She is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and so pleasant to talk to that I now look forward to going to the doctor! Her supportive and calm nature always puts me at ease and her persistence has brought me the confidence I have needed to conquer the challenges I have faced with my body. I am so thankful for her amazing care!
Dr. Mayer was referred to me by Dr. Sweet and has been such a huge help in my healing process. She has a surprisingly unique and different approach to the physical therapy I have had in the past which has created such a safe and loving space to heal. Her gentle, yet effective techniques have been a pleasant change from the aggressive and painful methods I was used to. Her empathetic nature and kind spirit provide an understanding to sensitive subjects that made me feel sincerely cared for from the first time I saw her. I would recommend her services to anyone!”
Jenny LChelesa 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 GAt peak fitness at age 58, I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis at L-3 and L-4 to go along with my bulging disc problems at L-5 and L-6. I could no longer ski, hike, garden or engage in many of my normal activities. Surgery was not an option. I worked with several highly reputable physical therapists for several years only to find an increase in my neuralgia, muscle cramps, foot numbness, back aches and sleep problems. Inactive, I gained at least 25 pounds. I became depressed. Enter Dr. Mayer. She immediately diagnosed that I had a long term posture problem that exacerbated my symptoms and thwarted more traditional therapies. We literarily started at the bottom, the lowest part of my back, and through a series of postures and movements my sway back began to straighten. With time, my symptoms receded; the vertigo, the pins and needles, the numbness, the back pain, and the depression. I treasure my relationship with Dr. Mayer for the way she inspires me keep up with my health practices. Learning together has brought us closer together. I can not recommend a better partner for creating and maintaining a life with good health!

“Dr. Melissa Kuser was recommended to me by a trusted friend. I find I look forward to my visits with Dr. Kuser.
She is incredibly smart, perceptive and kind. I appreciate how she spends time with me to find out the source
of what is wrong vs. putting a “band-aid” on the symptoms. Trust me, I have given her much to work on
including anti immune, joint, diet, gut, and accident issues. She communicates with me in person and by email
to ensure I am comfortable and knowledgeable about what is going on with my body. I believe under her care, I
have added years to my life by giving my body the care and nutrition it needs. I have and will continue to
recommended Dr. Kuser to anyone who will listen.”
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 femaleI 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 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.

“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 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!”
It’s difficult for me to put into words what an important role Dr. Hopkins has played in my life over the past two years. From my very first visit, I knew I had finally found the doctor I had spent years searching for. I came to Dr. Hopkins during a very difficult time in my life. I was physically struggling with chronic conditions, was battling overwhelming anxiety and depression, and felt hopeless. With kindness, compassion, and an unwavering belief in my ability to heal, Dr. Hopkins has helped me to take control of my health and make empowered decisions about my care. I finally feel like I am on the path to true healing and feel supported every step of the way.
