I was beyond impressed with the level of expertise and professionalism of the entire staff at the Blum Center for Health. Having been one of their first patients/customers at the new facility in Rye Brook, I have had several years of experience with the team. The MDs here, especially Dr. McConnell, as well as other practitioners such as their nutritionist Mary Gocke, have truly transformed my health. An integrative and alternative approach is used to treat things as minor as an infection to very serious conditions. The staff such as Lina and Teresa, are very helpful with scheduling and flexible when it comes to working within your budget. The center is also efficient with providing the necessary paperwork to submit to insurance or flex plans. Overall, I have found the services to be very affordable given the level of care and support I have received. This truly represents the one-stop-shop for health and wellness as the center provides guided meditation classes, group detox programs, cooking classes, seminars, and much more! Also love the meals/juices at their organic facility (located in the same shopping center) called Organic Pharmer and their newly opened Scarsdale location! The staff has recently expanded and can't wait to take advantage of all that this one-stop concierge medicine practice offers (without the hefty annual retainer fee). If you are looking for doctors whose medical knowledge is encyclopedic, treats the whole person, and takes the time to be caring even while maintaining a very efficient office, then the Blum Center for Health in the Rye Brook Shopping Center is somewhere you should consider visiting soon! Everyone deserves to have their health in the best possible condition!! read more

I am so grateful to Dr. McConnell and the Blum Center. I have always been a really healthy person and very educated on nutrition and general health. After having two kids, I put myself last on the list and wasn't taking great care of myself. I ended up having a really awful, long, and weird health issue last year which required an enormous amount of testing and visits with multiple specialists. Dr. McConnell saw me through the entire ordeal and was the doctor who helped diagnose exactly what was going on with me and put me back on a path to healing. I am so happy to say that, under her care, I am so much better now and have a renewed sense of health and hope. She looks at your health from every single angle and really spends so much time with you. I was grateful to have her available to me in person and on the phone. She consulted with other specialists as I was going through my testing phase and everyone she spoke with raved about her in depth intelligence and caring demeanor. The doctors at the practice take so much time to get to know you extremely well and deeply care about your health and well-being. I will never go back to a regular general practitioner. It is worth every cent. I am so glad I found this practice and highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about taking charge of their own health! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Blum's for over 15 years. Before she opened Blum Center for health, I have followed her from her previous practices. Dr. Blum is wonderful. She is truly caring and wants to always find an answer to every issue that arises. Regular doctors push drugs and mask issues where Dr. Blum is a detective and finds the cause of the problems. She does this by specialty blood, urine and stool tests that show exactly what is going in the body. Through proper nutrition, vitamins and herbs, there is always a resolution. The center she created is fabulous. I have taken many cooking classes with friends and made great healthy dishes. The meditation classes are very good as well. I can't say enough for all the staff!!!! All so warm and caring. I see Dr. Blum yearly for all my testing to make sure I stay in great health. From time to time there is some tweaking from results from different tests.......Dr. Blum has a plan of action always! Dr. Blum always answers my emails throughout the year when questions arise. I always get a prompt response which puts my mind at ease. If you are looking for a doctor who really cares, knowledgable, and spends as much time as needed with her patients, this is the place to go. There are specialty, integrative doctors as well that joined her center. read more

I have been going to the Blum Center for several years now. I highly recommend the practice as a whole and Elizabeth Greig in particular. I love going there. A very friendly atmosphere and I always learn something new about my health and what my next steps are. Previously I had seen many doctors ,some traditional and some more Holistic, and none of them were able to get to the foundation of my issues. They did not pinpoint my unique health profile. Nor were they as accessible for my questions. I feel Elizabeth is committed to my progress, takes the time to explain her suggested strategy and so she has inspired me over the longterm. It does take time, and discipline to see the changes take place. I am very excited to see the healthy changes occurring especially because they have occurred most particularly through diet, lifestyle changes and supplements. It is SO liberating to discover just how important inner chemistry and diet is for optimal health. And everyone at the Blum Center is clearly "walking the talk"! Thank you, Susan Blum, for creating this wonderful center for health. I feel very fortunate to have discovered you all and your book. I often give your book as a gift to my friends and colleagues. read more

The Blum Center for Health and Dr. Susan Blum have been a very dynamic positive life changing force in the course of my health!! I had been on Synthroid for 20 plus years and traditional medicine only treated the TSH level, up and down the dosage was adjusted and it seemed I always felt too high or too low. After much online research and my St. Louis PCP singing praise of Dr. Susan Blum's work, I started out with the Blum Center's "do it with us" and did have success but felt like I was still missing critical elements in pulling it all together, thus I made the visit to see Dr. Susan Blum face to face and Thank you Lord that I did! I can not put into words how much better I am feeling. Dr. Susan Blum is very down to earth and after being on her program I feel so much energy like I did before I developed the thyroid issues years ago. We are continuing to tweak a few things but I wish I would have had her and the center's information years ago!! thank you Dr. Susan Blum and the entire Blum Center for all your hard work, dedication and for everything you do!! Blessings!! love all of you! Respectfully Gail Ann Esparza read more

I have been a patient at the Blum center since 2015. I was looking for an integrated approach - traditional doctors, well versed in medicine, up to date on the latest science while at the same time seeing my whole self - emotional, physical, lifestyle and considering interventions beyond just medicine: supplementation, nutrition, behavioral changes, etc. Initially I consulted with Elizabeth Greig who was just incredible treating me for Hashimoto's (chronic) and on a couple of occasions a bacterial infection and Lyme's disease. After she left the practice, I am now under the care of Dr. Greenman. Dr. Greenman is warm, empathetic and super smart. Her approach combines lab data/new science infused with great listening. She always pays attention, discusses options, goes into as much detail as I need (I like to know the why behind everything). I know others have commented on the experience with the front desk. Over the 9 years I've been a patient, I must say it does have ups and downs but...having found great care in Blum's doctors, that's what I'm sticking with. read more

Lol @ people saying they don't listen to you or personalize. I think a three hour initial appointment clearly emphasizes their commitment to each individual's health. I go here and know a lot of people who do, for a lot of different reasons, and we are all on different paths towards healing. I feel so welcomed and relaxed here. They are always available to speak to or have more things explained to you, and you feel that the whole team, reception to top doctors, are working together. They BELIEVE YOU when you have an odd symptom. They consider every little detail and tell you all of their thoughts and are so kind. If something isn't working or stops working for you, they'll figure it out. They don't make you feel bad about any choices you make. I love that they are REAL CERTIFIED doctors that use everything available to them, so it's not snake oil or cult-ish. Basically, make the investment and come here. Tell them the truth of what is going on to your body every step of the way and they'll make it right for you. read more

After searching for answers for 25 years of migrating pains throughout my body - I finally found Dr. Yee who was able to diagnose these crippling pains. I had heard about Dr. Yee through one of my clients who had amazing results at getting to the bottom of her cancer. Dr Yee did an extensive battery of testing and spent ample time listening to my medical history. Her brilliance is putting all these pieces together of this giant puzzle... To finally come up with a correct diagnosis, that all doctors before had failed see, or recognize. Dr. Yee got to the bottom of it and I am eternally grateful...she is a real blessing to the healthcare community. Not only is she a super nice professional, she is super thorough and leaves no stone unturned. I highly recommend Dr. Yee... Finally after 25 years I have answers. read more

My experience with the Blum Center, and Dr. McConnell in particular, is everything I could ask for in a doctor relationship. Starting with functional medicine, which I can only wish all doctors would be trained in, I feel it is truly a health partnership. Dr. McConnell invests the time and genuine interest to understand my health issues and concerns, and works with me to find an approach that is comfortable and sustainable for me. As a patient with a genetic predisposition to dementia, Dr. McConnell suggested a leading-edge preventative approach. Several years later, I was finally ready - mentally and holistically - to embark on the next phase of my health journey. I take comfort and hope in having such a knowledgeable and supportive health practitioner to 'walk' with me. read more

I recently had my first appt. with Elizabeth, the PA at the Blum Center. She was so knowledgeable and kind! I noticed how Elizabeth really listened to everything I said and her input was invaluable to me! Yes, it was truly enlightening! I hadn't found that with the Gastroenterologists I had been to. They were quick to write a prescription and send me out the door. Elizabeth prescribed in-depth testing for me to get to the "cause" of my GI problem. Today, I am already so relieved that I found someone who is interested in my health and wellbeing! It is like a weight has been lifted off from me! I am also on a healthy journey with what I eat and supplements that I need! I am looking forward to my next appointment with Elizabeth! read more

I've seen Dr. Blum for five years now, and her advice is always terrific. She's helped me tackle general gut dysfunction, endometriosis, and provided supportive care with Lyme. Her three week cleanse alone turned around a mean case of hives. She even gave smart advice about a harrowing vaccine issue that baffled my son's pediatrician. For me, Blum's integrative care has been more precise and helpful than what I've encountered with naturopaths, but you must commit to her plan to see results and accept it may take some fine-tuning. Her bedside manner reminds me of a tough but compassionate mom who has your best interests at heart; she's also flexible with treatments that suit your time and condition. I highly recommend her! read more

Dovetta B. I've been to many wellness centers. Although the doctors and staff do their job, the Blum Center is one that I would give an A+. The staff is polite and attentive to the needs of the prospective clients as well as the oldies but goodies clients. Not only is the atmosphere inviting, but the doctors, coaches etc. have a pleasant and caring persona. Clients must realize that they must take an active part in their healing, if success is to be achieved. We spend enormous amounts of money on things for entertainment - travel because it makes us happy! How much is it worth to you to improve you HEALTH, so that your life can continue to be enjoyable? We are on this earth on borrowed time.. Don't waste it! read more

The faculty at the Blum Center are extremely sweet & truly seem to care about your health & well-being. I live in MS so the majority of our visits are over the phone. Dr. McConnell is my doctor, but I will be switching over to Dr. Blum in a few months because Dr. McConnell is leaving. Dr. McConnell has been so sweet & continued to try her best to treat me & get me better. She is still trying her hardest even with her leaving soon. She responds to emails and talks with me whenever I am feeling worse or something new comes up between appointments. I would recommend the Blum Center to anyone and everyone. read more

I have been seeing Elizabeth at the Blum Center for several years and have noticed that several stubborn health conditions have gradually improved. I still have some issues that are recurring but Elizabeth always addresses them quickly. A larger benefit I have seen is that my whole perspective on life and ability to make plans for my future has gotten better. I just feel more grounded and seem to have more common sense. Many people don't really have a positive rapport with their primary care practitioner. I trust Elizabeth and that is really important to me. read more

The Blum Center for Health is a top-notch operation. The doctors are highly qualified in their specialties and take the time to listen to your issues and come up with a comprehensive plan to address them. I have been coming here for seven years and have been very pleased with my treatment. The Center has the best of both worlds, traditional medicine and alternative, functional. The two approaches together have been very successful to help me get better. They are especially good at helping patients with difficult cases. I highly recommend them! read more

Elizabeth is great - I have been seeing her for two years and every time I am feeling helpless about my health she finds a way to make me feel better and comes up with a creative solution and new idea that lifts my spirits. She is also the only health care provider that really listens. I was diagnosed with SIBO and it is extremely difficult to treat. Through her care , patience, focus and unbelievable knowledge we were able to finally heal my gut - I can't say enough good things about Elizabeth - she is a life saver - I highly recommend her read more

I am not sure where to start but if you are experiencing gastro issues, not enough can be said about the Blum Center. For thirty years I went undiagnosed. I was always Sick and always concerned about my stomach. After being referred to the Blum Center, not only did they figure out what was wrong with me, but treated it and enabled me to enjoy my days again. They were life changing for me. Please see them if you have issues. They will change your life as well where all other gastroenterologist fail. read more

I practically live at this place! Shrink, ENT, AND primary health coordinator and hand-holder, Dr. Susan Blum. She is amazing and has built an organization noted for its professionalism and unique knowledge. Basically, I've been to this rodeo many times and FINALLY found peace of mind and health of body here and ONLY here. I can't rave enough but suffice it to say that I maintain a grueling travel and exercise schedule at nearly age sixty thanks to The Blum Center. read more

Dr. McConnell has been sooo fabulous! I have been suffering with IBS and joint pain and have been referred to numerous "specialists" who just prescribe medication for me to try without a definitive diagnosis. After meeting with her and talking for several hours I finally felt that someone was hearing me. I have been following the program for 5 months and have never felt better in my life. My only regret was that I didn't discover her sooner. read more
