Before working with Dr. Jenn, I felt like I was living in two completely different bodies each…read moremonth. For about half the month, I was deep in brain fog, exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected. Nothing really brought me joy, and my nervous system felt like it was constantly buzzing on high. The other half of the month, when I started to feel a bit better, I was mostly just recovering from how depleted I had been. It was an awful cycle. Working with Dr. Jenn has been truly life changing. She didn't just help me understand and regulate my hormones, she supported me through the full experience of perimenopause in a way that felt deeply holistic. She took the time to talk through the psychological, emotional, spiritual, and physical shifts I was going through, which made me feel seen and understood in a way I hadn't before. Now, I feel like I have my brain back. I have energy again. I can work out at the level I want, which is incredibly important to me as a dance teacher, and I feel happy and present with my child. Most importantly, I feel hopeful about my future again. I truly don't think I would have been able to make some of the big life changes I've been navigating without Dr. Jenn's support. She helped me get to a place where I have the energy, resilience, and clarity to show up for my life. I'm so grateful for her care and would highly recommend her to anyone navigating perimenopause.

As a former ballet dancer, I not only just wanted to be able to sleep again, but also feel stronger and more active. Through the Jumpstart Program, I worked with Dr. Erin and Valerie who were both God-sends. I still have some health issues we're going to focus on over the next year with another program, but I have made such great progress. I'm so grateful to Dr. Erin, Valerie, and this organization as a whole.

I turned to naturopathic medicine because I wanted to understand my body better and receive treatment that was personal and holistic. Seeking treatment with Dr. Rachelle is one of the best decisions I made for my health. Her treatment plan is long term and was aimed at making the changes I needed to sustain my wellness for my lifetime. I am so thankful for her continued guidance and encouragement. She is a wonderful person and I feel that she genuinely cares about her patients' wellbeing and their healing journey. For the first time in awhile, I feel hopeful about my health for the long term. I would definitely recommend Dr. Rachelle's services to anyone who wants to improve their health and wellbeing!

I have asked Dr. Korza for medical advice multiple times. She has proven time and time again to be…read morea life saver. My regular doctors were unable to help me with a skin and inflammation issue that I've had for years, and after speaking with Dr. Korza and following her advice I was able to solve the issue. She was able to help me with supplements and nutritional advice almost immediately as opposed to years of multiple doctors not being able to help me. Most recently she prescribed that I do some blood work and it showed that I was one point away from being pre-diabetic and that I had extremely high iron/ferritin. Again, through her help I was able to get within a normal range, so I am no longer in danger of bing pre-diabetic and my iron/ferritin is down to normal levels. I am feeling much better now on a daily basis because of it, and by getting her expert care, I feel like I have avoided a future health issue. The regular health industry would have only treated me after being diabetic and having a damaged liver that was causing health issues. Thankfully because of Dr. Korza, I was able to avoid all of that, and become healthier now and for the future. I will continue to see her for any current issues that occur and for long term preventive health. I can't recommend her enough.

I have had amazing results working with Dr. Korza with regard to insomnia and hormonal imbalance…read more In fact, it has dramatically changed my life for the better. I was averaging about 0 to 3 hours of sleep per night when I came to see her and each month I endured so much pain around that time of the month. When I saw my Family Pracitioner about these issues she wrote me a prescription for Zoloft. Zoloft? I'm having 10 day periods, pain and insomnia......yes I know that's enough to make someone a bit crazy but why couldn't we just get to the root of the problem? At this point, I decided to go the holistic route and made an appointment with Dr. Korza. The first visit was awesome. No one had ever taken this kind of time to look over my medical history, food and supplement intake, life style, etc. When I came to her I felt uncomfortable, swollen and wrecked from being so tired. The root of the problem: Hormonal Imbalance. She came up with a plan went over it with me in her office and emailed me all of the details. I had to completely change my diet and removed soy, sugar, caffeine, alcohol, dairy, eggs, peanuts and wheat from my diet. I switched to whole foods, low grains and fruit. She also asked me to stop marathon trainings and do lighter, less exercise. She also listened well to me about how many supplements I would be willing to take so she made it incorporate very easy into my regimen and didn't overwhelm me with a bunch of stuff to take all day. I won't lie, changing my diet was a lot of work. And grasping the concept of not running 6 plus miles a day was kind of hard to take. But it was worth the time and investment for my well being. Here it is 10 months later, I am 15 lbs. lighter, I no longer have insomnia. (This is such a victory after struggling for nearly 2 years), my skin looks amazing and I feel so energetic. My pain went away each month and I now only have to deal with 5 days of bleeding vs. 10. I hit 40 and feel better than I did in my 20's! I have also figured out how to simplify my routine so you do get the hang of it and it does become less work after a while. In fact, I really enjoy it and am integrating nutrition into my wellness services at my place of work. There is no magic potion or cure. Dr. Korza will give you the tools to get you on the path to wellness but it is up to YOU to do the work. Remember why you came here and that YOUR health is absolutely worth the time and $$ investment.

I've now been to Core Wellness twice and I really enjoyed both visits. For my first visit, I made…read morean appointment for Thursday and ended up calling them on Wednesday to move my appointment to an earlier time. They were able to change my appointment time with no issues. The office is clean and aesthetically pleasing. Dallas (front desk) was easy to talk to and friendly and Dr. Finnegan was so freaking amazing. I came in with right hip, knee and calf soreness from biking and weight lifting. During the visit she identified my left glute turning off, which in turn was affecting my right hip and knee. She helped me gain my range of motion back on my right side, including my neck. I also had hit my thumb a while back and was having soreness in my wrist and she was able to reduce the pain. In both appointments she was able to identify other points of tension and worked on those as well. Before leaving, she gave me tips on how to correct the posture and how to work on myself at home. I highly recommend Core Wellness as it feels like they are there to make sure you are feeling your best and not just trying to take your money. They also take insurance and will look into whether your insurance does cover chiropractic work!

Update to my original review:…read more I was hoping to update my original review to add a positive twist. While I'm apologetically correcting how she referred to herself (see below), I can only add that Carolyn seems now to be practicing the fine art of "CYA". Backpedaling and claiming innocence. She has reached out to me via voicemail with a request to discuss supplement policy - NOT her profit making off of them. (GREED?) Overall, with her dismissive attitude, defensiveness regarding supplement profits, TREMENDOUS PUSHINESS to purchase supplements from her preferred provider (which would increase her bank account + lack of transparency) and questioning her associate's decisions in my presence, I would still 100%, encourage others to seek holistic healthcare elsewhere. ORIGINAL: I've read off a lot of great reviews regarding Carolyn's chiropractic care. But this is not that. Carolyn is a true business woman first; a functional medicine doctor on the side. Her bedside manner could use a good dose of polishing. She needs to keep in mind who is working for who and keep her ego in check. I sought a functional medicine doctor to address my gut and stress issues stemming from decades-old C-PTSD. From the moment we met, Carolyn went to work on treating these conditions. She provided me with supplement treatment and valuable suggestions, which I followed and began feeling better. Carolyn didn't stop there. She immediately showed interest in replacing specialists I've been working with for years, which was a red flag. I hadn't made these requests, and her interest was unnerving and aggressive. I told her not interested on a couple points yet she continued to push her agenda and added more unnecessary supplements to my treatment plan. Carolyn's website states an option to purchase supplements from other sources than those she prefers. That was appealing to me. What she does not disclose is that she receives a profit off her clients when they make purchases from her preferred supplement provider. Upon learning that Carolyn's preferred supplement provider allows practitioners to set their own price to charge clients, I questioned her about what percentage, if any, she profits. Her response, a DEFENSIVE; "I am not legally or ethically (clearly, MORALS don't count) required to provide a separate written disclosure regarding practitioner margins on supplements or lab tests. Because supplement purchases are optional and not tied to care, a commission disclosure is not mandated." Yet her website states: "Supplements prescribed by our practitioners as part of a personalized treatment plan are considered medical necessities." SO WHICH IS IT? OPTIONAL OR MEDICALLY NECESSARY? "I provide patients with a 10% discount through Fullscript, and the practitioner margin I receive is approximately 25%, which is well below the typical margin received by practitioners." (The other practitioners do use verbiage which disclose a profit.) "Recommendations are made based on clinical judgment and patient need, not financial incentive." So then WHY all the unnecessary additions, even after I told her NO? $$$ I did not purchase every supplement added to my plan In 3 months time, I did purchase $2,781.12 in supplements from which she unapologetically PROFITED. No transparency required. None provided. Icky. A huge turnoff, learning this from a third party. The last time I met with Carolyn, I reported several personal gains. Yay! The treatment was working! Each one of my gains was met by sadly dismissive remarks; followed by her admission of being "nitpicky". (Apologetically edited from original review.) During that same visit, she admonished the nutritionist she works with for recommending an OTC Collagen/Peptides for me. "I'll ask her; we we have a meeting tomorrow" and "you can buy that stuff anywhere". Followed by.....another supplement addition to my plan which she could profit from! The WHY is clearly because Carolyn wasn't making a profit on the OTC brand. By the way, the nutritionist, Magdalena, is lovely and down to earth. If you've read my review this far, I hope you will think very seriously about taking your health concerns to an honest, transparent naturopath with morals (they do exist).
