I know you hear this so much from your loyal listeners, but you really have made all the difference in my life and in the lives of members of my family. I E-Mailed you last September when I had my one and only gall bladder attack and my surgeon got very angry at me when I told him I wanted to try a natural approach to controlling (or curing) this condition before I would decide on surgery. He told me loudly and angrily that I had no alternatives except to have the surgery. Since I had been listening to you for a long time, I knew I did have alternatives and told him so, and advised him I didn’t think we would get along together. I also turned in a complaint to my HMO patient representative that this particular surgeon on their staff was rude, agressive, and intimidating. You E-Mailed me back a reply immediately and were very pleased with my decision and urged me on.
Well, I’ve been working with Dr. Ross Kerievsky at Naturopathic Family Care here in Phoenix. He put me on a special diet along with digestive enzymes and lots of patient care and support. After 3 months, I was totally symptom free and have been so for the past 4 months. I continue with my new lifestyle and diet and feel wonderful … There is life after gall bladder attack!!!
Thanks for being there every week with your good advice and for introducing me to the natural way of healing and for the “intestinal fortitude” to say NO to surgery as my first choice.
It is really too bad that so many of the doctors practicing today do not become educated in less agressive and more natural methods of treatment. Most of them have no interest in discussing alternatives. Maybe someday things will change. I hope for that day.
Yours truly,
Barbara B.
