We understand what you’re going through,
because your story is ours too.
A practice founded on finding answers.
The web of healthcare is confusing. Medical concerns can be complex, symptoms present in a variety of ways, and insurance often dictates the treatment you receive. Not to mention the emotional and mental health implications that come with chronic pain, hormonal imbalances, or watching a loved one suffer and never find help.
If this sounds like your story, you’re not alone. In fact, I’ve experienced this myself.
Along with the birth of my first born child came a painful diagnosis – he wouldn’t survive beyond childhood. It was only after spending time with doctors, specialists, in labs, imaging, and countless tests and procedures that we learned he actually didn’t have what they said. Despite the relief we still felt so vulnerable. The experience really took a toll on our family and opened my eyes to just how broken and impersonal our medical system really is. The biggest problems I noticed were that no specialist seemed to be able to see or treat beyond their limited focus, and every effort just ended in more questions, lost time, money, energy, and dead ends. Not to mention, the practitioners never even learned my son’s name.
No one should have to experience this. I created this practice so you never have to.

They are kind, caring, professional and very helpful. For many years I have had an auto immune condition that I have been dealing with and have never had any improvement with it. Then I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis by two different rheumatologists about seven years ago. Both doctors recommended medication options that came with potential serious side effects. Which I was definitely uncomfortable with because I didn't want to expose myself to the possibility of further health complications, as I already had enough to deal with everyday. Unfortunately, neither doctor offered any alternative approaches or more natural treatments or any further, more in depth, testing to be sure this is what I was dealing with. So, I have just been living with these health issues and barely enjoying life much anymore.
Thankfully, I found Dr. Geyer, who thoroughly reviewed my tests and delivered unexpected news - I did not have rheumatoid arthritis! Dr. Geyer provided me with a treatment plan, and I am finally feeling much better, almost like myself again.
Before seeing Dr. Geyer, my daily life was a constant struggle. Simple tasks like grocery shopping, walking the dog, playing with my granddaughter, and even going to work were incredibly challenging due to having zero energy and constant, intense pain. Now, after following Dr. Geyer's treatment plan, my life is finally improving. I can go shopping, walk the dog, play with my granddaughter, clean, go out to eat, travel. I have more energy and desire to do things and less pain while doing them. The difference is noticeable and I can't wait to continue improving my health.
This is all possible because Dr. Geyer took the time to listen, understand, and offer alternative approaches beyond conventional medicine. Her commitment to providing health-centered and natural treatment options is truly a blessing.
