Patients Say it Best

Their support during my chemo recovery was more helpful than anything else I tried.
— L.B., New York
My anxiety was so bad! I had trouble sleeping, my heart would race all the time and I would feel tingly everywhere. I was scared to leave my house and even postponed college. Honestly, I was scared I was dying. I took Chinese herbs for three months. I feel so much better in every way. I can sleep, no more tingles and I even enrolled in school. Can the teas make you more self confident? I don’t know but I am! The doctors helped me so much. Don’t suffer any longer, go see them.
— M.R., New York
My digestion improved dramatically — no more reflux, no more guesswork.
— E.S., Remote Patient
I didn’t believe that I could get better from my auto-immune issues. My inflammation markers are down, my blood work is on track and I am usually symptom free. If I ever flare a bit, I just call Dr. A.
— K.M., New York
I treated long-COVID virtually with Dr. A’s herbal formula. Within a week, my cough improved and my digestive symptoms eased by 75%. The telemedicine experience was seamless and supportive.
— B.T., Remote Patient
