Patient Reviews

"Sharon, the colon hydrotherapist, is truly a gentle, kind soul. She made my daughter feel comfortable." 6/6/13

"Dr. Jan put me right on the schedule today although I was a walk-in emergency patient. I was very thankful for her." 6/3/13

"My name is Dr. Mark Chalfant- I am a Chiropractor and Clinical Nutritionist, but more importantly my 4 year old son Karson had 1 isolated tooth significantly decayed. I have several close friends who are dentists and surgeons and after going to 3 of them (all making a valiant attempt) we did not know what to else to do. My business partner referred us to Dr. Mark McClure and to make a long story short - Dr. Mark is nothing short of amazing along with his right hand man and staff!! I am utterly grateful for the care we received. The 'bedside manner', addressing and respecting my son as an individual, gaining his trust and agreement and the team work that we observed still leaves me in awe - I can only aspire to care for my own patients to the degree that we were cared for at NIHA." 6/3/13

"Dr. Rind and Michael have been extremely helpful while I have had a lot of back pain.They have gone out of their way to help me." 5/20/13

"My wife and I drove 6 hours to get here, and we have no doubt that this is the place to be. The treatment, which was extensive, went much better than I could have ever hoped or expected. There is nothing I can think of that could have been done to improve the superb treatment that I received. I have had several appointments and have completed the plan of treatment (with Dr. Johnson). I am so happy." 3/ 2013

Dr.Levin clearly knows the intricacies of (Lyme Disease) tick borne diseases, making me feel confident I will get better....They've uncovered issues that other doctors before them missed and/or never tested for. I am in good hands to regain a healthy state."  2/21/13

"Dr. Kannankeril was able to identify the root cause of my health issue by recommending advanced testing that most traditional physicians are unaware of...Dr. K revealed to me what was happening to my health on a cellular level, and how to recover and restore my health. I am grateful that I was referred to NIHA." 2/26/13

"So Dr. Rind called me and gave me numbers and even his theory on what is going on. I can't tell you how thankful I am to you....and him. What an amazing MD he is.

"Really enjoyed Scott. He is gifted and intuitive, We are thankful for all we learned today and purpose to follow up. Already checking out those necklaces that can help with EMF protection.

"Writing this on Valentine's Day, a fitting tribute to the warm and welcoming heart of Sharon (heart of a true healer), who has been working with me for about a year now. I couldn't let this opportunity go by without commending her on her tireless patience, kindness and interest in my well-being...this lady knows what she is doing- she must live the lifestyle, because it shows in her bright eyes and smile. The spring in her step is the biggest testimonial  to the power of detoxification and rejuvenation- she has the sprightly gait of a young women, coupled with the wisdom and gentle spirit of a mature one. Having a colonic is a perfect way to be kind to yourself, but having one with Sharon is a special experience because of all the information, insight, and just general grace and goodwill she brings to the process." 2/14/13

"Dr. K is incredibly knowledgable about her patients... she is so warm and patient with us. Dr. K is the best doctor one could hope for." 2/20/13

"So educational and informative- Dr. Gant and Susan are very patient and kind and so very empowering. So thankful I found NIHA."

How do I start the thank you letter to the person who saved my life?

Dr. Rind, I decided to write you a letter as a testimony of my extraordinary recovery under your care, so that my gratitude of your good work can be immortalized in your heart.

In mid-April 2011, I left my full-time job because I was severely fatigued and in constant pain. My stomach filled so quickly, processed food so slowly, and hurt so badly that despite my desire to eat, I was unable to consume much.  As a result, I was rapidly losing weight.  For two and a half months, I had test after test run; saw specialist after specialist; and went in and out of the hospital.  The poking, probing, and prickling only yielded one answer and one solution: low thyroid function and a synthetic hormone replacement.  I immediately started this medical remedy; but continued to get worse.

Months following, I was 97 lbs. at 5' 9" tall and so weak and under-nourished that I could no longer stand.  Thankfully, my primary care physician recommended Dr. Rind, a holistic doctor that specializes in the endocrine system.  The first time I spoke with Dr. Rind, I was confined to my bed and could only sit up periodically.  Although his schedule was full he made time to treat me over the phone.  He even called several times a day to monitor my progress.  (And this was all before I was able to meet him in person!)

With an arsenal of ideas including medications, supplementation, and nutritional interventions, my husband and I started acquiring the tools that would make me well.  During those first consultations with Dr. Rind, I started to eat more, have less pain, and regained enough strength to able to stand and walk again.  Hope was on the horizon thanks to his breadth of knowledge and fervent dedication to my well-being.  Furthermore, he recommended me to a nutritionist who gave me complementary advice on supplements and food.

However, I was not getting enough healing nutrients fast enough; so my husband and I pursued hospital care for total parenteral nutrition (TPN).  Once again, the sole intervention of conventional medicine did not promote my recovery.  In fact, what little progress I made with Dr. Rind disappeared.  Conversely, with the adage “sometimes things get worse before they get better” in mind, we thought the extended hospital visit was a “necessary evil.” For a week I was confined to my hospital bed, subjected to tests, and was not allowed to take supplements or eat healing foods.  I had deep, red bags under my eyes, my hair continued to thin and fall out, and my body continued to atrophy.  I grew weak again and could barely stand.  However, Dr. Rind continued to guide us from afar: he called to speak with us and the hospital doctors while he was treating patients in Brazil! 

Unfortunately, my request for TPN was denied, so I left the hospital in a worse condition than when I came in.  Nonetheless, with continued faith and follow-through in Dr. Rind’s expertise, I began the slow, hard journey to true recovery.  With help from my mom and husband, I visited Dr. Rind and the nutritionist every 4-6 weeks; had vitamin and mineral IVs every week; participated in neurological bio-feedback therapy every week to cope with stress and pain; made and followed a schedule of daily supplements; and learned how to cook and eat following the principals of the Weston A. Price traditional foods diet.  By treating my whole body in conjunction with thyroid disease, Dr. Rind helped to heal my body of many aliments that were linked to my endocrine disorder:  Within 6 months my life-long struggle with allergies diminished, my 10-year diagnosis with Irritable Bowel Syndrome vanished, and the antibodies of thyroid disease continue to decrease.

I am now stronger, healthier, and happier than I have ever been in my life.  Dr. Rind and I continue to work together; but I still consider my past journey to be a remarkable success story—all thanks to his plethora of knowledge and methodical yet thoughtful care.  He is truly the best physician I have found.  He supports and encourages me; and most importantly, he gave me my life back! Thank you, Dr. Rind! L.M.  August 10, 2012

"Dr. Coy is awesome. I've been to numerous chiropractors and have never experienced such complete overall care. His in depth knowledge about total care is incredible."

Dr. K is amazing! I have never had a physician spend so much time with me. She truly cares, listens and makes an effort to ensure I understood everything.

Dr. Baldwin took the time to provide explanation. He was a very gentle and caring dentist.

"Dr. Freeman is the best doctor I have ever had. The mysteries of my health are unraveling and I feel confident that I will be able to achieve optimal wellness. Thank you!"

"Dr. McClure and his dental staff are the best of the best in talent, knowledge and personality. They work as a team which is the most effective way to accomplish goals."

"Before my treatment with Dr. McClure I lived in almost constant pain...It's been about 3 months since we moved from DC to our new home in New Jersey and I had considerable improvement in my physical and mental condition. Even though some of my problems still persist (especially low energy and poor bowel function), I haven't had a single severe headache attack during these 3 months. It's a true miracle! Before my treatment with Dr. McClure I lived in almost constant pain. Now I continue my at-home detox treatment and hope to get even better.
I thank God for His blessings, for Doctor McClure, for NIHA and for all wonderful people I met there. Your grateful patient."

My husband lost 40 pounds! Last March, I attended the free nutrition demonstration that Eve Colantoni presented. I had to try the nutrition program. I had been looking for a venue that would address being healthier in a natural way. I even convinced my husband to attend too! We learned so much through the class. The information was practical and direct. We even developed tremendous camaraderie in the class with the other participants since we were all looking to take out health to the next level. We even signed up for the second class to continue the experience. My husband lost 40 pounds during the program following the advice. We both feel younger and look better. I have even shared some of the information with friends. They even drink green smoothies for breakfast now!! I highly recommend this class for anyone wanting to take control of their health and maybe turn back the hands on the clock a bit…or at least slow them down!"

"Seven years ago I injured my ankle. The pain and swelling were constant. I could barely walk. My orthopedist recommended fusing the bones, which he said would cause me to lose all ankle/foot motion. There was no guarantee the pain or swelling would go away. I decided to find an alternative to that approach. Dr. Rind treated my ankle with prolotherapy. After five treatments, all the pain and swelling were gone. Since then, I hike several miles daily on my farm. The pain has not returned."

"I am a professional kickboxer and life long martial artist. I was North American Kick Boxing Champion 1997-1999.1 have been a martial artist most of my life, teaching and practicing.

In the spring of 2000 during training I injured both my knees. I could not teach, train or compete. I was in a tremendous amount of pain. l thought there was no way I would ever participate in my sport again. Because of the pain in my knees I had difficulty teaching my students.

During class one day, one of my students noticed that I was in a lot of pain. He told me his father was a doctor and could help me. That is when I called Dr. Bruce Rind. At this point I had been offered the opportunity to fight the World Champion Kickboxer. I really didn't think there was any possibility of doing it because of the pain in my knees. I came to see Dr. Rind. He treated me with Prolotherapy; nutritional supplements and Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy. I was willing to do whatever it took to get my knees back. Over the next two months, my knees healed! I took supplements Dr. Rind prescribed and had Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy.

I first saw Dr. Rind in May 2000. I began training for the world championship fight in early June. By early July, 1 was able to participate in a full training schedule. I fought July 21, 2000 against the World Champion Kickboxer. I was able to not only compete, but WIN the title! Without Dr. Rind's treatment this would not have been possible. I am grateful that I found Dr. Rind. Without him, I would not only still be in pain, but not able to participate in the sports I love. Thank you, Dr. Rind!"

"Down 16 pounds and LOVING IT! Hadn’t I just heard it all? And didn’t every other diet plan and program require all day and night vigilance? Was I going to carry around special food while traveling and in meetings and business lunches and dinners? Was there any sane way for someone like me to be healthy and lose weight, too? Then came Eve with an easy suggestion to try in the beginning of my day. One change – 16 pounds! And the real miracle is that I really LIKE what I am doing – taste/variety/convenience. I am now incorporating other things that fit into my lifestyle. This is a great course!"

"I can honestly say that in the short three months of working with Eve Colantoni, she has completely changed my life. I have progressed more working with Eve than I have in the ten plus years of working with doctors. She has taught me how to heal my body from years of medication, stress, and illness. I have lost 27 pounds, have the energy to exercise, and can think more clearly. Recently, for the first time I was actually able to relax while vacationing instead of focusing on food allergies and fatigue. Eve has given me a box of tools that allow me to LIVE life, not just endure life. I would recommend Eve to anyone who wants to feel better and wants to learn how to have the energy to enjoy life!"
