I cannot even begin to describe my appreciation for Dr. Rachel and her staff for saving my health and as a secondary effect, my marriage. For those of you who have been struggling with gut or hormone issues for a while, read this. I have been to numerous GI doctors, Endocrinologists, holistic practitioners, acupuncturists, literally every doctor under the sun. I've been poked and prodded in every way- colonoscopies, endoscopies, celiac tests, and prescribed so much medication for medication, my thyroid, a multitude of supplements... all without avail. After chancing upon one of Dr. Rachel's facebook lives, I knew I had to give my health one more chance. She ran a stool test that showed I had a candida infection and two parasites (yuck!) and a SIBO breath test that revealed a pretty bad bacterial infection in my small intestine. We also discovered that my hypothyroid was because my gut and liver were not working well which had nothing to do with a lack of thyroid medication which I have been taking for years (I don't think it was working for me). All the tests were non invasive and revealed so much information that gave me clarity on my symptoms and reassured me that I was NOT crazy. We have been working for about 3 months now and not only is my gut pain gone, my metabolism seems to be working again. I was scared of changing my diet (again) but Dr. Rachel's approach to food therapy is not about depravation or lack but focusing all your energy on the foods that heal and passing on things that might not be helpful. This approach is so much easier and congruent than all my previous diets and this feels very doable long term. My ENERGY is also back and I'm able to focus and engage with my job and family without feeling phrenic and behind all the time. This has literally saved my marriage (and probably my job) and given me hope for my health. It is such a breath of fresh air to have a doctor who is knowledgeable in both the medical and holistic world and presented me with a comprehensive step by step plan. Thank you, thank you, thank you Precision Empowered Health. read more

I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease in 2013. I started to look into what my options were. I felt like at every turn, I was being told to try a different medication or steroid. Some things helped for a little while, but ultimately, nothing helped long term. I started to look into alternative diets, but it always felt like something was missing. I met with Dr. Rachel for the first time in the summer of 2016. When we had our first meeting, I was immediately calmed by her presence. We discussed how she would be able to help me and what it would require of me. She said that if and when I was ready to start the journey, to let her know. She has never pushed me. She understands that this is a personal journey and she is there as a guide for her patients. She did an incredibly detailed outline of my blood work and possible food sensitivities. I have never had anyone explain how my body was working. She is the perfect blend of science based research and alternative healing. I found out that not only did I have Crohn's disease, but I was also have issues with my stomach acid production, leaky gut and SIBO. We started a supplement protocol and diet changes. I have now been working with her for a year and I have always looked forward to meeting with her in her office because I know it will be a healing experience. I can come to her with all of my questions and she really listens and then actually helps. I finally feel like I have a professional healer who is really on my side. I have not had a Crohn's flare in over 7 months!! I am better able to identify my triggers and find alternatives. I have more energy. I am listening to my body more than I ever have, Healing is a process, but Dr. Rachel is helping me through that process and I cannot thank her enough. read more

Dr. Rachel has saved my life and given me a whole new one I never thought was possible. I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis 12 years ago and was always told I'd never live a normal life. I'm stubborn so I never believed it until year after year my health continued to decline and before I was 30 I felt my body failing me. I went to several doctors with no results, only hearing "this is normal side effects of UC." So I went the alternative medicine route trying all the witchcraft and secretly doing under the table treatments...none of which helped me. I was out of options and barely waking up each morning. When you hear over and over that you're "just depressed" or "it's normal side effects" you give up. I got to that point and totally gave in and was convinced I wouldn't live to see my 30th birthday. I randomly came across a health video Dr. Rachel had done and I immediately felt she would listen to me, hear me out and work her tail off if I was willing to put in the work. Taking one last chance and putting my faith in her was the best thing I've ever done in my life. She took on my challenging case and did it with such confidence there was no way I couldn't believe I'd get better. We did an intense 10 month journey and when I just got my new test results they were beaming! I was blown away at how incredible I feel now and how little work we have left to do. She's a god send and if you're questioning whether to trust her with your health or not please please go see her. read more

My experience with Dr. Rachel Yan has been truly transformative. I'm a Registered Nurse who was relying on caffeine and sugar to get me through my night shifts. I was feeling fatigued, emotional, and anxious at various times of the day during my days off, and I wanted to feel healthier and more consistently energetic. Dr. Rachel completed an in-depth assessment of my symptoms, broken down by the different systems of the body, as well as lab work to assess what was going on with my stress hormones, immune system function, and various other system functions that were affecting my health. Based on these assessments, Dr. Rachel was able to provide effective treatment using supplements and dietary guidelines to address my specific needs, and after a month or two of following these guidelines, my symptoms have completely dissipated. In addition to Dr. Rachel's extensive knowledge and ability to diagnose even the most subtle health issues, she has a warm and compassionate demeanor that has left me feeling extremely important and cared for. SO many thanks to Dr. Rachel. This experience has completely woken me up to the importance of finding the root cause of any health issue and treating specifically that, as well as how much of a role diet plays into that equation. Life-changing!! read more

I originally turned to Dr Rachel for what I thought was adrenal fatigue. In my initial consultation, I was so incredibly impressed by how Dr. Rachel was able to read the results from previous testing done by an Endocrinologist and provide so much insight into what might be happening internally to produce my symptoms. Through further testing and healing protocols, I've gone from rushing home from work to crash on the couch for hours until bed time, to having complete control of my energy levels. I'm beginning to intimately understand my body's functions and what it feels like to be truly healthy. My new knowledge has empowered me to make lifestyle choices for myself that I know will make my body and mind feel good in the short and long term. Dr. Rachel's comprehensive understanding of how the body works is truly unmatched. If you're frustrated with your health, energy, and the lack of answers you're receiving from traditional doctors, please DO NOT HESITATE to book your initial consultation. I promise you it will be time, money, and energy well spent. read more

I was having hard time focusing at work, my brain wasn't fully functioning, dozing off driving or fatigue, sugar craving, my face kept on peeling no matter what product I put on it and when I pick at it it becomes an open painful sore, and having digestive issues. Medical doctor couldn't find anything wrong with me. When Dr. Rachel done some testing on me and reaffirmed that something was going on, I was excited. Turned out I had autoimmune disease. I knew I wasn't crazy. She did the functional test on me and I was at level 10 pain in the beginning. I love how Dr. Rachel listened to me and gave me not just food advice but also emotional support. I also enjoy her analogies to help me understand anatomy. Today I'm at level 0 pain. I don't doze off at the wheel or suffer from fatigue, my face doesn't have open sore, and my mind is sharper than ever...I can focus!! I never knew how much food affected my life and the freedom I have gained once I jumped into this healing journey! My husband saw a huge change in me and will be going himself :) read more

This is my second review in regards to Dr. Rachel Yan. Sense my last review in August, my energy is through the roof. I am now able to eat the foods I was sensitive to. As well, due to malabsorption, leaky gut and sleep issues my weight plummeted to 144lbs. My sleep is amazing these days, in fact I just slept 9 hours and have no trouble following asleep any longer. My weight has shot up to 160lbs, I look healthy and athletic endeavors are beyond impressive. The best part about Dr. Rachel, is she sincerely cares for each of her patients as family. She is relentless and will get to the bottom of any situation with assurance, that there's always a fix. She isn't in this for profit, and actually educates you along the way, so you can maintain your health through your life. Dr. Rachel, doesn't want you to have to be a lifetime patient, although I see myself being such, because I haven't just found a doctor, I found a mentor and friend. Even if you aren't struggling with your health, I highly suggest going to her to optimize your monkey body! read more

When I first came to see Dr. Rachel, I was living an unhealthy life in addition to working at a couple very labor-intensive, backbreaking jobs. As a result, I was wearing myself down at a rapid rate and at way to young of an age. In addition to that, I was also pretty unaware of the power of nutrition and just how much it can affect your overall health. Over time, Dr. Rachel was able to help break my sugar addiction, give me some healthy alternatives, and put my body back together in phases. She carries such a passionate, educated, and caring perspective about health and wellness, that it becomes contagious the more you get to know her to do the same for yourself. She is such a giving person and is so understanding for people who are struggling to make ends meet but really need the help. Since knowing Dr. Rachel she has really helped pave the way for where I need to go in life and has definitely changed my life for the better. I hope she can do the same for you! read more

Dr. Rachel Yan is the practitioner's practitioner! I am privileged to have her as one of my mentors while I continue my training as a Nutrition Therapy Practitioner. I recently participated along with several other nutrition practitioners in the Energetics of Healing Mastermind Course created by Dr. Rachel and it was a powerful experience! Not only does Dr. Rachel understand the nuts and bolts of Functional Nutrition, she has a unique way of teaching other practitioners key elements to becoming successful in the field. The Energetics of Healing took us through a guided journey of self-discovery; we were invited to find our power center by letting go of old ideas, expanding on our goals, and creating our own Narnia!! I will not only carry what I experienced through this course into my nutrition practice but throughout my own healing journey and everyday life! Thank you, Dr. Rachel, for your generosity of spirit!! read more

I have been under the care of Dr. Rachel for about a month now and I can truly say that it has been a very positive and transformative experience thus far. Dr. Rachel has been able to show me how my body reacts to certain kinds of food and how they help or detract from my overall health. Her focus is on finding the root of the problem and fixing it rather than merely treating the symptoms. My digestive issues have dramatically improved since the short time I've been under her care and continue to get better with every passing day. I'm very impressed with Dr. Rachel's vast knowledge on her field of expertise and how she is able to clearly set short and long term health goals without it being overwhelming. She is very attentive towards her patients and is very easy to get a hold of if one has any questions regarding treatment. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone looking to improve their health! read more

A friend referred me to Dr. Rachel after having much success with her healing issues more traditional doctors in our healthcare system couldn't even pinpoint, let alone fix. For me, my health issues/struggles are relatively mild right now, but based on the women in my family and their health issues, I know that if I don't do something today to understand, heal and take care of myself for the long term, in a decade or two, I'll likely be dealing with some serious issues. I've been working with Dr. Rachel and so far have been super impressed with her approach, manner, testing and analysis. I'm just beginning the treatment phase and am already feeling better physically as well as personally empowered to take care of myself as well as my daughter so she's set up for a healthier future! read more

I highly recommend Dr. Rachel! I was at a loss with my thyroid and none of the medications were working. I finally ran across Dr. Rachel from the Body Awareness Project and consulted with her about my health issues. From day 1, she began helping me. She listened and truly heard my "cry for help". I worked with her for 9 months getting my GI track back to working more optimally to allow better digestion and absorption. Since working with her, I have not had to change my dose on thyroid medications, receive an iron transfusion, have abdominal upset/bloating, and have been able to lose 20 pounds all by working on my GI track. After every session with her, I felt so happy that someone finally understood what I was going through! You will not be disappointed with Her or her methods! read more

Dr. Rachel is my health savior! She helped me resolve a complicated web of health issues and as a result, I feel better now than I have in years! I started seeing Dr. Rachel in 2018 for gut issues, hormonal imbalance, insomnia, amenorrhea, anxiety and adrenal fatigue. She was extremely thorough in learning my health history and recommending the right tests to get to the root cause. Step by step, we worked together to address each concern in a holistic way, while also revamping my stress management and self-care routine. In a year of working together, I went from feeling like I would never again feel good or "normal" to getting back the life I craved. I am so grateful for this practice and for Dr. Rachel's comprehensive, holistic approach to health. read more

Dr. Rachel is a miracle worker. She took me from a non-functioning adult overcome with so many issues my organs were slowly failing at 29yrs old to being reborn into the healthiest version I've ever been. She eliminated a disease I was taking hardcore medication for, for over 12 years to now off ALL medications and functioning as if nothing was ever wrong. She is a master at her craft and comes at you with a confidence you can't ignore. Dr. Rachel takes on the imbalances of your body in a holistic approach while coaching you through the mental and emotional stages of true healing. I recommend Precision Empowered Health to anyone seeking a whole body healing path and cannot give enough praise to the magic she creates. read more

When I first started seeing Dr Rachel I thought I was fairly healthy and knew a lot about health. But I was constantly tired, addicted to coffee, struggling to loose weight, and was experiencing gas and bloating after eating healthy foods. Through testing Dr Rachel pin pointed what my issues were and was able to recommend a plan to help me. I feel so much better now and have truly experienced how well my body can function! I have consistently been impressed by her knowledge and ability to access symptoms and then decipher the root causes. I have learned so much and have grown as a person in my health journey! I would highly recommend booking a consultation with her ASAP! read more

I have been working one-on-one with Dr. Rachel for a couple of months through her Phase One program (testing/diagnosis focused) and have decided to proceed with Phase Two (monitored treatment protocols). I am impressed with her knowledge and passion for functional medicine, and her direct and efficient style is a good fit for me. I have found her support thus far to be of great benefit as I navigate the long and winding path towards more optimized health. I feel confident in recommending Precision Empowered Health to anyone seeking a thorough and evidence-based approach to healing complex health challenges. read more

Dr. Rachel is an amazing practitioner. I originally went to her for SIBO treatment. After we did a series of tests we discovered more underlying issues and we have been treating me ever since (over 8 months). She is diligent in her work. She explains everything out, is caring and extremely supportive. She is not only healing me physically, but emotionally and mentally as well. Each time we speak, she adds another layer of support or practice to ensure that I'm not overwhelmed trying to incorporate everything at once. I would not be progressing the way I am without her guidance and tutelage. read more

This is life changing work. Unbelievable. Dr. Rachel was able to connect the dots for me in a way that was easy to understand and set me on a path that I was able to succeed on. I've gone from 10 years of chronic back pain from digestive issues to being pain free. I've tried a lot of different modalities out there, but none of them got to the root of the issue like she did. I feel empowered now and in control of my health and life, and it only keeps getting better. I keep reaching new heights of health that I thought were lost forever because of aging. Thank you so much Dr. Rachel! read more

So far so good. I'm into phase 2 and I'm able to walk again without a walker or cane after 5 months of swollen joints on the left side of my body. All of my treatment has been done though telemedicine. I am feeling so much better and so excited to get my body healed and work on my family as well! Dr. Rachel has broken my treatment into several protocols since I have some advanced issues. I love to brag to everyone that my healing was done without prescription medication and I have recommended Dr. Rachel to several friends. She's a ball of joyful energy and sweetness! read more
