I specifically asked in writing about the cost of a new patient consultation before scheduling…read more During the scheduling phone call the fee discussed was $75. The confirmation email I received listed only the appointment time, address, and parking information -- it contained no mention of any consultation fee. On the day of the visit I was charged $750. When I questioned the amount, I was told that was the correct fee based on our prior conversation. I left the experience feeling the consultation fee had not been clearly or accurately disclosed in advance. The office itself also raised concerns. There was no secretary or front-desk staff, and the space is shared with a beauty salon, chiropractic office, and other services. All communication was handled directly by the doctor. The lack of transparent pricing has left me with no choice but to file a claim in small claims court to resolve the matter.

Our family has been seeing Dr. Paolo Tresoldi for four years, and we are sincerely grateful for his…read moredeep understanding of the human body as an interconnected system and for the meaningful help he consistently provides. We have repeatedly come to him with back pain, neck pain, lower back pain, headaches, and dizziness. In many cases, significant relief came even after a single session. Dr. Paolo is extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and professional, and his treatments have helped us far more than traditional approaches. We also had a very positive experience with Emily Lou. She is thoughtful, gentle, and highly skilled, creating a calm and comfortable environment during treatment, and her treatment is also very effective. I truly trust osteopathy much more after experiencing the results firsthand with these practitioners, and I highly recommend them.

5 stars for Dr. Fulmer. I have only been to him a few times, but those times he listened and was…read morepleasant. 3.5 stars for his office: Trying to get a hold of the receptionist is hard. Dr. Fulmer said he would call when some test results came in, but I never received a call. I called 7 or 8 times over the 6 business days after the results should have been in until I could get the results. One more thing: The walls in this office are so thin. I could easily hear every word in the next patient room. I guess it isn't a big deal, but it just seems like it should be more private.

I moved a lot as a kid and have probably had 20 doctors in the multiple cities I've resided, so I consider myself an authority. Dr. Fulmer is a great guy. He's extremely thorough and he TAKES TIME with you on every visit. He has an old school approach that makes you feel like he knows you and cares about you. I have to say that doctors who spend 2 mins with you and throw a prescrip at you are garbage, especially when guys like Dr. Fulmer exist. Highly recommended. You won't be sorry.

I had lumbar surgery 25 years ago, did not want another, and had seen specialist MDs (including prednisone pills and epidural cortisone injections), lots of physical therapy, and chiropractor during this past year, to no avail. I did get some improvement from an anti-inflammatory diet, but what has really helped me get my life back (in only 4 sessions) is the treatment from Stephania - especially the deep tissue massage. Wow; Truly worth it. Thank you, Stephania!

I highly recommend Dr. Tediana Torrens at Peninsula Integrative Medicine in Palo Alto. Dr. Torrens…read moreis patient, thoughtful, and truly listens. She offers practical suggestions that actually work, and she takes the time to look for the root cause rather than just treating symptoms. I had been dealing with an illness for 10 years that traditional Western medicine specialists had not been able to solve. Dr. Torrens was relentless in trying to figure it out and she did! I have not felt this good in years! What I appreciate most is that she understands there is a place for both functional medicine and traditional Western medicine. She usually recommends a functional, natural-first approach, but when she sees an issue that needs to be addressed more quickly, she is not afraid to integrate conventional medicine in the treatment plan. When she does so, she will include natural remedies to help with side effects and to support the body during treatment. In my experience, functional medicine can sometimes look at the body through a wider lens, including specialty testing and approaches that may reveal patterns not always captured by standard medical testing. Dr. Torrens brings all of that together with patience, intelligence, and persistence. There is room in everyone's medical care for both traditional Western medicine and functional medicine. When used together, they can be incredibly powerful. Dr. Torrens is an excellent example of that.
