“I truly believe Dr. Melissa Kuser is the reason we have a beautiful toddler with us today.
We had been having fertility issues for a year and a half. I had been to other
naturopaths, tried teas, supplements, and many other non-invasive methods. We were
about to start IVF when I started seeing Melissa. We met for an evaluation and blood
work, and I will never forget her telling my husband and I (with tears in my eyes) at my
follow up appointment, ‘Give me a few months, you can get pregnant.’; We decided we
would try her advice for 3 months, and then go the course of IVF. A mix of the right
supplements and a few Mayan abdominal massages later, and we were pregnant in a
month and a half! She helped me through the pregnancy and post-pregnancy and is
again supporting me during my second.
I love seeing her throughout the pregnancy and post for the Mayan massages… I
always feel more connected with myself and the baby after our visits. Melissa has great
calm energy – and is always welcoming and non-judgmental. I will continue to see her
for years to come – and recommend her to any of my friends struggling with fertility!”
I knew that Dr. Hopkins was the right fit for me after our very first session. I became so accustomed to being in and out of a doctor’s offices with a new prescription in my hand after a 10 minute visit. However, Dr. Hopkins took the time to thoroughly get to know me and my history. She went over my previous labs and records and was able to point out things that other doctors neglected to tell me. Instead of leaving with a quick fix prescription, she gives me natural remedies, tinctures, and follow up acupuncture appointments to deal with mental health and dietary issues. Furthermore, she continually collaborates with the rest of my treatment team, which provides me with a level of support that I never knew was possible at an outpatient level. Most importantly, she is kind, warm, gentle, understanding, and pretty much every positive adjective in the dictionary! I have never experienced such patience, wisdom, and non-judgmental compassion from anyone like I do when I see Dr. Hopkins.
34 year old femaleI saw Chelesa for chronic shoulder pain that limited my ability to do physical work and athletic activities. She used a unique blend of physical therapy, body-work, and intuitive modalities to guide me to a complete resolution of my shoulder issues. I have never had a more positive experience with a health care practitioner.
Matt H“Dr. Melissa Kuser has been a true medical partner, supporting me on my health journey for four years (and
counting)! I’ve always been seen by others as appearing healthy – but I knew my digestive system needed care
and balance, and the mainstream medical response to my PCOS was ‘I’ll just worry about this when you
want to get pregnant’;. Dr. Melissa has supported my whole body health with Mayan Abdominal Massage,
acupuncture, herbal remedies, and sparing Western medicine when needed. At almost 36 years old, I can now
say I'm in the best FULL health of my life. I have no doubt that our work in addressing my SIBO, and then in
supporting pelvic health and hormonal balance, readied me to become a mother. I got pregnant on a fast
timeline – quite unexpected by the mainstream medical folks – and have a wonderful one-year old kiddo.”
I met Dr. Hopkins at a time after I tried everything to improve my digestive health and truly felt hopeless. I had taken expensive tests, seen specialists, was vigilant about self-care yet I was not getting better. From the first time I met with her, I felt an instant trust and sense of relief because of her ability to listen and respect my journey up to that point. This alone created an immediate sense of ease, trust and renewed hope that I would be able to find full vitality again. Dr. Hopkins made the next steps feel clear, easy and manageable to get into action while also relaxing into the process. I am free and clear of SIBO and digestive distress after a long journey only to which I have Dr. Hopkins to thank. I have worked with countless holistic practitioners and her ability to combine proven techniques with a deep sense of empathy and respect for the individual healing journey makes her an extraordinary practitioner who I would recommend to anyone struggling with their health.

I have worked with some amazing doctors over the years, but Sara has been the best. She genuinely cares about her patients, and takes the time to understand their individual needs. Not only does she approach health holistically, but she can provide knowledge from both eastern and western perspectives. She makes herself accessible to her patients, and I have never left her office feeling unheard or misunderstood. I cannot recommend Sara more highly.
30 year old femaleChelesa is a gifted healer who is particularly skilled in helping women return to the wisdom of their bodies. I first visited Chelesa as a new mom struggling to regain a sense of balance in my body. She patiently and kindly listened to my story and helped me see how my body was pointing the way to a new and deeper understanding of myself. She is a brave, grounded, strong and gentle practitioner who has a compassionate heart and a wise intuition. I feel very grateful for her support as I have become a stronger and happier person.
Annie G“Dr. Sweet has been a tremendous pillar of support in my healing journey. A few years ago, I sleuthed naturopath biographies to find a good doctor who had interest in working with patients struggling with anxiety and digestive issues. Finding a good doctor who approached health by healing the whole body was my priority because I see the body as an interconnected unit. Dr. Sweet’s bio sounded like a good fit, so I mustered up the courage to make an appointment. The first session was fantastic. I didn’t find a good doctor, I found a GREAT doctor. Not only did Dr. Sweet have the experience and interest in working with patients in my situation, but she was genuinely excited to work with me. She made me feel at ease making this leap. Over the course of a few years, she has taught me how to work with my body by sharing nutrition plans and emotional healing advice and alleviating pain by acupuncture and massage. The wisdom of Chinese medicine is very real and Dr. Sweet is an expert as using it by uncovering the root of my issues. Dr. Sweet is like a detective, therapist, and doctor wrapped up into one being. She is a true healer with a big heart.”
Mindy H“Dr. Sweet and Dr. Chelesa Mayer are the two most incredible doctors I’ve ever had. The fact that they are now in one clinic is beyond amazing for their patients. Dr. Sweet was the first doctor to help me after five years of chronic pain. She is practical and grounded, a brilliant diagnostician, and just a wonderful person to have in your community. She brings to the table knowledge in so many areas of medicine and physical therapy, from acupuncture to Mayan abdominal massage and back again. It feels like she has always more in her tool belt no matter how perplexing your problem may be because she has studied so many different areas of medicine. After having my son, Dr. Sweet refered me to Dr. Mayer for postpartum hip pain. I have never been able to heal from something so quickly and wholly as I did with Dr. Mayer. I’ve also never been so immediately comfortable with someone and able to trust them completely as I was with Dr. Mayer. After seeing her for one appointment, I already felt fifty percent better in my hip and even more so in my soul. I could not stop talking about the experience because it was so positive and healing. I wish everyone in the world could see Dr. Mayer and Dr. Sweet.”
Laura D“Dr. Jessica Sweet has been my Naturopath for about a year. During the time she has been treating me I have had a positive response to her therapies which include but are not limited to acupuncture and Chinese herb therapy. I have had lasting relief from back pain, symptoms of menopause and fatigue. She is the first doctor I have seen in my 64 years who has listened to my symptoms and has treated me successfully without the use of pharmaceuticals. I recommend her highly. You will not be disappointed!”
