I'm so grateful for Candice's broad expertise and knowledge of gut health and wholistic treatments. She is a great listener. She guided me through successful treatment for a severe gut disease that was causing malnutrition and weight loss without using antibiotics. That was an answer to prayer because antibiotics for another condition gave me a severe bacterial infection. She is very adept at knowing whether to stay the course on treatment or make a shift if there are issues. I would happily recommend her very highly!!

I'm so thankful to be in the functional medicine program and in Candice's care. My situation is complicated and she's navigated me through treatment for my particular problems, and not just the symptoms but also the underlying causes. She's encouraging and listens well. She has a comprehensive knowledge of herbal and food medicines that target specific issues. She answers my questions and concerns with patience and explains the meds and expectations. Plus she's so warm and caring. I always feel reassured and confident after our visits.
