I received PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) therapy which stimulates your own body to heal (in my case, shoulder pain and arthritis). Nurse Practitioner, Yanet is expert at taking blood, finding the right place to reinject the plasma and giving instructions on home follow-up. I will not know the outcome of the PRP treatment just yet. I have some pain relief but expect more and more as my boy heals these next few weeks, but after visiting with two other clinics in the area, I am happy to have found this gem in the Near Northside-Heights area.

I have to share my concerns about this place. First of all, I am pregnant and I informed two women…read moreI spoke with over the phone on two different occasions while I was deciding dates on my first appointment and announced it again at the front desk when I showed up for my first appointment and ALSO, filled it out on my intake form...."I'm Pregnant" They called me back to the room and put me on a body scanning device-- I asked, "Is this was safe for pregnancy?" and she hurried me off of it after I had already been on it for a good 45 seconds. I asked the NP Ashley if that was harmful , to which she replied "I'm not sure, but better safe than sorry." Which was a little unsettling for me. I thought to myself "You don't know...?" Moving on to my next concern...I have spent well over $2,000.00 for testing and 2 appointments with KALE, I was prescribed supplements for my gut issue, picked them up and started taking them a month ago. After taking my supplements for a month, I received a phone call a few days ago saying they prescribed me the wrong supplement and that I need to order a different one instead. Well, of course this raised another red flag because I'm pregnant and there are MANY things I cannot take while pregnant. I asked if there were any negative side effects to taking this supplement while pregnant that could harm the baby - and the guy on the phone was not sure and would have to ask the doctor. So I looked it up online and It is NOT recommended for women while pregnant. Received a phone call back and he informed me it was ok.....Are you guys just trying to save your ass? The third issue that arises is that I have food sensitivity to beef and they told me to put beef tallow on my face for skin issues I'm encountering. Mind you, this was prescribed before the results came in...but does no one go over the files of their patient to make sure things are still copacetic after results are in? I'm just dumbfounded. I don't even know if it would affect me the same as ingesting it, but geez. Come on guys. I really wanted to like this place. I understand we are human and all make mistakes, but these are not small mistakes especially when a woman is carrying another life inside of her. At this point, this is just negligence on KALE FUNCTIONAL'S side.

I began working with Ashley Roitsch, NP at Kale Functional Medicine in August of last year and my…read moreexperience with her has been amazing. Ashley was attentive to my concerns about my health, ordered the right tests for us to get answers to the health problems I was experiencing, and was mindful of my budget with all of her recommendations on supplements and testing that were necessary for the insights needed. She has been very responsive and helpful with changing direction of some of these recommendations as we get more data. With Ashley's help, my cortisol levels and insulin resistance issues have decreased, and I have seen some big changes in how I feel and my overall self-esteem. I cannot recommend Kale Functional Medicine and Ashley Roistch enough.

I gel with Megan the best, so I usually ask for her, but I've been to each of them at least once, and they're all just so nurturing and nice and helpful.

I have issues having blood taken (needles really freak me out) and I'm in and out of there so fast I barely know it even happened. 100% recommend this office.

The downside of that is your annual exam is maybe 10 minutes and other visits, you see Dr. Hardwick-Smith for less than 5 minutes. The first time you visit Dr. Hardwick-Smith, she sits you down in her office and you talk. She's personable and is observant. She takes notes in your patient file so she can engage in conversation during the few minutes you have with her. If you don't get to see her, she's staffed her office with a few other doctors. It's like she has them admit headshots with their resume because the entire staff is gorgeous. Decor is nice and personal. There's portraits of children/families all over the office. Be prepared to pay for parking in the attached garage. UNLESS... you want to park over at Hermann Park and take a nice 1 mile walk to the office.

I'm shocked at the positive reviews Dr. Kumar has. He was not patient nor empathetic at all from…read morethe two visits I made to this clinic.I would only suggesting seeing Dr. Kumar if you like being cut off, mansplained to, and having your concerns for side effects ignored. If you have anxiety, he will talk to you as if you are your anxiety and not also a person. He cut me off multiple times when I asked him questions about treatment options to tell me he was cutting off my anxiety. It is laughable that "holistic" is in the name of this clinic. "Holistic" in the clinic title just refers to him selling supplements (his own words), not that he actually cares about you as a person or considers how drugs may affect your existing health issues - in fact, he explicitly told he he can't take into account my other health issues when prescribing. What kind of dangerous medical practice is that?

This guy is a joke. He is incredibly rude to my staff. We have many so many concessions and…read morediscounts for him, yet the amount of hand-holding is ridiculous. His call center is in India, they answer the phone and call the person a lead. Unprofessional! Then we started using our call center agent because they were fumbling everything so badly. He and his team are constantly rude to her as well. They take zero responsibility for their role in their success. Even their device manufacturer warned us that they are a problem. Stay far away. Dr Kumar, I have calls of you acting extremely unprofessional and rude to my staff and I happy to share them on LinkedIn. I don't recommend any vendor work with this man.

The peons at the front desk love to play doctor and will lie to you and openly refuse to pass on messages for the doctors.
