    I've witnessed firsthand how much my husband has benefited from his treatments with Laurie. Since he started seeing her, I've noticed a profound shift in his overall well-being—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. His energy levels have improved, and there's a sense of balance and calm that I hadn’t seen in him before.

    Laurie’s care goes beyond the surface, bringing a deep sense of healing that has had a lasting impact on our lives. I'm grateful for the positive changes I've seen in my husband and highly recommend Laurie to anyone seeking a true, holistic approach to health.

    You could spend the rest of your lifetime searching for a better, more capable, more compassionate healer than Dr. Laurie and come up completely empty-handed. In fact, I'd be willing to place a small wager that is exactly how it would play out. In my estimation Dr. Laurie is a True Healer in that she does not simply try to relieve or mask symptoms, but rather aims to lead you to your healthiest, highest vibrational self. Laurie's intuition and integrity are second to none. Her compass is aimed True North and it does not waiver. She uses natural, holistic modalities and only resorts to herbs and/or supplements when she is very clear that is what will serve you best. I never once felt like she was trying to sell me something or encouraging me to take excessive amounts of things. In fact, it was quite the opposite. She consistently encouraged me to simplify my supplement regimen and focus more on my diet, exercise and lifestyle choices. This was a very difficult approach for me to embrace, being that I've always been in search of more supplements and magic pills that would "fix" me. When I finally started to really take ownership of my food intake specifically, I began to realize why Dr. Laurie was so adamant that I look first to food for my medicine. I am not exaggerating when I say that when I showed up to Dr. Laurie's office for the first time, I was physically, spiritually and emotionally broken. Dr. Laurie firmly, yet compassionately led me back to a My Path. I had spent the better part of half a life avoiding, mistreating and numbing myself, so the journey wasn't always easy and the results didn't happen overnight, but upon meeting Dr. Laurie for the first time, I never once questioned whether I was in the right place or not. To be honest, I don't think I've ever left a review for anything, ever in my life. But because I relied on past reviewers as my entry point to ultimately deciding to reach out to Dr. Laurie, I feel the urge to write this review in hopes that it might help somebody (or somebodies) who are looking for guidance from a world-class human and healer. This is a different kind of medicine/healthcare than many of us are used to. It is not some "magical" modern technology or pill that promises to instantly "fix" you. My advice would be to commit to 5-10 visits/treatments with Dr. Laurie. Take it seriously. Give yourself the time and grace to rest and recalibrate after the first few treatments, as it may stir some stuff up and you may feel tired, etc. Monitor closely the changes you experience over 5-10 treatments. My guess is that you will find yourself on a new path. If you feel the call, trust that path and in a few Months you will likely find yourself in a new, better place. I strongly urge you to at least try this for yourself. If you won't do it for yourself, do it for the people and the world around you. Do not underestimate the impact the best version of yourself can have on this world and the people you love. ​"If you want to awaken all of humanity, then awaken all of yourself. If you want to eliminate the suffering in the world, then eliminate all that is dark and negative in yourself. Truly, the greatest gift you have to give is that of your own self-transformation." ​​​​​​​​-Wang Fu ***** This review was written by my husband and posted from my account. It is based on his experience after seeing Dr. Laurie for approximately 18 months. ****

    Laurie is a miracle worker! I am so grateful for her treatments and holistic approach. I was recommended by a co-worker back in Jan'20 for acupuncture recovery while healing from a broken leg. I received much more than expected from your typical doctor's visit. Her recommendations for homeopathic remedies are so refreshing! She is very kind, thorough and provides wonderful insights into health and wellness. I now, Jan'21 find myself back to her for a seemingly incurable hand irritation (think contact dermatitis). I spent nearly a year trying to figure it out with a topical steroid/mineral oil aka Vaseline/Aquaphor (just don't) that was recommended by a doctor. She nailed it with natural topical oil, herb capsules, floral essence tincture and acupuncture. I am now cured of the annoying irritation which took only one week from my visit. I didn't realize how much it was impacting my daily life which consisted of constant worry of an allergy reaction and itching. I am really doing a re-haul on my body these days and have her to thank.
