropped 30 lbs and fit back into clothes I never thought I'd be able to wear again. There is really something to that whole "mind, body, spirit" thing. I highly recommend Dr. Kizzy!

Best doctor! Rich Stagliano is the most incredible doctor. He is what a doctor in the field of…read moremedicine ought to be. I was initially very nervous to go see him because of past experiences, but I was told by another clinic to go see Rich because in their words "he is the best Functional Medicine Doctor on the West Coast". From my first conversation with him, Rich has made me feel at ease, he actively listens, asks the right questions, and problem solves with me to find the most appropriate solution. Upon completion of a thorough questionnaire & eval, he pinpointed the root cause of my issue to be an allergy to gluten, dairy & a deficiency in a vit/min. He not only gave me the tools needed to make changes to diet, stress, sleep, self-care, relationships, etc; he supported me through each step. What I think is incredible about Rich, is that he takes a holistic approach. He not only treats the condition, it's underlying causes but he treats the whole person!!! He has not only been a doctor to me, but also a coach. He is kind, compassionate, extremely thorough & has excellent follow-through. Again, let me say that he is the BEST doctor!! He has changed the course of my life, & to him I am forever grateful. Thank you!

As health professionals ourselves, we can truly appreciate his expert depth and width of knowledge of functional medicine.

We always receive kindness, caring, and thorough care. He is the best! We're so grateful!

I had also scheduled an appointment with an allergist around the same time, but after seeing Dr. Zhu, I ended up canceling that appointment. I'm so glad I did. Dr. Zhu conducted an incredibly comprehensive exam. She addressed not only my allergies, but my other underlying health issues. By making certain dietary changes and taking supplements and herbs, my allergies completely cleared up in less than three weeks. I later returned to Dr. Zhu for additional treatments, including acupuncture and cupping, which were also very helpful. What truly stands out about Dr. Zhu is how much she genuinely cares about her patients. She doesn't just treat the immediate concern you come in for--she focuses on your overall health and long-term wellness.

He is patient and never makes me feel rushed. He seems to listen carefully and also seems to care about the answers. I highly recommend him if you need acupuncture, whether you know you do or not!

Dr. Gina is a medical doctor who performs as a doctor should, helping with diagnosis, treatments, prescriptions, recommendations etc, but her help presents in a form that is far more wholistic, empowering, and human than that of most medical professionals.
