“Dr. Meg is amazing. She helped to balance my hormones and gut health before conceiving my first baby and I had the most amazing pregnancy. She takes the time to listen and get to the root cause of things, can’t recommend her enough.”
“Dr. Patel is a wonderful human being and an excellent doctor. In a time when many focus on treating the symptoms, Dr. Patel focuses on getting to the root cause in the most natural and supportive way possible. He helped me move through perimenopause and other related issues in a way that I felt I had a true partner in my health. At my most recent visit I had the best lab results I have ever had, and I can definitely tell in the way I feel.”
