So patient and helpful and knowledgeable about holistic health options! Michelle is awesome!
Unbelievably smart and professional. She is the person to go to for osteoporosis.
Pleased with the whole visit 😊 ☺️ 😄 😀.
Fabulous!
What a great resource of information Michelle was. So thankful that I was put in touch with her.
I’ve had two appointments now, and both were excellent. I feel like she was well prepared for my visit and very educated on the problem I was having with osteoporosis. I also appreciate that she came with a very specific game plan moving forward. I very much appreciate that she took time with me as well, I didn’t feel rushed and she did a great job communicating on the phone as well as with email to follow up our appointment. Highly recommend her.
She is the best I’ve ever been to
Very knowledgeable and sensible. Great information shared.
