The cost of "functional health" is very expensive. You will be assigned a health coach and do not…read morehave frequent visits with the actual provider you are assigned to. Although the practice is said to provide patient specific/centered care. The recommendations are generalized and lack follow up. A 6 month care plan can average depending on needs to be 8,000 out of pocket. Discount is provided if paid right away. You are not informed of the reason for the costs or explained about the availability of consultation with the provider. The health coach assigned is a messenger to the provider. Additional testing will be out of pocket such as labs. If your "goals" were not met you will have to pay an additional fee to continue or enroll in a membership. I do not recommend the practice. Please do not get in debt due to this practice that claims they provide functional health. The provider appeared to be more active on the social media account than the time that was spent with my patient care experience. Coming from an individual with health care experience I would not want anyone to fall in the trap of this functional medicine practice.

She is a courageous pioneer who does not accept the common limits of medicine that pain sufferers often encounter. She stays by your side, never judging and always trusting her patients. Dr. Kim takes the time, she never gives up, to deeply understand and problem-solve with her patients. She does NOT do a quick visit, prescribe meds and send you off. Instead, she observes how you move, what you do routinely and like a detective, starts to chip away at what the root causes are that challenge your health. You might get a "quick fix" simply because she is brilliant but generally her patients will spend time, do their homework and invest in their new improved health with her as a team partner/leader. After months of working with Dr. Cathy Kim, I can highly recommend her as a physician who is unlike any other. She has taught me how to correct the way I move, stand and sit so as not to further hurt myself. We have gradually relieved my physical pain in multiple areas. It took 70 years for my body to become what it is so the changes are gradual but completely encouraging! Dr. Kim is a treasure! Besides her extreme intellect, she is a gifted, animated communicator and teacher. She goes to great lengths to make her points even if she has to get on the floor to demonstrate, show photos on her phone or share true stories from her diverse practice. Thank you Dr. Kim for giving me hope, caring above and beyond and for being YOU! I will always appreciate the gifts you have shared that have dramatically improved my health, life and happiness.

They are kind, knowledgeable, and supportive, but the front office and administrative side has been consistently frustrating. The administrative staff is disorganized and unprofessional. They frequently mix up appointment times, give conflicting information, and make even simple tasks feel unnecessarily difficult. They don't use email or an online portal to send updates, test results, or appointment confirmations, which makes it almost impossible to keep track of anything. Everything has to be done by phone, and the communication is often curt or dismissive. Another major frustration is that any time I need bloodwork, I have to schedule a completely separate appointment with a third-party lab instead of being able to do it in-office. This makes routine prenatal care far more inconvenient than it needs to be. I really wanted to have a good experience here, especially since the clinical care from the midwives has been positive, but the front-office management has caused so much stress and confusion that I'm choosing to switch practices. I hope they improve their administrative processes and communication in the future.

Dr Doreo ND in Ojai offers similar services, including EBOO ozone ivs etc for half of what Dr Kate is charging. Dr Doreo is kind and shows she cares by offering free consults and even says she wants to help us get well. She spent over an hour for free on the phone talking about my health issues and my daughter's health issues. She went over everything with me that she could provide to help us get well. And she was even willing to work on prices with us! Her clinic name is Actual Welness and her website is drdoreo dot com. If you need another great option, and If willing to drive just 1 hour, there is Dr Michael Hirt in Tarazana. He is an integrative Harvard and ucla trained dual certified md with over 30 yrs experience with chronic illnesses, mystery illness, cancer, longevity and much more. He has been my doctor since 2017 and is great. He has much more experience than Dr Kate and many more services. Plus a lab that takes insurance nest door attached to his office. He is just $100 per visit after first new patient exam, which is under $300, I think like $285. That's less than HALF Dr Kate's cost. Also, He will have EBOO by end of 2025. His IV prices are also always very reasonable compared to anyone and not inflated like Dr Kate. I'm super disappointed Dr Kate is only catering the rich of Ojai and doesn't appear to care about those that are dealing with chronic illness in the Ojai Valley, unless wealthy. I despise doctors like this; that are obviously only in it for the money. Please call around. You'll discover too that she is charging 2-3x the prices of other integrative / functional doctors for the same treatments and services . I DO NOT RECOMMEND.

They changed my life…read more I was obese for many years and had all but given up. A friend referred me to their clinic because they did the HMR program. I'll admit I was skeptical because I had struggled with my weight for years without success. The Physician I met with asked me to just give up one week of my life and see what happened. After a week of religiously following their regimen I saw results on the scale. I went in weekly for weight checks and vitals and to purchase the shakes. I remained on a liquid fast for about 2 months at which time my clothes were falling off. The clinic then gradually transitioned me back to food and worked with me to teach me how to keep the weight off by keeping track of my protein and caloric intake as well as staying active. I lost about 70 pounds over the course of 7-8 months. Its not magic and there are no shortcuts. This is not something that will happen by just taking a pill. Like any good sustained weight loss program they give you the tools to get you to your weight loss goal. Their protein shakes, bars, puddings, drinks, soups, etc are tasty and convenient ways to help you maximize nutrition while minimizing calories. The bottom line is that you have to put in the work of sticking to the program they help you create. They will provide you with endless moral support and encourage you throughout the process.
