Prior to three years ago I was a 20 year old who was the epitome of health. I was a college student, personal trainer, and a busy training for marathons. Over the span of the next few years my physical body significantly declined into a state of minimal function and pursuit of trying to get well. I suffered from low blood pressure and passing out, hormonal imbalances, blood sugar abnormalities, low energy levels that would barely allow me to function for more than an hour at a time, severe food allergies, anemia, hypothermia, absence of bowel movements, depressed colonic nerves, dizziness, severe nausea and lack of appetite, and chronic debilitating headaches. As you can imagine, this rocked my world. I never would have imagined my health could decline to such a state. My life became somewhat of a “professional patient” lifestyle as the best approach of treatment could not be decided. Doctor’s used a myriad of medications and tests as trial and error in trying to treat symptoms. Things were not getting better and my life goals were not being reached because I was too sick. It became a continuous cycle of appointments and minimal health. I honestly did not know when I would see the light at the end of the tunnel and was getting desperate to regain my health. I was doing everything I could to get well but nothing seemed to be working.
A few months later Dr. Albert was brought into my life with his natural approach to health care. I am the type of person who has to actively see improvements to believe that something will work. Studying pre-med in college made me somewhat skeptical that his approach would actually help, but we dove into treating the wide array of symptoms. Through aggressively attacking the multiple symptoms with Dr. Albert’s many techniques, my health has flourished.
Over the past 3 months I have seen drastic improvements such as ; minimal headaches, blood pressure returning to normal, bowel movements returning, improvement in nausea, and skyrocketing energy levels. In fact I ran for the first time in two and a half years and have energy to get through my days and even begin graduate school soon. Doctors that I have been seeing at the Mayo Clinic document improvements in my nerve function, hormonal imbalances, and all together well being. They advised me to continue doing what I have been. The people around me can’t believe how much better I am doing compared to just a few months ago. I am no longer taking any steroids or any other medications except for nutritional supplements which Dr. Albert has taught me the importance of. I can say with complete confidence that this is exactly what I need to continue doing to reach my optimal health. I understand that I did not get like this overnight and it takes time and hard work to once again be healthy.
Other than my primary care physicians who I don’t know what I would do without, there have been none as passionate about the wellness of their patients as Dr. Albert. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this approach has done me more beneficial than anything else that has been prescribed. Our determination to take control of my health has paved way to wellness. My life is a testimony of how much the things Dr. Albert offers at his clinic work. I could not have been more grateful to finally see light at the end of the tunnel and someone to take such and interest. It is the best feeling in the world. It was once said that “we make a living by what we get but a life by what we give.” Dr. Albert has been a tremendous blessing to me with the time and effort he has poured into my life and health.
