Edit to my below Review: Finally received the Dx code asked for my final visit, likely based on the…read morereview that I didn't get it when I previously asked for it. This office is a great option if you are not wanting to bill insurance. Practitioner knowledge and results from my assessment continue to be positive. While I continue to have decent results from the assessment and recommendation of Dr Valenzuela, it was the office experience related to billing that garnered this not so fab review. I was a cash patient recommended to her office by another practitioner. I needed the superbill with the Dx codes on it to submit to my insurance company for reimbursement as this office doesn't work directly with insurance. I have asked for this code on the receipt from my last visit three times now since mid December and received no reply. At one point, I was told by Dr Emily that if I book my appts, the DX code isn't on the superbill, but if she books it, it is. Why is their a "book online" option on their website if she wants to book the appts? Furthermore, I paid her over $400 and am only asking for a Dx code for the last visit. It takes less than 5 minutes to add this to the superbill! Her last reply to me is and I quote. "We are a cash base business, because what we do in our clinic is generally not covered by insurance. So sorry we couldn't be of more help. The best thing I can do in the future is recommend getting an HSA insurance plan. You put money into an account that you can use for services such as mine or your chiropractor and then your insurance premiums are lower. Good luck" The HSA is a great suggestion but not attainable for me at this time. I did end up getting partial reimbursement for the initial visit from my insurance, and I know others who have these services covered by their insurance, they just have to bill and need the Dx code! Not a big ask when you are charging $225 for the initial visit and $90 for follow ups! Sheesh! I have since found another practitioner who does what this office does and does bill insurance and is super easy to work with. As sad as it is for me to give this review, the lack of response from Dr Emily speaks for itself.

I have been seeing Dr. Valenzuela off and on for years for general maintenance and thyroid health…read more(I have Hashimoto's/hypothyroidism). However I had never really honed in on my thyroid health and fertility and wanted to prior to conceiving as I was anxious that it would be impossible to get pregnant due to my diagnosis, or would take longer than most. I also knew that if I was to become pregnant, my risk of miscarriage was much higher. Therefore both my husband and I started to see Emily regularly about 8 months prior to when we wanted to start trying. She took me through the CellCore supplement program where I detoxed from heavy metals, parasites, viruses (all big triggers for autoimmune disease) and more, and additionally worked on my thryoid and adrenals with acupuncture. Within a few months I started to feel huge changes, my skin cleared up, my hair stopped falling out, my brain fog had dissipated and I felt so good and really prepared to try for a baby. The first time we "tried" and weren't even really trying we got pregnant. I honestly was in shock and beyond excited. I am now in my 35th week of pregnancy and been seeing Dr. Valenzuela regularly to ensure baby "stuck" and that baby and I have both remained healthy throughout. I haven't had any tiredness or weird symptoms that most people complain of during pregnancy and I have to credit regular acupuncture treatments with her. Emily has been an endless source of information and made me feel so calm as a first time mom and I highly, highly recommend seeing her for autoimmune problems/thyroid health, infertility/fertility, and anxiety!

My finger nails have never looked so good. The hot flashes are almost gone. I am off all medications from the doctor. The arthritis meds they gave me, caused me to have liver problems, and my hands just got worse. I do believe that eating proper nutrition is the best medicine. Susan is extremely knowledgeable and guided me the whole way. I had a urinary tract infection and Susan gave me supplements that totally took the infection away. I highly recommend this program if you are willing to do the work for your own health. Also, this is not a weight loss program but I did loose 23 lb., and I love how I look. I will continue to eat this way the rest of my life.

More importantly, I have an amazing amount of energy and I can keep up with my young son. I wasn't hungry, didn't workout, and didn't even count calories or points. I even learned how to cook some amazingly simple and delicious dinners. As an ex-fitness professional I've seen a lot of gimmicks and fad diet plans. THIS IS NOT A GIMMICK! It's about real food and leaving the inflammatory foods like sugar, carbs, dairy, and gluten behind for 30 days and get back to eating organic meat, vegetables, fruit and healthy fats. I know it seems like a big challenge to change you eating habits for 30 days, but Alicia is a tremendous coach and motivator. She made it so easy to stay on track by giving you tips and tricks that set you up for success right from the beginning. She even uses a private Facebook group during your reset to help you get ideas and motivation from others who are on the same journey/struggle as you. I couldn't believe how much that group really helped. It's definitely changed the way I eat and I will be following the program for many years to come! Thanks so much Alicia!

He has introduced new foods and tastes to us that my wife and I had no idea existed, and he has transformed familiar foods into whole new taste and experience. And second best of all, he's pleasant to have in your kitchen! Meaning, he's not weird or awkward or anything. He's very knowledgeable about what he does and sometimes takes the time to teach us fun facts about certain things. Not only do we enjoy the time-savings he gives my wife and I for cooking healthy meals, but he teaches us things as well. And you know what... some people have a cleaning service to come clean their home for them to save time, and some people have a personal chef come to their home and cook for them to save time. If you do meal prep for the week, you know how it's easy to spend almost a whole Sunday cooking and packaging food for the week! We truly love this service! Don't know why we didn't think of this before! Thank you, Andrew!
