Your Body Knows Best

The marvels of your body cause you to take extra good care of it. To help you improve your health, pay attention to your total body, to be aware of what things you can do to improve health in the physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and mental areas. Naturopathic medicine is a fantastic approach to keeping healthy.

All Conditions Treated

Most individuals contact only a single physician for all of their medical needs, so it is quite challenging for them to comprehend all of their medical requirements. In the event that a change of treatment is required, it could possibly take more time to fully recover as well as result in a worse health condition. By regularly receiving medical check-ups at the first indication of illness we can tend to our health.

							Dr. Patel is awesome! Highly recommend him for any GI issues. Over the last few months he has helped me feel the best I have felt after getting diagnosed with SIBO. I didn’t realize how badly I felt after eating, I kind of thought it was normal. Now no bloating at all! I will say the process is not linear, definitely had some ups and downs trying different supplements, but it was worth every penny.

							I was struggling with constant bloating and digestive issues and found Dr. Maura N.D. through an internet search for naturopathic doctors. I did not want to go the conventional route and just be put on medication for a quick band aid. I knew I wanted to treat these issues more holistically. I am so thankful that I found her! Dr. Maura is extremely personable, professional and knowledgable. She was able to help me diagnose my digestive issues and put me on a plan with natural supplements and enzymes that have allowed me to finally feel better. I am thankful for her knowledge and support and will continue to work with her to keep myself feeling my best!

							I went to see Dr. Ronak Patel at Dr. Maura's practice with significant stomach discomfort and poor gut health. In my time with Dr. Patel, not only did he completely heal my stomach (more than any doctor was able to do previously), but every aspect of my health and wellbeing has drastically improved under his care. Beyond my stomach, I saw unprecedented, radical improvements across all aspects of my wellbeing, including my energy levels, attention, and mental and hormonal health. Dr. Patel puts genuine care and time into his patients. Unlike any doctor I've previously seen, Dr.Patel doesn't look for a quick "fix", but truly invests time in understanding the root cause of WHY you feel a certain way, and thus his care is preventative, not just reactive! In a word my experience has been life changing. I have recommended Dr. Maura practice to every friend, family member, and co worker.

							Dr Maura is an excellent naturopathic doctor. She is incredibly knowledgeable and cautious when it comes to the care of her patients. It took us so long to find someone who is as open minded about a more holistic approach to medicine as we are. One of the things we value most in anyone working in healthcare is the time they give to each patient. We never feel rushed out of her office which I find to be rare in NYC. I trust her completely with the health of our children and we would recommend her highly to anyone.

							I have been seeing Dr. Patel since the fall of 2023 and I can honestly say he is the best doctor I’ve ever had. Not only has he helped immensely with my health issues, but he also takes the time to explain what is going on with your body. He will go over your labs with you and explain in detail what they mean and the action plan he made for you to improve your health. His bedside manner is wonderful. I was hesitant to try holistic medicine but I am so glad I did. I feel so much better!! I’d recommend Dr. Patel to literally anyone (and have!).

							I have worked with Dr Patel for 9 months or so now and he has made a huge difference for me. While my GI case was relatively mild, the testing and supplementation helped to effectively fully remedy my GI issues which consisted of leaky gut and IBS type symptoms. Dr Patel is a fantastic naturopathic doctor - he listens, clearly cares, has different therapies to try, and never tries to push lots of different and unnecessary tests or supplements. Some of the tests are not covered by insurance but they are totally worth it - they got to the root of my issues whereas a GI doc would have said I would need to just “deal with IBS forever”. I could not recommend Dr Patel enough.

							Dr. Henninger is wonderful to work with. I felt I was being cared for by a highly skilled health care professional and also a healer. She is so dedicated to each patient and extremely thorough in her approach to healing. I did a 21 day cleanse under her care and she was thoughtful, supportive, and provided helpful insight and observations throughout the process. Her style is easy-going and non-judgmental.

							I had a great experience with Dr. Maura! I had problems with eczema for more than 6 months and I tried all kind of creams, moisturizers and steroids and nothing really worked. Then I made an appointment with Dr. Maura, who helped me find out what was triggering my eczema, and helped me find a more permanent solution. I saw first results after 2 weeks already. It's been 3-4 months now and my eczema is almost completely gone! Thank you Dr. Maura!
