Where do I even begin...this is for people that are skeptical or curious about the Amen Clinic. Dr.Chakra has truly changed our lives. When we first read about Amen clinic, my husband and I had been searching for anything to help my 2 children. We had spent thousands on therapy, IOP therapy, auditory processing testing, ADHD testing...that we pulled out of, because nothing was helping. We kept throwing money at it, and nothing helped. We have been doing this for years. We were very careful about putting the kids on medicine, we had tried homeopathic doctors, acupuncture...my poor kids. We knew they could be living a better, healthier life...we felt so guilty. We found some great, good, and bad reviews of the Amen Clinic... and we were told by our Mayo Clinic doctors that they would not look at those scans, because-the studies were just not "big" enough for Mayo. We were told by friends it was snake oil...we were desperate to help our kids. Fast forward several months -my oldest is smiling, has A's in school, a group of friends... things I would torture myself with at night thinking they would never have, or be able to keep. I have my child back, the child I knew they were inside, we just had to find them. Dr.Chakra is smart, careful, thoughtful, thorough, patient, kind, and speaks slowly so we catch everything. He literally is the most patient person I have ever met. He has given us natural options, natural options with meds and he always makes sure we proceed with caution. We know exactly what to look for with the meds. He looked at their brains and has been able to target the meds. He also knew my child had an allergy that I didn't know they had- we tested, and sure enough! I do advise to do the genetic testing for the meds! I could go on and on... I even had my mother tested, they are in the middle of changing her meds, we have learned so much. Our experience has been life changing, I get choked up even writing this.... I have to also give a shout out to Dr.Chakra's assistant Kaitlin- she has put up with 2 desperate parents! She always answers us right away, finds a spot to squeeze us in if we need something, my list could go on and on about her! As we said when we started this journey - Can't hurt to try! We are beyond thrilled we did. Good luck and prayers PS- A response to the bad reviews-Anyone that says they try and push their vitamins etc... they give you options on everything and let you decide. We have never felt pushed about anything! We could have walked away with just the info in hand, and seen our original doctor with the results. Truly NOT the case.
