I have been seeing Dr Hilty for many years now. Aside from my Chinese Accupuncturist, I would say…read moreshe is the person I credit with saving my health on numerous occasions. I have suffered from many digestive issues over the years, and I could always count on her natural healing methods rather than the pharmaceuticals trying to be pushed on me by physicians. She is also an outstanding chiropractor who has "straightened me out" on many occasions, alleviating chronic pain in my spine, hips and neck, usually with a single adjustment. I have literally limped, hunched over in pain into her office on many occasions, and walked out an hour later totally in line and erect. She is a kind person, generous with her time, with a genuine concern for her patient's well-being. I consider her both a healer and a friend.

Dramatic start, but something I say all the time to anyone who asks about my wellness journey - Dr…read more Hilty saved my life. Truly. I was so ill, so depressed and so done seeing doctors, when I walked into her office it was my last resort, I'd done everything else one is supposed to do and a friend recommended Dr. H since nothing else had worked. She was so warm, open and obviously cared deeply about helping me...such a difference from the dozens of doctors I'd seen who couldn't figure out what was going on and didn't seem to care to figure it out. Dr. Hilty quickly helped me make giant leaps from massive depression, extreme fatigue, overweight, no energy into a (relatively) normal, functioning, happy and healthy member of society. Her work is deep, thorough and completely focused on working with whatever her patient needs to achieve optimal health. Whether I felt a little out of sorts, or recovering from something gross, Dr. Hilty always welcomed the opportunity to help me. She's not only a wonderful Dr., she's a wonderful person. If you have even the slightest need of assistance, you will be so happy to find her. The only thing I'd change about her practice is that it's no longer in NYC and Providence isn't accessible with my MTA subway card.

I'm honestly not someone who usually writes reviews, but my experience with Marisa has been so…read moreimpactful that I felt like I had to share. I drive over an hour each way to see her and it's been so worth it. I originally went to see Marisa for extreme anxiety and ongoing sleep issues, after trying what felt like every modality out there: somatic exercises, journaling, therapy, BIT, meditation, breath-work...you name it. While many of those helped in their own ways, nothing truly moved the needle for me the way hypnoacupuncture with Marisa has. From my very first session, there was an obvious shift. Even the people around me noticed. After that first session, the tension in my shoulders decreased, and the only way I can describe it is that everything (physically & mentally) felt like it had been taken down a notch. Since working with her, my sleep has completely transformed. I went from having an extremely hard time falling asleep and waking up almost every hour, to now pretty much sleeping through the night. If I do wake up, I can fall back asleep easily, and I'm even dreaming a lot which I take as a sign I'm finally getting deep, restful sleep. I've seen such drastic improvements that I genuinely feel like I have a new baseline. I feel so much more in control of my anxiety now and honestly like a completely different person than I was just a few months ago. It's been truly life changing. I honestly wish I could see her weekly. The closest way I can describe how you feel leaving a session is like you just had a massage; you're so relaxed, grounded, and at ease. Marisa has truly touched my life. She is genuinely an angel. She listens, she cares deeply, and she is incredibly dedicated to her clients. If she doesn't have an answer right away, she always follows up, whether by email or the next time you see her, which says so much about the level of thought and attention she gives. I don't feel comfortable around many people, but there's something about her energy that is so light and reassuring. She creates such a safe, welcoming environment, and it makes all the difference. I'm so grateful to have found her and truly can't recommend her enough.

I found my way to Providence Wholistic Healthcare a few years ago after too many years of my PCP…read moretelling me I needed to be on one pharmaceutical or another for some malady I was not experiencing. The final straw was when I could not keep any food in - no matter what I ate, it came right back up. After months of visits they finally did an abdominal ultrasound and found I had gallstones. When I asked how to get rid of them they told me 'we can prescribe pills, but we don't treat it: we wait for it to get bad and do surgery'. What!? You can treat it, but you'd rather send me to a surgeon. OK. I'm out. And my search for a real HEALTHcare provider began. That is how I found Providence Wholistic. The state of RI does not accredit Naturopathic Physicians (like other states do) even though they have the same scientific education as an MD plus they study holistic therapy focusing on keeping you well. Therefore, it's out of pocket, and I still need a PCP to order lab tests and so on. (I found a new one of those too) The naturopathic association is working on getting RI up to speed. In the mean time, I am very, very happy to have found Dr. Sheila Frodermann. First up was pesky symptoms that every ageing woman experiences. The PCP had advised me my only option was to 'suffer' (the bedside manner is weak with that one) - Dr. Sheila gave me actual things I could do to reduce and resolve symptoms including introducing me to herbal supplements. No more pesky symptoms. OMG! Why did I wait? Next up, I'm always deficient in Vit D. Well, Vit D is a fat soluble vitamin, if your gallbladder is not working on digesting fat, you are not getting Vit D. So, we add a supplement that helps my gallbladder do what it is supposed to, and voila, Vit D is no longer a problem. My brittle bones thank you. And on, and on and on. All the things I have been dealing with for YEARS, Dr. Frodermann got to the root of at my very first office visit. Holy moley and thank you Universe for finally getting me to someone who actually knows how to keep me healthy! It's a team effort. She has the knowledge, makes recommendations, instructs, and I do the work. I'm all good with being the creator of my own healthy life. Wholistic medicine takes the entire person into account when prescribing a course of treatment. It's not a one pill cures all, kind of place. You may have to change your diet (I did and she explained why), exercise more (stupid triglycerides), take supplements and/or add some kind of body work into your routine (I love a good massage). All of it is worth the effort if you are truly interested in getting HEATLTHY. I am grateful to have found a health advocate. A group of professionals who work with their patients to figure out what it is that each individual body needs to function at it's healthiest. Every body is unique. What works for you may not work for me. You are treated as an individual here. They are supportive and my visits to their office are always a pleasure. Check out their website for more information about naturopathic medicine providencewholistic.com , their providers and offerings. It's too bad insurance doesn't cover it (yet) but for me, feeling good is priceless.

I had a very uncomfortable and concerning experience with this dental office and would strongly…read morecaution others before going here. I scheduled a new patient appointment approximately two months in advance. Prior to being seen, I was encouraged to enroll in the office's dental membership program months before my actual visit, which was unusual and, in hindsight, appears financially motivated rather than patient-focused. The appointment lasted close to two hours, yet I only spent approximately 20 minutes with the dentist. During that time, the dentist made unsolicited and unsubstantiated claims about my overall health, stating she could identify "gut issues" based on my appearance. She then strongly pressured me to see a specific outside provider charging approximately $1,600 per visit, and implied that any dental treatment would fail if I did not follow her recommendation. This was inappropriate, outside the standard scope of dental care, and presented in an alarmist and coercive manner. The interaction was distressing enough that I left the office in tears. After my appointment, I attempted multiple times to obtain information about my X-rays, recommended treatment, and an estimate of costs. I called the office approximately 10 times, and each time I was told that staff were unsure and would follow up, but I never received a clear response. I was eventually told that this information could not be provided over the phone, which had not been communicated to me previously. The lack of clear communication and inability to provide basic information about my treatment plan added to the overall confusion and frustration. Following this experience, I attempted to cancel the membership. My written cancellation request was ignored, and my card continued to be charged. I was only able to stop the charges by contacting the third-party provider (Clerri) directly. Only then did the office acknowledge the cancellation. I was not provided with any information indicating that cancellation had to be completed through a third-party provider, and this requirement was not clearly communicated to me. Even after cancellation, the office continued to send repeated messages attempting to schedule appointments, despite no indication that I wished to return. Subsequently, I was told I was responsible for paying the full cost of services (cleaning and X-rays) that had already been covered under the membership plan. When I requested written documentation or a policy supporting this retroactive billing, none was provided despite multiple requests. Attempting to charge patients for previously covered services without a clearly disclosed policy raises serious concerns regarding billing transparency and fairness. I did not receive or sign any documentation clearly stating that this was a yearly membership or that I would be financially responsible for the full cost of services if I chose to cancel early. The office also indicated that they would send the disputed balance to collections, despite not providing documentation supporting the charge. Additionally, the office failed to provide my dental records, including X-rays, after I requested them. The office indicated that records would be released once the balance was resolved, suggesting that access to records may be contingent on payment. Overall, this experience raises significant concerns regarding ethical standards, billing practices, and respect for patient rights. I would strongly advise others to exercise caution before seeking care at this office.

Dr. Frodermann is a naturopathic physician. They look at the whole body, how each body system…read moreinteracts with the others and treat with non-invasive, holistic modalities. For example, I had historically been low in vitamin D. My 'traditional' MD/ PCP kept telling me to 'take more vitamin D' like I was forgetting to do so. I was not forgetting, and was taking so much vitamin D on a daily basis, one of my family members mentioned you can actually overdose on vitamin D. This comment gave me pause to think about exactly how well, or unwell, my healthcare really was and began my search for a new health care provider. On my very first consultation with Dr. Frodermann, she knew exactly why I was always low on vitamin D, added a natural supplement to assist with absorption to my daily vitamin routine, and I have never been low on vitamin D since! All those years of 'take more!' was never going to fix the issue. I should have come to Dr. Frodermann sooner. This is just one example of how Dr. Frodermann has changed my health, and therefore my life. It is a health journey and she is an advocate helping to figure out what is needed to stay in good health as we age. I'm definitely not one to 'pop a pill' for what ails me. I'd much rather adjust my diet, add an exercise, take Epsom salt baths, make bone broth or use a caster oil pack for example if that is what it takes to feel good. I had searched the internet for years looking for ways to feel better. It's so much easier to meet with Dr. Frodermann, having the benefit of her wisdom and experience to point you in the right direction. The office offers high quality supplements and the prices are very competitive. At present all consultations are via tele-med (Skype for example) in order to keep everyone safe and supplement pick up is no-contact. Office hours are limited, and by appointment only. Give them a call, or send them an email. The staff are very friendly and helpful. In the state of RI, naturopaths are not covered by insurance although they are licensed by the state and the RI association of Naturopathic physicians is trying to arrange insurance coverage (You can check out https://www.rianp.org/ to find out how that process is going). In the mean time, if you wish to see a naturopath in RI, it is out of pocket. If you are not getting results from your PCP, are tired of always being tired, or just not feeling like anything you have tried is working, maybe it's time you add a naturopath to your health care family. I did and I will never look back!
