Our Reviews
Testimonials
I went to see Dr. Blake as a stressed, tense, broken patient and she has been dedicated to identifying the underlying causes of my illness
and stress. I’m happy to report I’m now on a path to healing!
Before Dr. Blake, I suffered for years with adrenal fatigue and
hormonal imbalance, issues that no previous doctor had taken the time
to uncover. I appreciate that she considers lifestyle factors and makes recommendations that bring wellness to my whole self, not just the surface symptoms. It is a pleasure to visit with Dr. Blake because she is empathetic, she listens with intent to learn, and creates a customized, effective healing regimen. I've come a long way since I met her and I am incredibly grateful for her knowledge and guidance. I highly recommend!
