“Dr Woolf is professional, patients and provides customized care for his patients. He's one of the best NUCCA doctors I've met and I feel truly blessed to have found him. My symptoms have improved significantly after only a few weeks treatment with him, and he wants to genuinely see me improve. He only want you to see him if there's a true need, unless some other doctors who want you to go back every week to make more money.“

“Went in with constant, severe left shoulder pain. My MRI noted I have multi-level cervical (neck) degeneration and nerve compression (C4, C5, and C6), with one level compression is close to the spinal cord. My lowest level of pain throughout the day was a 5; at night it was at 9. Couldn't sleep for weeks. Prescription corticosteriod and muscle relaxant provided some relief, but was only temporary. Massage made it worse. Acupuncture helped with some pain relief, but again temporary. Atrophy and shoulder weakness soon followed, I could barely lift my left arm.

Then I signed up for the treatment package at Dudum. Within 3 sessions, my should pain improved by 60%. By two weeks I was improved to 80%. Within a month, I stopped thinking about my shoulder at all.

Couldn't be happier with the results. And the staff is amazing, charismatic and friendly.

I recommend not messing up your neck or back. But if you do, this is the place you want to go.“

“He's like a body magician. I've never let anyone crack my neck but he's really good at it. He even did my 4 and 5 year old grandaughters. My 4 year old grandaughters coordination is so much better and her nervous system has improved. My 5 yrar old grandaughter trusts him and thats huge because she doesn't like the word doctor but let him adjust her without freaking out. My neck pain is improved. I was recovering from a bad cold and he adjusted my chest/back and my lungs felt more open and light. I felt like smiling and hadn't smiled in days. I look forward to every appointment and know I'll walk out feeling adjusted, happy and refreshed. Thank you Dr. Huang!“

“I highly recommend Dr. Cheruba Prabakar.

Over the last two years, she has helped me navigate everything from future fertility decisions after having three children, to breast cancer risk given my family history, to now exploring hormone replacement therapy and all of the nuances that come with it.

What I appreciate most is that she takes the time to look at the whole picture. When needed, she's connected me with other specialists and helped me build the right team so I could make informed decisions with confidence.

I've sought information through various third-party women's health companies, but none have come close to the depth, thoughtfulness, and individualized care that Dr. Prabakar provides. I'm learning that HRT is rarely straightforward, and what will set her apart is how carefully she reviews my history, symptoms, and bloodwork before making recommendations.

Her bedside manner is warm, knowledgeable, thorough, and never makes me feel rushed. As a physician affiliated with Northwell Health, she brings a level of expertise and professionalism that has given me tremendous confidence in her guidance.

Private care is certainly an investment and a luxury for most, but I genuinely believe Dr. Prabakar saves her patients significant time, confusion, and heartache by helping them make thoughtful decisions from the beginning. I leave every appointment feeling informed, supported, and confident in my next steps. I feel incredibly fortunate to have her in my corner.“

“I came here to focus on my shoulder having some mobility issue, they took me in and even had me get X-rays before to monitor the recovery of my shoulder (had shoulder surgery). Doug had me do this prior to any work as he wanted to ensure no further damage would be done. Which I never even thought to do before, the care that was given was top notch!“

“There’s a lot of difference in the way i feel, much lighter and a good sense of humor.“

“A friendly and professional staff always there to help you back to a healthier self. Adjustments are gentle yet effective. I’m very happy with the results I’ve experienced from coming here.“

“I went in with a stiff neck that just wouldnt loosen up no matter what I tried. They listened to me describe where it hurt and actually seemed to understand whats going on. The adjustment was quick but really effective, I felt the tension release right away. Had some follow up advice on stretches to do at home which I actualy started doing a little bit. Place was busy but they kept things on time so I wasnt sitting around. Definately worth going back if you have a similar issue, it made a big difference.“

“When you want to heal and get there fast, Dr Varela is a terrific partner to have. First, she made me comfortable and educated with the direction of our treatment plan. Cutting edge treatments can be a little frightening but going through it with Dr Valera made all the difference in the world. Thank you for coming to work each day with an attitude to heal and an amazing bag of options for us damaged folks. Having my past life becoming more of my current life is in this man’s opinion…. Priceless ❤“

“So excited to have found medical help with Dr. Greg Yaeger. He was thorough and looking forward to my treatments“

“I wanted to express my gratitude for Sahar Berjis's incredible kindness, patience, and attention to detail. Every time I come in I feel completely at ease and supported she always to take the time to listen and truly address my needs.
She doesn't stop until a problem it's truly solved.
Beyond her skills her warm and exceptional character truly shines through in everything she does.“

“I went to Brielle for the first time on Saturday and I’m honestly blown away. She adjusted me perfectly; gentle but strong, precise, and intuitive to what my body needed. She used laser therapy as well.

Her space is the cutest with plants, natural light, peaceful energy, and best of all her tiny dog walking on you during the session ☺️ best experience ever.

I’ve been seeing a male chiropractor for years, but after one visit with her, I’m officially converted.“

“Embarking on a clean eating and detox journey was one of the best decisions I've made. In a world overwhelmed with information and constant choices, this program brought me a sense of peace and clarity. I lost 10 healthy pounds—without sacrificing muscle—and continue to see progress even after reintroducing other foods into my diet. The cleanse, which I started in June, was thoughtfully planned out, eliminating the stress of deciding what to eat. I was still able to cook for my family while staying committed to my goals, and I noticed a significant reduction in cravings. I no longer feel the urge to snack or finish foods that my body doesn't truly need. This experience has helped me reset my habits and reconnect with what nourishment truly feels like.“

“I feel successful at 2 months in to a 6 month program! I am so grateful for the improvements to my health that I have experienced so far. After trying on my own and only feeling worse over time, this is a very welcome step towards progress that I have been hoping for. The education is what I have needed. The whole body and mind approach makes perfect sense for a lifelong commitment. I am looking forward to the next phases toward my goals. Thank you to Dr Kobsar and team!“

“I went in for an advanced allergy treatment and I happened to have an incredibly bad headache that day. Walter did some acupressure and another modality on my head and neck, and my headache went away! I was incredibly grateful for this additional care.“

“Hello, I recommend Leni Pratte very highly as a spiritual guide and life coach. I feel she is someone who takes these responsibilities very seriously and with the utmost integrity.

I am an old school fan/advocate of spiritual meditation, having gotten familiar with it in the 70s. And with Leni, the ability to choose what practices and for what purposes were still in my hands. I did not feel I was being squeezed into a plan. I was continuing my own path of self-discovery as before, but enhanced by guidance with a better understanding of meditative/contemplative
principles. For instance, there was a time when set and setting considerations were not basic assumptions. Grounded intention was not really a thing. With Leni, there is a solid foundation in conscious purpose and preparation.

I have also tried out more clinical approaches, and I much prefer the warm healing atmosphere and feeling of personal care I received in Leni’s sacred space. Very intentionally holding space, a term unheard of in my early meditation days, Leni gave me a sense of safety that I’d never experienced before.

And after the main “treatment”, Leni’s care in grounding, with a generous and delicious meal was really gratifying and grounding. There were psychological and spiritual dimensions to the sessions and integration. Attachment, projection, dysregulation and other kinds of issues arose. I experienced some challenges and Leni was adept at guiding without pushing, so as to not trigger defenses and thereby giving way to resolutions.

All in all the experience was a 10 out of 10. It was okay how inexperienced with the yogic breathing - Leni patiently guided me through it. The lasting benefit of the sessions was a reduction in my automatic, somewhat compulsive behavior. I am happier to go about the day-to-day without certain annoyingly indulgent and persistent preoccupations.“

“I can't say enough about the amazing staff and Dr. Mahsa! She has been a key resource to my family in terms of healing from injuries, detoxing and maintaining wellness on our journey to better health. There is something magical about working with a real healer whose simple touch makes an immediate difference in making you feel better. Dr. Mahsa is wonderfully kind, patient and empathetic. I highly highly recommend her practice for adults, families and children. I will be a life long client. :)“

“My experience at Jumpstart MD, especially the Walnut Creek office, has been truly life-changing. The entire team has supported me with guidance, accountability, and steady encouragement. Because of their care, I’ve not only lost weight but built a healthier, more intentional lifestyle that I can sustain. I’ve felt seen, supported, and never alone in this journey.

I also want to acknowledge Dr. Jason Servatius, whose leadership, kindness, and patient-centered approach made an enormous impact on my success. His ability to listen, guide, and motivate created a foundation that transformed my health from the inside out. His presence elevated the entire clinic.

I was deeply saddened to learn that he is no longer with Jumpstart. His absence is felt, and it’s a significant loss for patients who relied on his expertise and exceptional care.

Despite the change, I remain grateful for everything the Walnut Creek team has done to help me reach my goals. They have truly made a difference in my life.

I would recommend Jumpstart MD to anyone seeking a structured, supportive, and genuinely caring team to help transform their health.“

“Bay Area Trainers - and especially my trainer, Paula - has made the impossible, possible! 🙌🏼 I’ve been struggling with consistency since 2020, but having regular training sessions with Paula for 3 months has finally given me the motivation I need to keep going. I gained 6.5 pounds of muscle in that short time - I can feel it and see it! 💪🏼 My energy level is up and I’m excited to exercise for the first time in years. I highly recommend! 🩷“

“I have sent many clients to Sheena and they have all had amazing results from her personalized programs“

“I’ve been working with Dr. Lazarus and his team for about three years now and it has been life-changing. When I first came to him, I was struggling with brain fog, forgetfulness, and a general sense of being unwell, despite being told I was healthy. After being brushed off by primary care providers who said it was just stress and a part of getting old, I felt lost.

The services Dr. Lazarus has offered me have been exceptionally thorough, which I truly appreciate because I am a detail oriented individual. From comprehensive blood work to in depth hormonal and gut health analysis, his approach gets to the root causes that traditional paths often miss. For anyone who’s been misdiagnosed or left without answers, this is what healthcare should be about—thoughtful, root-cause-driven care. The Lazarus Method program helped me uncover deficiencies that allowed me to understand what was happening in my body and take proper action. Within months, I felt like myself again!!

Over time, Dr. Lazarus hasn’t just become a provider, I’ve added him to my trusted team of health professionals. Now, I can’t imagine my health journey without his guidance. He’s an essential part of my support system, and I look forward to continuing this partnership for the long haul.“

“I am so so incredibly thankful for these guys. Over the pandemic and growing the fam etc, I had stopped being active compared to when I was younger. Once I decided to get back into shape, I was looking for a low pressure environment that works with my schedule and doesn’t push me to the edge (think crossfit etc, never been a fan). And perfect workout is exactly that, been going there for about 2.5 months now and have lost 10% of body weight. It has to be coupled with good eating habit, no workout is pure magic, but this one does come close. The 20 mins length is perfect, scheduling is easy and trainers are super kind, shout out to Liz! Thank you so much!!“

“Tina is a mind body and spirit whisperer! I started training with Tina to get my body strength back after an illness. Which I have, but I realized very quickly, thanks to Tina's expertise, that I needed to retrain my thoughts also. Tina gave me the moves and awareness to let my entire mind, body, soul, and spirit to recover and move forward with success.
I am grateful for Tina and Live Good.“

“My trainers at the perfect workout in Walnut Creek make it easy and fun to get in my weekly workouts. I appreciate their positivity and I was excited to see result with just the short yet targeted 20 min workouts. I would highly recommend you give it a try!“

“Body Love has changed my life. I used to have very low energy and have young kids which were almost impossible to keep up with. Thanks to their program I am not only keeping up with them, I'm outlasting my kids toddler energy. I've also lost some weight, look great but most importantly feel amazing. Can't thank them and or recommend them enough“

“True Healer – Angie Schuba Has Changed My Life
I cannot recommend Angie Schuba highly enough. As my acupuncturist, she has provided not only exceptional care but genuine healing during one of the most frightening times in my life. After being diagnosed with gallstones, I was in significant pain and facing the prospect of surgery. I felt overwhelmed, anxious, and unsure of my options.
Then I found Angie.
From my very first session with her in Orinda, I felt safe, heard, and deeply cared for. Angie is warm, intuitive, and incredibly thorough. She took the time to understand my symptoms, explained everything with clarity and compassion, and created a personalized treatment plan that included acupuncture, carefully selected herbal remedies and changes in my diet.

After just four sessions, I’m astounded by the results:
• My gallstone-related pain has completely subsided
• My acid reflux, which used to flare up daily, now happens only rarely—and that alone has brought me so much relief
• My digestion and overall energy have improved dramatically
• I’ve even lost 9 pounds—without trying—just by following the simple, sustainable changes Angie recommended
Thanks to Angie’s guidance, I’ve completely transformed my diet and lifestyle.

I feel empowered and hopeful in a way I didn’t think was possible. Even more incredible—my doctors and gastroenterologist have told me that surgery is no longer urgent. For now, it’s off the table. The possibility of avoiding surgery altogether, or even just postponing it through the summer, is a tremendous relief and a testament to the efficacy of Angie’s care.

Angie Schuba is not only reasonably priced, she is a gifted practitioner with a rare combination of clinical expertise, emotional intelligence, and a deep commitment to her patients’ well-being. She explains everything in a way that’s easy to understand and truly makes you feel seen, heard, and supported.
If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond for your health, Angie is that person. She has made an immeasurable difference in my life, and I’m so grateful to have her in my corner. The world needs more healers like her. I highly recommend her.
