I noticed positive results within a week and, for the first time, saw significant improvements compared to the steroid treatments I received from other medical doctors in the past. I reached out to Dr. Batra again in May for some other issues I was experiencing related to stress and poor immune system. Again, she asked questions then advised with patience and empathy. Zynthia's calm presence, knowledge, and thoughtfulness in her support is apparent. She's the kind of doctor who follows up and checks in to make sure you're making progress with her treatments.

Each treatment leaves me feeling more balanced, relaxed, and physically improved. She truly listens and tailors each session to exactly what I need at the time. I also really appreciate how accommodating she is -- she always does her best to fit me into her schedule, which makes it so much easier to stay consistent with treatments. I'm incredibly grateful for her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for lasting results and a practitioner who genuinely prioritizes her patients.

An epic doctor? You don't see that everyday!…read more Dr. Karen Peters exemplifies the very best of what a healer can be. When I first met her years ago, I had just survived being a medical experiment in Guatemala (now there's a story!) and was fully fed up with western medicine and its egotistical butchers, and had little faith or patience with its practitioners. On a whim I tried the naturopathic approach and she turned me around 180 degrees with the anti-inflammation dietary approach. Naturopaths know far more about healing systems and dietary effects than traditional doctors. They have "evolved" beyond western medicine. They are also not shy about using other modalities, they go for what really works. Dr. Karen as a practitioner is gentle and wise, patient and incredibly attentive and clear. Kindness just flows from her. She is the first doctor I have ever looked forward to going to see, by far. She has that special je ne sais quoi... She is super smart and knows Spanish and handled my Spanish medical records no problem btw! She just all around rocks. Can you say that about your doctor? Let Dr. Karen Peters help you. I bet she changes your life :)

There are no "dumb questions"!! His homeopathic remedies and B12 shots are absolutely fresh, custom and effective. (just so you know not all B12 shots are equal), I totally recommend Dr. Duplain.

I was a little apprehensive about seeing a natrapath because I was afraid they would be a little…read morebit 'woohoo' ie, not as science based as I would feel comfortable with. I wanted to get bio-identical hormones for menopause because I was suffering from horrible insomnia and anxiety that had set in during the transition from peri-menopause to menopause proper. I had tried at Kaiser but they will only do that under special circumstances that I didn't qualify for. She was extremely knowledgeable about the connection between the hormone changes of menopause and peri-menopause and insomnia and anxiety. She had me do extensive (but all at once so therefore not burdensome) testing for my levels of all potentially related things to determine the best doses of hormones for me specifically and make sure my overall health was good. I had been told by Kaiser that it was not possible to determine my exact levels of hormones yet the tests she called for did just that and went through a medical facility that was excellent. And throughout she was empathic and understanding so I felt comfortable telling her I'd been through a recent trauma that may have been exacerbating some of the symptoms and she then talked to me about the changes in the daily timing of the release of cortisol in the body from PTSD that none of my prior MD specialists had ever mentioned and included some further tests and natural treatment for this as well. Her non-judgemental attitude and understanding did not change when I shared this as it sadly often does if you mention anything mental health related to a practitioner and that she would be so knowledgeable about something that wasn't even an advertised specialty of hers made me feel that she keeps herself so up to date on the latest information and treatment with a very wide net because of her integrated perspective and clear commitment to best practices so that you could bring her just about any issue and she would have helpful treatment suggestions for you. She saw me often enough to get the correct course of treatment and then once I was stabilized with consistently good sleep and lowered anxiety did not need extensive follow up visits so I got proper care without unnecessary expense. She is a gem that I would recommend to anyone.
