Patient Testimonials
Karen Z.
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!
Emma G.
Very grateful for Dr.Patel! Truly would be lost without his help. Saw dozens of doctors for months who couldn’t help me. Within two weeks of working with him, after tests, I saw drastic improvement and many months later- still feeling great. Thank you so much!

I found Dr. Maura after hitting a dead end with specialists in traditional western medicine. It took a leap of faith to switch to this style of healing, but after starting her protocols my body started to gradually heal. I now feel empowered dealing with my health. Dr. Maura helped me understand how MY body works and reacts so as other health challenges arise I'm able to get back to health. She's patient and warm and never makes me feel rushed or crazy. I even sent my husband to her for his debilitating migraines. She discovered the root cause and he hasn't had a migraine day in 6 months. I recommend her to everyone I talk to who is struggling with a chronic condition or imbalance. Which is basically everyone I know.

Working with Dr. Maura has been a great experience! For many years I struggled with gut issues, chronic fatigue, and migraines. Within just a short time she was able to identify the underlying cause of my gut issues and laid out a protocol for me to follow. She took the time to listen and get to the root of my problems. I was able to heal from SIBO and leaky gut. My energy levels have increased dramatically and I don’t suffer migraines like I used to. Working with Dr. Maura has truly been a life changing experience. She is the person to go to if you need help on your healing journey.

Dr. Kellie has guided me through a 3.5 year health journey, and I couldn’t have asked from God/The Universe a better coach, personality, doctor, professional, and soul to be there with me every step of the way. She dove deeper to the root(s) of my issues more than anyone doctor I’ve worked with, and I stand here today in MUCH better health with more vitality and life than I’d have in 10 years. She is patient and warm as well as incredibly knowledgeable with a passion for continued growth and research to benefit doctor and patient alike. I will follow Dr. Kellie where ever she is as long as she will have me! I truly believe and know she helped me get my life back to keep up with and enjoy my two small children!

Dr. Maura truly helped me a lot during the transition of quiting birth control pills (post birth control syndrome) and thankfully I had no undesired side effects of quiting birth control pill such as painful periods, or acne which was the case for me when I tried to quit birth control pill by myself before. She really knows the importance of hormonal harmony! She carefully checked my blood test results each time I visited her and she provided just enough guidance and supplements/herbal medicine to support and keep my balance. I truly appreciate her help and recommend her specifically who has concerns about quiting the birth control pill/ or post birth control syndrome.

Dr. Patel is a breath of fresh air. I have been suffering with many chronic health concerns and after 12 years of issues, this is the best I've felt. He is patient, compassionate and knowledgeable. Although we still have more work to do, I would recommend Dr. Patel to any of my family/friends in a heartbeat! As a nurse, I learn a lot from him and love getting tidbits of education throughout our appointments. If you're thinking about it, just do it
Natalie G.
I can highly recommend Dr Patel. Before seeing him I had been sent on a wild goose chase for years traipsing round other gastro specialists, multiple intrusive tests & ultimately just told to put up with my symptoms. After just a couple of zoom calls & some home test kits Dr Patel had properly identified my issues & gone further to help me spot other hormonal imbalances. And I can now say with confidence that I am 100% better. And this was all done over zoom to the UK. Dr Patel considers the whole patient. All your symptoms & needs. He has a wonderful manner & clearly knows his stuff. I have & will continue to recommend him to everyone I meet.

I have struggled with acne for my entire life and tried dermatologist after dermatologist without much improvement. Dr. Maura's Naturopathic method has changed my life by helping me to evaluate the parts of my diet that upset my skin and worked to find a plan that I was able to incorporate into my busy schedule. She was very patient in answering my questions and creating a viable action plan during my appointment, coordinating supplement orders after the fact, and was easily accessible between appointments through her patient portal. After four months, my skin is better than I have ever seen it, and I can thank Dr. Maura for that!
Danielle B.
It has been a pleasure working with Dr Patel over the last year. He has helped me tremendously. I was initially wary of functional medicine, but willing to try it. I now have a greater handle on my health, which has been evidenced by my blood tests returning to normal limits for my initial concerns. Dr Patel clearly cares about his clients, he is a great listener, and offers clear explanations and timelines. He does not push unnecessary supplements, and is very open about wanting to keep the amount of supplements you are on low. He has a more integrative approach, and understands that both traditional medicine and functional medicine work synergistically. He is very aware of and concerned about the money his clients are spending, so he does not push unnecessary tests or supplements, as some predatory places will. I will continue working with Dr Patel and highly recommend him!
Sheridyn O.
Dr. Maura has such a stellar reputation and while I was really eager to see her, I opted to see her associate Dr. Galina, whom I had also heard good things about. I'm so glad I did. Dr. Galina is truly a gifted physician. She completely resolved my PCOS and digestive issues when no other doctor I had seen (and I've seen many) was able to even understand what was happening. She listened carefully and never rushed through visits. She ran the right tests that got to the root cause of my problems and came up with treatment protocols that were totally natural, easy to follow and most importantly effective. She's warm and so smart. I appreciated the attentive support she gave me between visits. I've already referred a number of family and friends to see her. She gets my highest recommendation.
Marcia I.
I could not be more grateful for the care I have received from Dr. Kellie. Through persistence on her part I have found answers and most importantly have felt supported along this long and winding process. I highly recommend Kellie because she is very knowledgeable, kind, communicates thoroughly and thoughtfully, and will persist in problem solving giving you as much of her time as you need.
Mauricio G.
My family loves Dr. Kelly Moore, she is an excellent professional, she is always available and answer our Emails, messages and works hard to provide the best you can have in terms of Medical diagnostics, and preventive treatment. We recommend Dr. Kelly Moore.
Malikee J.
Dr. Maura is great. I was fed up with the conventional mode of health care and wanted a doctor who really took the time to help me get to the underlying cause to some of the symptoms I was having. Dr. Maura sat and spoke with me for an hour, which was followed up with doing a comprehensive blood panel and acid test. She also gave several resources (books, articles and fellow colleagues recommendations) to further help me. After getting the results, we had another hour long conversation about all the different recommendations to heal (supplements and different therapies) I’ve been following the protocol and I’m feeling the best I’ve felt in years!
Mac G.
Dr. Maura Henninger is hands-down the best naturopathic doctor in the tristate area — and arguably one of the best doctors of any kind that you're going to find. I came to her with a number of health issues including digestive symptoms that no doctor (including Mayo Clinic) could figure out, as well as autoimmune diagnoses. After about six months of working with her, I am virtually symptom-free. Sort of a miracle. I don't usually write reviews, but Dr. Maura's professionalism, expertise and seemingly singular knowledge rate her a cut above the rest. Working with her costs more than going through insurance but my health problems used to consume me and they don't anymore. That is worth every single penny. It's truly invaluable having a doctor who understands my entire health picture. I'm a patient for life as are many of my friends and family. Highest recommendation.
Monika B.
Both, Dr. Maura and Dr. Ronak, are amazing holistic doctors. I was struggling with the unhealthy gut (abdominal pain, bloating, upset stomach, and such) on top of anxiety and frequent panic attacks. Dr. Maura and Dr. Ronak created protocols, customized just for me, and helped me to get better. I absolutely trust them and highly recommend them both.
Joe A.
Dr. Patel provides excellent information and data analysis pertaining to my health. He designs a customized game plan that is tailored to each individual’s needs. His approach is thorough, thoughtful, and highly personalized. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a doctor who genuinely cares about their well-being and offers top-notch, individualized care
Lorenza F.
I had been trying to understand why I felt "off" for the longest time and thankfully I met Dr. Patel. He has helped me identify the root cause of why I felt the way that I did. He took the time to explain everything and listened to my experience. He developed a plan to help me feel better and is always available for questions or additional support. It's been 3 months and I am finally feeling like my old self- Truly the best Doctor!!
Aditi V.
Before working with Dr. P, I genuinely believed my issues were things I’d just have to deal with for the rest of my life. I’ve always had fairly normal lab results, but still felt as though I was struggling day to day. This was the first time I felt I had been taken seriously. We have tackled so much in such a short amount of time and I’m excited to see continued progress. Can’t recommend Dr. P enough!
suzanna m.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Patel since late January this year and it’s been such a beautiful journey. I’ve struggled with so many GI issues, lack of energy, poor sleep, recurring acne and really bad PMS in the past few years before hopping on board with the naturopathic route. Meeting Dr. P has been the ultimate blessing. The first appt was so thorough and we went over everything from past medical history to lifestyle and had a conversation about things my last doctor didn’t ask me. After our initial appt he recommended tests so we can get more info on what’s going on in my body. The second appt was even more detailed- he explained every test and result we got back. He also formulated a plan for me to help tackle some of the issues I had. Many of my issues were related to leaky gut, and gut flora imbalance, as well as, cortisol and sex hormone imbalance. Initially it seemed really scary to have so many issues happening at once but Dr. P assured me we would do it in stages and get to the most important ones first and then work our way through the rest. It was easy to get into the regimen because he gave me hope about getting better in ways that other practitioners couldn’t. And with that support I was able to tackle most of my issues and see results. I can now eat foods I love and not feel bloated, and sick after. I don’t have PMS anymore and the quality of my sleep has improved tremendously. My quality of life has definitely gotten better and I can say I am a lot happier these days. I couldn’t have done it without Dr. P.

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.
Brian P.
I originally saw Dr Maura a few months ago for cystic acne. As soon we began talking I knew I was in the right place. Dr Maura took the time to listen to my concerns and asked several questions that other doctors had not. Dr Maura asked me to take a couple of simple at home tests to provide more clues to what was going on. We spoke a few weeks later and Dr Maura had developed a personalized treatment plan tailored to my specific needs. Under Dr Maura’s guidance I began a natural approach to clearing my skin. This included lifestyle adjustments, dietary recommendations, and a few supplements. Not only did my acne disappear within a month but my overall skin health dramatically improved. My confidence is back and my hair looks healthier as well. I’m forever grateful Dr Maura’s expertise, compassion, and dedication while helping me achieve my goals all in natural way. I absolutely recommend this incredible doctor to anyone looking for a long lasting solution to their skin concerns.
Sam W.
Dr. Patel was an angel sent from above. I was feeling extremely bloated, fatigued and tired of not getting answers. I was told that I 'just had IBS' by other doctors so when I met Dr. Patel, I was so happy. He took such a deep dive in to my past medical history and my current symptoms and figured out that I had Leaky Gut and SIBO. He gave me the supplements he thought my body needed not just randomly from a list of supplements. I am feeling like a new person since starting those supplements. I think the best part of this all is that I won't have to be on these forever. He is looking to actually heal my body so that I can go back to feeling great without restrictions.
Pamela K.
I found Dr. Maura by the grace of God. I’ve had IBS for 20 years & suddenly 2 years ago I lost 20 pounds and was down to 84 pounds. Since I’m over 65 I was very concerned. I had consulted with 2 other functional/ holistic doctors but I didn’t have the confidence in either of them. One night I spent hours searching Holistic doctors nyc and finally found Dr. Maura. All the reviews were positive and patients were pleased with the results. In the last few months I’ve gained back the 20 pounds & feel so much better. You will not go wrong seeing Dr. Maura, she is sensitive, kind, supportive, patient- I’ve asked her so MANY questions- knowledgeable and just a genuinely sincere, caring person and doctor. Dr. Maura is what you would hope all doctors should be. I am so thankful for her!
Emily L.
Dr. Patel is amazing! He is kind, caring, helpful, and goes above and beyond for his patients. He has literally changed my life with the recommendations and protocols he has given me. He has put me on a better path in life and I am eternally grateful for him and everything he has done to help me. I highly suggest seeing Dr. Patel!
TamTam C.
I have been working with Dr. Patel for about 6 months now. He helped me get my SIBO and digestive issues under control. I am very grateful for his time, patience, and kindness. Definitely recommend.
Alexa P.
Dr. Patel is amazing. I went to him for digestive problems about 6 months ago and he has truly changed my life. 100% recommend
Carlene S.
I have been working with Dr Patel since April and am so impressed with the way he makes you feel like you are number one. He is so kind and caring. He starts with tests to learn about everything that is going on inside you before starting treatment. Really hard to find Doctors like him today. Im telling everyone about him. Dr Patel you rock!!
Karina P.
Dr. Patel is fantastic, great practice.
artur s.
Dr. Maura is one of the best naturopaths I've ever met! Very nice and helpful. She immediately knew how to help me! Thanks to her and her method of treatment I feel wonderful! I would like to add that I was cured of SIBO and I am in the process of treating a leaky gut! I would recommend to everyone! Barbara!
Anna Z.
I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Maura! My backstory is that I have Hashimoto's hypothyroidism. For 3-4 years I felt an overall sluggishness, with symptoms including brain fog, social anxiety that I never had before, and lack of motivation (all of which felt very out of the norm for me) even though my blood work was showing "great" numbers for thyroid function. After 2 years of getting my thyroid dosage and blood test results in a great place, I still felt pretty meh and was experiencing this intense bloating (not kidding it looked like I was pregnant by end of each day) that nothing could get rid of. So I knew that it had to be something else, not just thyroid medication/dosage-related. I suspected, based on reading about its symptoms, that SIBO could be involved. Sure enough Dr. Maura tested me for it and we discovered methane-dominant SIBO, and we started what would be a 4-month supplement and dietary protocol. It is not an easy diet (you’ll probably need to remove gluten and dairy at minimum), and you will probably feel socially isolated at some points, but consider that it’s such a short time frame to turn your life and health around! Now about a month off of the diet and supplements and having transitioned every food I love back in (not avoiding gluten/dairy or anything anymore), I feel like I process everything very well - even whole milk dairy, which gave me awful symptoms before! Anyway, definitely see Dr. Maura if this sounded anything like what you’re going through - she was an immensely helpful guide through it all and a great listener! You can keep connected with her on an online portal as well, making her accessible and there for you even between appointments. It will not be through insurance so it’s not cheap, but I always think your health is the best investment 🙂 Thank you Dr. Maura for a wonderful experience! I’ve already recommended you to several of my friends and intend to do so to anyone else who is suffering through these frustrating symptoms.
J. A.
Dr. Maura is a pleasure to work with. She is thorough, thoughtful and attentive. She's not only helped me conquer a particularly debilitating case of SIBO and manage other chronic health issues, but also helped my family on their path to health. Highly recommend!
Rachel S.
From my first short phone consultation with Dr. Moore, I knew she was going to be a provider that would help me with my problems. Her intake form is far more detailed than that of any previous physician I have met with. She is great at listening about your life as a whole, and connecting things that I have previously been unable to connect. Dr. Moore is a wealth of knowledge and has been fast to communicate with me when I have questions. After having Dr. Kellie on my team, I don't think I can ever go back to a normal health care provider. I look forward to working with her in the future!
melissa p.
My only wish is that I found Dr.Maura earlier and that I reached out. I’ve suffered gut issues my entire life. She has been amazing and an incredible resource. With the tests she’s been able to administer we’ve been be able to get to the bottom of my issues. I have more energy, my bloating when I stay on track is gone and I feel more balanced. I look forward to continuing to work with Dr.Maura on my path to optimal health.
Helen D.
I've worked with Dr. Maura for more than a half a year now. I originally came to Dr. Maura for gut issues, and she has helped tremendously in addressing both GI and reproductive health issues. From our very first appt, I could tell that Dr. Maura is not only incredibly knowledgable and thorough, but a kind, thoughtful, and empathetic individual. She takes her time with you and truly listens to your symptoms. Dr. Maura recommends the right tests and teaches you to listen to your body, helping you address the root cause of your health issues. I now feel much better about my gut (she helped clear up a small intestinal bacterial overgrowth in less than 2 mo), and PCOS symptoms have been addressed as well. I feel so lucky to have found Dr. Maura! If you feel in any way that your health or well-being could be improved, I recommend you see Dr. Maura -- you will not be disappointed! Thank you, Dr. Maura for all that you've done and continue to do!
Justin C.
After several years of chronic gut issues while at the same time getting no satisfaction from traditional medicine (all telling me I am as healthy as a horse), I eventually connected with Dr. Maura earlier this year and I have been working with her since. She quickly identified and the confirmed through lab work that I had both dysbiosis and SIBO and has since guided me on a treatment plan (temporary diet restrictions and herbal supplements) that has improved these significantly. We also reviewed adrenal / stress symptoms I was experiencing, along with sleep issues - and she recommended herbal remedies that helped with both. I now have a n invaluable resource to turn to in the future should any reoccurrence happen and I definitely recommend Dr. Maura if you are dealing with chronic issues that your regular doctor(s) are not managing to diagnose - am sure she can help shine a light on what the root cause (and treatment) may be.
Tara C.
I started with Dr Patel about 10 months ago. He has really identified the reason for my symptoms with many tests. Finally got some answers! I am feeling back on track and most of my symptoms have improved dramatically. Highly recommend going to Dr Patel.
Sam M.
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.
Gabrielle Z.
Dr. Maura made a huge impact on my life. After going to many doctors over the years, none of them were able to figure out what was wrong with my gut and I was told it's "normal" which I knew it wasn't. After being referred by a friend to dr. Maura, it was the best decision I'd ever made. SO WORTH IT! She cares, and gets to the root of the problem. Not to mention, it's all the natural way! No perscription drugs to "coat" the problem. REAL life changes, natural supplements and formulas to fully heal the problem. Literally life changing. She also helped me with my hormones after coming off birth control after 14 years.... I truly feel like I wouldn't know what to do without her. Better than any "doctor" out there by a long shot!
Ray R.
Couldn't be happier with my treatment. After years of stomach issues Dr. Maura cured me in a few short months!
Lucas V.
I was introduced to Dr. Maura Henninger by a trusted doctor, and reached out to Dr. Henninger because I had increasingly difficult digestive issues that became disruptive to my lifestyle. After a few tests Dr. Henninger was able to determine the cause of my issues, and explained the treatment approach. After 6-9 months I feel as good as I have in recent memory, possibly the best I've felt my adult life. Dr. Henninger's approach is naturopathic, so it's not going to be as invasive as other approaches, but as a result it's not going to happen in a matter of days or weeks. If you take this approach you should be prepared to remain diligent and dedicated to the approach, but know that in the long run it will work out well. Personally I found Dr. Henninger easy to work with and an easy going personality. I've recommended her to multiple friends/colleagues.
Natalie D.
I was feeling helpless after seeing countless doctors after not feeling well. They all told me I had chronic inflammation, but offered no guidance or willing to do further testing. I was experiencing several symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, stomach issues and more. When I met with Dr. Patel, I felt comfortable and finally heard. He also explains everything very clearly and answers all questions. He suggested tests that allowed us to get to the root of the problem. Once we received my test results, Dr. Patel put together a treatment plan. I have been following the protocol for a little over 1 month and seeing improvement! I am looking forward to continue working with Dr. Patel. He also answers emails very quickly. Would definitely recommend!
Gabriella M.
I consulted Dr. Patel after experiencing extreme bloating, to the extent that my stomach was distended, making me look as if I were three months pregnant. Prior to seeing him, I had been diagnosed with SIBO by a functional medicine doctor, who prescribed supplements and a specific diet. Unfortunately, my condition worsened over time. Searching for alternatives, I discovered Dr. Patel on Google and decided to give his services a try. Dr. Patel approached my situation with exceptional thoroughness, conducting comprehensive tests to identify the root cause of my symptoms. He suggested checking for fibroids, which led to the discovery and subsequent surgical removal of two 10-inch fibroids. Moreover, he addressed the underlying hormonal imbalances contributing to my health issues. Four months into treatment, I've regained my energy, lost weight, and essentially got my life back. The difference in how I feel now compared to before is like night and day, and I am profoundly grateful for his care. I am continuing to work with Dr. Patel to further optimize my health. Having consulted numerous functional and alternative medicine practitioners in the past, I can affirm that Dr. Patel stands out as the real deal. He is not only knowledgeable but also invests time in educating his patients. His holistic approach encompasses nutrition, fitness, mental well-being, and supplementation. Dr. Patel is patient, compassionate, and personable, truly restoring my faith in the medical community. If you are struggling with unresolved health issues, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Patel. He may very well be the answer you've been searching for!
Rachel W.
I have had a great experience with Dr. Patel. He is warm and personable, which is really helpful when you are talking to a stranger about your poop! He ordered thorough testing, and even asked me if there were other tests that I wanted to do. That was HUGE, as I’ve had several doctors turn me down when I requested tests in the past. (That seriously blows my mind. If I want to be tested and am willing to pay for it, WHY NOT?!?!) The conventional doctors I saw about my digestive problems were absolutely useless. They wanted me to accept IBS-D as a condition with no cure, and could only offer me drugs to slow down my intestinal function and hopefully reduce my symptoms. However, after working with Dr. Patel for about 6 months, the severe IBS that I had been struggling with for 3 years finally started to heal! Additionally, I really appreciate that I was able to do my testing at home and my office visits online. I couldn’t find anyone like Dr. Patel near where I live, so I’m really thankful I could work with Dr. Maura’s clinic this way.
Danielle
I have had such a great experience with Dr. Maura already! She really listens, explains what is going on in your body, and also provides answers that I never received from any of my other doctors. I feel better after just 6 weeks and can’t wait to continue to make progress and heal. I couldn’t recommend her and Naturopathic medicine more.
Chika E.
I've had a great/positive experience working with Dr. Patel on gut health issues so far. The changes in my body are already noticeable after a couple of months of treatment, and I appreciate that Dr. Patel doesn't make me feel bad or like I'm falling behind if I slip up on my treatment plan every once in awhile. I look forward to continuing to make progress as his patient!
Jazmin S.
Dr. Maura has been so nice and helpful! I got a prompt reply, was able to visit with her soon, and she answers any questions I have. Treatment is holistic, which is what I was looking for, and I'm noticing improvements in my health. Very happy! 🙂
Lexi W.
I am so grateful to have been working with Dr. Patel over the past 8 months to treat my gut issues (SIBO & leaky gut). Prior to working with him, I always struggled to find a doctor who wanted to delve deep to find the root cause of my ongoing & long-term symptoms and help me heal my gut. 8 months ago, it seemed as if everything I was eating was not agreeing with me and my digestion system was out of whack pretty much everyday…now after 8 months, I am back to eating so many foods I wasn’t able to tolerate before and am feeling so much better and more like myself! I have been able to find so much symptom relief through a personalized treatment plan curated by Dr. Patel and he has been extremely transparent and informative throughout the process, guiding me each step of the way. His kindness and constant support & encouragement is not something you find in every doctor and is something I especially appreciate with him. He is amazing and I seriously cannot recommend him enough!!!!
Danielle S.
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.
Ellen W.
Dr. Kellie truly is a life transformer and exactly who I would recommend to anyone out there experiencing any type of health problem, along with anybody who just wants to be healthier and feel better overall. She has my eternal gratitude, and I cannot begin to thank her enough for all that she has done to help me!
Kristin H.
My experience as Dr. Kellie's patient has been overwhelmingly positive. Rather than a superficial and rushed consultation-- as I have often experienced in conventional health care settings-- Dr. Kellie took the time to listen, ask questions, and fully understand my situation. The result was that she was able to identify the root cause of my issues and recommend a treatment plan that not only improved the concern that brought me there in the first place but my overall health.
Anna T.
I wish I had found her years ago! I’ve only been working with her for about 6 months, and I’ve seen so much improvement in my symptoms already! I’ve read a ton of books about functional medicine and thought I could “fix” myself on my own—but I didn’t realize how I would just be wasting time and resources. Also, all the heartache when I tried something and it didn’t work, and all the confusion about what to try next. In hindsight, I would’ve been better off working with a professional sooner. Dr. Maura discovered something in my test results that wasn’t even on my radar; so I know that would’ve been an additional delay in my healing, had I not reached out to her. She is the real deal—she’s very knowledgeable, and kind—also she doesn’t judge, she doesn’t overwhelm, and the process for obtaining care is very easy—all via zoom and mail. Her services are not covered by insurance, BUT our health is literally priceless. If we don’t have that, we cannot live life. In fact, I also will be “taking” my 11 year old daughter who suffers from stomach issues to Dr. Maura. And I’ve recommended her to so many people. I love reading google reviews and so I hope this helps you make your decision about Dr. Maura, in the same way that others’ reviews helped me to make my excellent decision. Best wishes to you for good health!
Kira G.
Dr. Patel is incredible - he is a fantastic listener and is highly personable and empathetic, so building rapport with him is effortless, even via Zoom. He always thoroughly explains the data behind any lab tests in weekend language so it is easy to understand and you're aware of how he makes decisions. Most importantly, seeing the results of our work together has been immensely rewarding and I physically feel so much better. To be entirely honest, I prefer him to my actual PCP because he has such a great bedside manner. I cannot recommend him or the Dr. Maura Practice highly enough!
wiame d.
went to Dr Maura with off the charts cortisol levels (adrenal fatigue) and she helped me normalize them. great listener and gives you all the time you need
Rachma M.
I am grateful to be able to work on my issue with Doctor Maura during my transition from Indonesia to the states, with variety of hormonal issues that took a toll on me since early this year, at to the point of now, I am in a much better place with a continuation plan to keep maintaining healthy balance life. First time I've had consultation with her, I felt more hopeful about my health issue and I thought it was a rare quality that resonated from her. She has helped me to navigate my desire to maintain my physical and mental health with more natural way through nutrition, supplements and physical activities that more suited with me. I am so thankful for her support and I do recommended her to anyone who has a similar issue as I do.
Julie H.
I had a great experience with Dr. Patel. I came to him a few months after having Covid, with GI issues, anxiety and hormonal problems. He recommended appropriate testing, which revealed several underlying issues. Dr. Patel explained in depth the results of the testing, recommended several supplements which corrected the gut issues at the root of everything. I'm happy to report that I am completely back to my normal self!

Working with Dr.Patel has been amazing. I struggled to find a doctor who didn’t see me as a number rather than a human until I found him. Right from the start of my journey I could tell that he genuinely cared about my progress, had compassion and empathy towards the many issues I came to him with and has been very invested ever since I joined as a client. I feel very fortunate to have him as my doctor, thank you Dr.P!

In an extremely difficult year for my health, I am immensely grateful to Dr. Patel for his outstanding care. I began seeing Dr. Patel in June after being diagnosed with several chronic digestive issues (gastritis, duodenitis, esophagitis, GERD) and learning about naturopathic medicine online. When it came to my first session, Dr. Patel was very attentive in listening to my concerns. I shared the symptoms I was dealing with such as intense nausea, abdominal pain, weight loss, fatigue, and headaches. He took the time to address not only my overall GI issues but also other aspects of my health and lifestyle that could be improved. Dr. Patel also went in depth in explaining the potential root causes of my chronic conditions and providing several approaches on how to best optimize my healing. As a result, he created an individualized, holistic treatment plan specific to me which consisted of supplements, unique testing, lifestyle changes, stress management, anti-inflammatory remedies, and maintaining my strict elimination diet. Because of Dr. Patel’s kind and understanding nature, he expressed sincerity for my overall physical and mental wellbeing and made me feel comfortable, respected, and valued as a patient. With each follow-up appointment, I was making greater improvements than the last. Dr. Patel continued to be engaged and dedicated to my recovery and made adjustments to my treatment plan as needed. With his extensive knowledge, he guided me in my treatment process through teamwork and empathetic communication. In addition, Dr. Patel’s constant support and encouragement was something I really appreciated as he made it a point to acknowledge my perseverance and accomplishments during every meeting. Six months into Dr. Patel’s treatment plan and I have made significant progress in all areas of my health and wellbeing. I have been able to slowly reincorporate and eat the different kinds of foods I could enjoy before while also adopting a cleaner, more well-rounded diet that I plan to follow long term. The healthier lifestyle changes I have put into practice has helped me feel more balanced and greatly repaired my relationship with my body. With 2021 coming to a close, I am finally experiencing positive health days and feeling happy with the state of my physical and mental wellbeing. My journey to healing has been transformative, teaching me that your health is the biggest, if not, most important investment you could make. Taking responsibility of your health involves hard work and patience, but the outcome of overcoming your health challenges is worth the efforts. If you are dealing with similar and/or any other type of chronic health issues, I highly recommend Dr. Patel and his care approach because everyone deserves to feel good and achieve good health. And, after experiencing many incredibly tough days, I can now enjoy the holidays and transition into the new year on an uplifting and hopeful note. Thank you Dr. Patel for your ongoing commitment to my healing and wellness!

I found Dr. Maura online and I am SO glad I did! Unlike conventional health where medicines are often used as a band-aid, Dr. Maura helped get to the underlying issue that was causing my eczema flare-ups. She is very deliberate, thoughtful and thorough during her appointments. I never felt rushed (unlike traditional doctors appointments) and she always answered all of my questions! On top of that, she was very responsive over email when I had questions about my supplements, etc. Couldn't recommend enough!!!
Lauren L.
Dr. Patel has been such a pleasure! I've been dealing with bad digestive issues/SIBO for years now and Dr. Patel is the first doctor to really listen to my symptoms and help work through different solutions with me.
Alex S.
When I first started seeing Dr. Patel I was very much at my rock bottom in terms of my health. I was dealing with the worst autoimmune flare up I had ever experienced and was struggling with terrible pain and other systemic issues. From the very first appointment with Dr. Patel, I was immediately impressed with his approach to treating autoimmune conditions as no other doctor had wanted to get to the root cause of my issues. He is very knowledgeable, extremely thorough and very caring. Within weeks of starting his treatment plan I started to see major improvements in my symptoms. Over the last 6 months we have continued to work on healing my gut, lowering the inflammation in my body and getting my flare up under control. My health journey is far from over but Dr. Patel has helped me do a complete 180. My quality of life has improved tremendously and I am no longer in daily pain. If you are struggling with an autoimmune disease or any unresolved health issues I highly recommend booking an appointment with Dr. Patel immediately. My only regret is that I didn't start working with him sooner!
Alexandria H.
Dr. Maura is truly one of a kind! She has cleared my eczema within weeks and makes it her mission to get to the root cause of everyone’s conditions. She is understanding, doesn’t judge and she’s so easy to work with. She will be a lifelong dr of mine. Highly recommend!!
Jennifer H.
I've had the best experience with Dr. Patel. He is patient and extremely informative. He explains things very well so that anyone could understand. He has helped me so much! Highly recommend.
Katie M.
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!).
Noah S.
Dr. Ronak Patel is extremely knowledgeable on all things GI and gut related issues. I came to Ronak after years of dealing with IBS related symptoms and discomfort after eating certain foods. Ronak helped get to the root cause of my digestive problems which turned out to be Leaky Gut and SIBO. He uses very personalized tests to figure out exactly what’s going on and and has definitely put me on the right path to a healthier gut. My journey is not over but my gut health has improved significantly under the guidance of Dr. Patel.
Katie A.
It's so worth it to finally have a doctor who LISTENS! I started working with Dr. Maura about 8 months ago. Prior to that, I was dealing with perioral dermatitis (PD) that I had for over two years, but I had trouble finding any sort of long-term solution. I saw multiple dermatologists for my PD, but couldn't seem to find any fix (especially one that wouldn't just obliterate my system with antibiotics). I finally reached out to Dr. Maura to get help. I was cautious because I knew that it wouldn't be covered under my insurance...but it was so worth it to finally have a doctor just listen to me. Dr. Maura listened to everything that I was dealing with, from dermatologic to digestive issues, and diagnosed me with SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth). From there, she was able to prescribe a treatment plan, including diet, vitamins, prescriptions & lifestyle changes that actually had an effect. To anyone else who is at the end of their rope and feels like other doctors just don't really care...I would recommend seeing Dr. Maura!
Roman A.
I came to Dr Maura with a gut health issue. I found her online so was uneasy at first since I typically find health/medical providers through referrals but her competence and demeanor quickly put me at ease. She expertly identified potential issues and ordered a series of tests that I was able to complete from home to hone in on the cause of my discomfort. After the results, she put me on a supplements and restrictive diet plan for several meals that improved the issue. In a follow up appointment after seeing the improvement we did an additional round of supplements that took me to a close to or cured state. I'm very pleased with the experience. Shelli in her office also gets 5 stars for all of her support in scheduling and coordinating tests. Thanks Dr Maura!

Let me add to the chorus of praise of Dr. Maura. After 3 years of sudden, chronic and intensely painful constipation that ended up giving me a fissure, that getting infected and ultimately needing surgery, Dr. Maura completely turned my GI track around. I'd seen a few GI specialists before her and they were only interested in medicating the symptoms. I even asked twice "shouldn't we be trying to figure out why a healthy person who's completely regular all of sudden stops pooping?" and the answer was "let's just get things moving with the laxatives and then we'll figure all that out". Dr. Maura on the first visit implemented some really informative tests that frankly I can't believe GI doctors don't do on the first visit. Within the first week on a temporary diet she gave me, I was back to being completely regular. IN ONE WEEK! After three years of constipation! We'll have a more specific plan of attack once the results of my tests are back, but I'm already impressed. No need for laxatives or probiotics in weeks. I will absolutely be making an appointment with Dr. Maura a must for my annual healthcare.
Gabriella L.
I couldn’t thank Dr.Maura’s practice enough! I’ve been working with Dr.Patel over the past year and looking back at how far I’ve come has felt like a miracle. Dr.Patel listens to your symptoms and he’s just as curious as you are to get to the root cause of what’s going on. I had various issues that I didn’t realize were connected (hormonal, fatigue, gut issues), but Dr.Patel listened to each concern and connected the dots. He recommended a range of tests so we were able to understand what was going on and tackle each one by one. I really liked his strategy of treating the biggest issue first and working through others over the months so the process wasn’t overwhelming. After years of struggling with chronic health issues year after year, and being told my test results were “normal”, my voice felt heard here. My body feels like it’s functioning more optimal than ever before and I’ve learned so much throughout the process. If you’re struggling to get answers as to what’s going on holistically and feel heard by your symptoms, I highly recommend Dr.P!!!
Brooke L.
Dr Lieb has been such a game changer in my health journey. After going to multiple doctors and receiving no answers for my health issues, Dr. Lieb has carefully walked me through my lab work and given me a new protocol that has changed my health dramatically for the better. She made me feel validated and cared for each visit. If you’re looking to feel your best and get answers to health questions, you should look no further than Dr. Lieb.
Ember B.
I can’t recommend Dr.Patel enough!! He is kind, caring, and extremely knowledgeable. He has helped me treat and manage my GI issues better than any other doctor I have worked with. He really listened to my symptoms and did some at home testing to find the root causes of my problems and treated them from there. He is very understanding of my abnormal lifestyle/schedule as a college student and has created a personalized treatment plan to work with my schedule. I have felt better than I have in a long time working with Dr. Patel and am so grateful for all of the work that he has done!
Adria S.
After dealing with unexplained infertility for around 3 years I came across Dr. Maura. She was able to come up with a plan specific to my needs and we finally got pregnant! We are now expecting a baby boy in a few weeks and couldn't have done it without Dr. Maura.
Kathy H.
Dr. Moore is insightful, innovative, wise, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. I am so grateful to be in her care!
Adolfo V.
Let's start with the obvious - Dr. Maura is a bonafide expert in the field of naturopatic medicine, and runs a highly successful practice in the heart of New York City. What is not immediately apparent is her customized approach to each patient, the compassionate nature of her work, and the thoughtful process she applies to a field she clearly loves.
Ingie E.
Dr Maura has turned my life around! I started seeing her a couple years ago when my skin was basically screaming for help, and nothing else was working. Our first session was very thorough and we had a plan to diagnose and figure out the root cause right off the bat. With home test kits it was all super easy, even at the peak of COVID. It took a lot of work and patience but within 4-6 months I was seeing dramatic changes in my skin - and almost two years later I’m still doing pretty well! What I love about her is her realistic approach. She also thoroughly explains her thought process and suggested solutions for everything. I’m so glad I crossed paths with her and am grateful for her support and expertise. I’d recommend Dr Maura to anyone who is struggling with hormonal imbalance (esp. acne) or gut-related issues.
Joseph H.
I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr Patel. He is remarkably communicative, transparent, and thorough. I had dealt with severe dysbiosis, and a variety of related fatigue and gastro issues. Previously, I had seen two GI's, and two highly regarded functional doctors in NY. None were able to resolve my issues. I was exhausted and basically at the point of giving up. I found Dr Patel doing some google research. He set reasonable healing expectations and exceeded each / every one. He is timely with appointments, and he is incredibly smart. He takes time to listen and discuss, and is thoughtful in developing a plan of action. Truly feel like I have regained my happiness and my health, thanks to Dr Patel.
Ilana B.
I struggled with cystic acne for 3 years, spending endless hours at the dermatologist trying everything from chemical peels to 3-month doses of antibiotics. When nothing helped, I decided to take a chance on Dr. Maura. After 3 months of supplementation and dietary changes, my skin was back to beautiful. The changes weren’t easy but they we’re effective. If you’re serious about living a (truly) healthy life, Dr. Maura is the best resource out there.
Kelly O.
Dr. Kellie is an exceptional doctor. She has the rare ability to make you feel like you are her only patient. She has helped me tremendously and went above and beyond standard care to make sure I was well taken care of and well-informed. Dr. Kellie HEARS you and meets you where you are with warmth, wisdom and knowledge. She walks her talk and is a doctor with heart. I highly recommend working with her.
Danielle B.
I am so grateful for my experience with Dr. Patel, who helped me resolve & support a slew of issues- under-active thyroid, fatigues, chronic skin issues, SIBO & leaky gut. He is a great listener and truly cares about his patients! And was/is also encouraging of the decisions I want to make about my own body re: treatment options.
Mica F.
Dr Maura has been extremely helpful for me. I've been working with her for about a year on chronic gut/digestion issues, and I've improved so much in that time. I appreciate that she did not push a long-term restrictive diet, as many other practitioners have done for me without attempting to treat the base issue. I was on a low-FODMAP diet as part of my treatment, but now I'm back to eating almost everything other than a few trigger foods. I would definitely recommend her if you are dealing with chronic health issues that other practitioners have not taken the time to address with depth and care.
Kimberly J.
I've been a patient of Dr. Maura's office since 2021, and I've been seeing Dr. Ronak Patel since 2023. It's been wonderful working with Dr. Patel - he's patient, intuitive (I always feel listened to) and he truly feels like my "health partner" when it comes to matters that my traditional doctors won't get down to the root of. Over the past few years, I've developed a system where I do all of my annual M.D. doctor's visits, and then I complement them with N.D. visits with Dr. Maura's team. Honestly, without my N.D. visits, I don't think I would have healed as fully from medical procedures. For instance, in 2023 I had major issues with my appendix and gastrointestinal tract, but I credit Dr. Patel's naturopathic protocol with actually healing up the drama that happened after my hospital visit (severe gut inflammation and a bout with C.Diff!). I've also had issues with my adrenals and some hormone imbalance, so Dr. McElligott had me do a DUTCH test in 2021 which completely illuminated how stress was impacting my body. This year, Dr. Patel had me do a blood test and adrenal test where we were able to see my body's progress since 2021, and he developed a protocol for me to get my hormones and adrenals in better shape, and to support my fertility journey as a woman in my 40s. I can't recommend this practice and Dr. Patel enough.
Kyle M.
I have been seeing Dr. Maura for digestive issues for the past several months and am located out of state, outside of the NYC region. If you are suffering with IBS/SIBO I would highly recommend seeing Dr. Maura. I had been suffering with IBS/SIBO for approximately 18 months before seeing Dr. Maura. I had gone through all the standard protocol for digestive issues through my PCP and then I had seen several gastroenterologists across 3 major hospital networks. I had all the digestive tests you could imagine and spent thousands of dollars even with healthcare coverage (maxing out my out of pocket max). After 2 gastroenterologists at an Ivy League hospital network told me “I just have IBS and have to live with the symptoms” I was not willing to accept this and felt I exhausted my options in the traditional medicine world. I was skeptical of naturopathic/holistic medicine because of hearsay and that the services were not covered by my insurance company. I can tell you that the money I have spent with Dr. Maura has been well worth my physical and mental well being. The testing is expensive but I can tell it has helped Dr. Maura create a treatment plan. She ordered very targeted tests through one of the labs she works with and pinpointed the issues with my gut flora. I have been on a treatment program of natural supplements for over 60 days with her and have had amazing results that I was not able to achieve through the traditional healthcare system for IBS/SIBO. Do not be discouraged as chronic gut issues seem to be extremely difficult to diagnose and treat properly. I highly recommend Dr. Maura if, like myself, you have not received the answers you are looking for through the traditional medicine system.
Becky J.
I had a great experience with Dr. Maura (I moved to Europe a 7 months ago.) I went to her wanting support with fertility. With confident assessment of blood work and hormone tests, I followed a supplement and nutrition regime. A few months later, I conceived naturally at the age of 44. I'm now 38 weeks pregnant, healthy and happy. I highly recommend her care and expertise with fertility and all health issues.
Marta P.
I have been seeing Dr. Patel following the removal of half my thyroid - we have addressed that and few other things (gut, hormones etc). He is thorough, and personable and easy to understand - I have recommended him to a number of people and everyone has given me the same feedback. So thankful I found him!
Yennifer G.
Dr. Maura is by far the most caring doctor I've ever met, I was struggling with some health issues and after seeing many doctors without finding the root of my problem, I decided to go the natural way and it has transformed me in so many ways. I am so glad I crossed paths with Dr. Maura and that she was able to find whatever was going on in my body and treat me accordingly with all the care, respect and passion she has for her profession. Highly recommended.
yuvalka N.
Super profecional.muy linda la atencion. Estamos super satisfechos con la paciensiencia y la dedication del doctor .
Carmen S.
I can not recommend Dr. Patel enough. I originally reached out regarding certain gut issues and I truly felt relief after my first visit with just some guidelines he gave me before any tests were even done! After we did several tests and I got my results, the way Dr Patel explained everything in great detail was simply priceless. The journey is not over but there is nobody else I’d rather be on this journey with! I’ve learned so much and felt so much improvement in my health/body/mind. I tell everyone about my experience here. I’d recommend coming here with any health issues that conventional medicine hasn’t been able to solve.
Nicole J.
My health was in a downward spiral for more than 2 years and I was desperate for help when I set up my appointment with Dr. Patel at Dr. Maura's office. I tried every treatment recommended to me by my primary care doctor before seeing him - upper endoscopy, PPI’s, abdominal scans with no answers. I had so many rounds of blood work done with little to no explanation. I was at the point where I was hardly eating when I had decided to try naturopathic medicine. Dr. Patel was the first doctor to help me resolve any of my gut/thyroid issues and helped to get me on a plan quickly to restore my body to a normal state with the natural help of diet and supplements. He was the first person who made me feel like there was hope. Our first virtual appointment was an hour long and we went over everything I was experiencing and how we could resolve it. I shared with him recent blood work and he gave me very thorough explanations of my labs. He recommended stool testing at our 2nd appointment and we covered all of those results in detail as well. Found out that I had H. Pylori, Sibo, and a few other issues, so we quickly reacted and resolved within a few months. It’s been a little more than a year now and I am happy to say I’ve made a lot of progress. I would recommend Dr. Patel to anyone who is struggling with gut/thyroid issues. He will help you understand the whole picture and will carefully recommend ways to resolve whatever you are experiencing health wise. All of my appointments were extremely positive and I left each one very optimistic. Such a different experience from any of my other Dr. appointments in the past.
Lauren R.
- [ ] I started with Dr. Patel a few months ago and already started to see results! I have post-infectious IBS which causes digestive issues including indigestion and other unpleasant symptoms. Dr. Patel’s recommendations/supplements helped my indigestion improve within a month. I have never had this much success with other protocols for healing my IBS before (I have tried many). He was very thorough in testing my entire digestive system (and other related systems). I still have a ways to go before my digestion is normal, but based on how determined and skillful Dr. Patel is, I can tell that I will finally be able to resolve my IBS that I have been dealing with for the past 8 years.
Bree D.
Working with Dr. Kellie changed the course of my life. I've never been under the care of someone so skilled at listening, inquiring, and problem-solving with such insight and depth of understanding. Dr. Kellie gives me hope that healthcare can include a person's social and emotional wellbeing in addition to their physical health.
Erica M.
I worked with Dr. Patel for the past 8 months to help with gut issues, mood, low energy. The practice was amazing because I came in with some what 'vague' symptoms which a traditional doctors have never taken seriously or helped with. Also doctors have told me before there's nothing to be done about sub-optimal health in some areas, or just to wait and see what happens which is frustrating. The holistic approach was extremely helpful because I was able to understand how my symptoms were connected and how they can be addressed holisticly by getting to root causes. Dr. Patel takes the time to walk you through everything and make a personalized plan for your health, he is very kind and a good listener which is a relief after seeing doctors who don't seem to really care about your symptoms. Always time to ask questions in the zoom calls. I saw results over time and while it takes patience to follow the treatments and the testing at times it is highly worth it in the long term. Highly recommend.
Cameron C.
I've worked with Dr. Patel for the last 5 months to address issues with my gut and GI track (primarily h. pylori) that have plagued me for more than a year. Before seeing him, I'd seen two gastroenterologists, a round of antibiotics and tried many internet fixes. Working with Dr. Patel was what finally gave me lasting relief. He is a great listener, thorough explained my issues, and set me on a comprehensive path for recovery. I still have work to do, but have the knowledge, tools, and a much better baseline now. Thank you!

Dr. Kellie helped me immensely when I was struggling through my menopause journey. She listened and acknowledged everything I was feeling, ran several labs, and we worked together to come up with a successful solution. I am grateful to her for all the time she took to help me.
Katie F.
Dr. Maura is amazing. She's warm, attentive, and truly treats the whole body. Since working with her I've resolved lifelong stomach issues, improved my energy, identified food allergies and vitamin deficiencies I never knew I had. I've truly never felt better. Working with Doctor Maura has been truly transformative for everything from my mood, to my skin to my overall well-being. I would highly recommend Dr. Maura to EVERYONE!!
Katie L.
I have been living with multiple chronic illnesses since childhood. When I began to really take my health into my own hands in the last four to five years, I found that a combination of Western medicine and Eastern holistic practices significantly helped my symptoms and quality of life. I feel so grateful that I found Dr. Maura. Her practice has been pivotal in providing support to my body, so my body can support itself.
Stephanie F.
Words cannot express the gratitude and respect we have for Dr. Maura's work. My teenage daughter was diagnosed with SIBO and IBS 2.5 years ago. My daughter spent up to 5 hours a day in the bathroom and was in constant discomfort. We went to several GI and Endocrinologists. After years of testing and medications that did not work we were told nothing more can be done. Dr Maura immediately understood my daughter's condition and provided a path to recovery. Within months we started to see results. My daughter is a year into working with Dr Maura and is almost back to her pre SIBO/IBS days. We highly recommend Dr Maura!
Lana L.
I started working with Dr. Patel due to my GI issues that I had been trying to solve on my own, however nothing worked. Since working with Dr.Patel for almost a year now, he was able to pinpoint my GI issues, discovering that I had SIBO, which we were able to effectively treat with supplements. He helped me work on numerous areas, from GI to hormone health and immunity, taking the time to go in depth and explain everything from my lab results. He is extremely knowledgable, patient, a good listener, and is overall a delight to work with, even taking the time to answer and explain any additional questions I may have. I would recommend him to anyone who is struggling with difficult health issues. I'm a completely different person health-wise thanks to him, its life-changing! Thank you Dr.Patel!
Baumann C.
Dr. Patel's guiding through a better immune system and guts repair was very thoroughly. I followed his advice and felt an improvement.
Ben K.
I began seeing Dr. Patel virtually a few months ago. Had been dealing with chronic “gut issues” for at least a decade (along with many seemingly related ailments) and finally feel like I am making progress in just a few months because of his treatment plan. It has been a refreshing experience contrasted with the countless doctors I’d seen previously who were not nearly as helpful or easy to talk with. Dr. Patel took time to explain what he was thinking regarding my symptoms and my treatment plan and was open and flexible when I tried supplements that didn’t seem to agree with me. I now feel like I am in the middle of healing and I have more hope for my well-being in the future than I’ve had in a very long time. Also, Shelli, the person in Dr. Maura’s office who handles the scheduling and tests has been very helpful and always communicates quickly and efficiently. This is also rare in my experience dealing with Dr.s’ offices.
Courtney D.
Working with Dr. Patel has had such a positive impact on my well-being. Dr. Patel takes the time to listen and understand what's going on, and genuinely wants to figure out the best path forward.

Thanks to Dr. Maura and her practice, my wife and I expecting a baby. I don't usually write reviews, but have to express my huge thanks and convey to anyone looking for a functional medicine practice that gives answers around infertility, this is the place. My wife and I both had issues: my sperm quality was low and our reproductive endocrinologist had no answers. My wife was struggling with PCOS and our reproductive endo was telling us there was no chance of a natural conception. Wrong. After working with Dr. Cavanaugh for a few months, my wife's hormones were in a totally different place – really her whole health picture turned around. I worked with Dr. Cavanaugh as well, in that period of time and my sperm quality increased dramatically. We were able to conceive naturally. It's sort of a miracle. Dr. Maura met with us as well during the months we were with the practice, and she was extremely helpful and knowledgeable as well. Shelli, the practice manager, couldn't have been more supportive on emails and testing. Can't recommend this practice highly enough.
Kim A.
I've been a patient of Dr. Maura's for a while, and I must say that I am very pleased with the care she has given me. After she diagnosed me with SIBO, I was given a course of naturopathic treatments which significantly calmed it down. And before taking a trip to India last year, Dr. Maura gave a regimen of pro-biotics to take in preparation for the trip, and after the trip, too, and I did not have any stomach problems as a result. Attentive, professional and extremely caring, Dr. Maura is a top notch naturopathic doctor. I highly recommend her services!
Jill W.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Moore for the past 6 months for hormone balance and she has been wonderful! She is knowledgeable, caring and thorough. She explains lab results in way that make sense to me and then explains options and choices for next steps. I appreciate how she involves me in helping make a wellness plan that fits with my life style. I’m grateful for Dr. Moore and difference she’s made in my health journey!
Erica A.
Dr. Cavanaugh is absolutely wonderful! She is kind, knowledgable, and detail-oriented. She has been helping me for the past couple of months deal with complex female health issues and transitioning off of the BC pill by testing food sensitivities, healing my gut, and understanding my hormones. Dr. Cavanaugh is the first naturopathic doctor I’ve seen and the visits are worth the extra $. The peace of mind and knowledge I have on my health alone is priceless.
Rebecca o.
I started seeing Dr. Maura last May as I was having on going stomach/ gut issues for most of my adult life. After working with her and closely following her plan for 5-6 months, I can officially say my stomach issues have subsided. I had seen multiple gastroenterologists in the past and had tried many elimination diets but I love food and cooking and this was not the route for me. Dr Maura worked to identify the foods causing my issues and we came up with a plan so that I would ultimately be able to reintroduce those trigger foods over time. The plan worked and now I have reintroduced all foods back into my diet! Highly recommend working with her 🙂 She is super knowledgeable and understanding.
Venus C.
I’ve been a patient of Dr.Kellie for years now and I’m so happy I found her. She is so knowledgeable and just has a calming welcoming presence that puts you at ease. I’ve seen her for all kinds of ailments and I have complete trust in her. My daughter has seen her too. I highly recommend Dr. Kellie!
Sandy W.
Wonderful care; very knowledgeable and compassionate and helped me address some GI issues that my traditional doctors couldn't.

I have been seeing Dr. Patel now since October. I was struggling with many gut issues, extreme fatigue and etc, etc. I was very much unimpressed with my GI’s response to the worsening of my symptoms. Beyond my required colonoscopy I get every 3 yrs she is pretty useless. I wanted to go the functional medicine route because I have seen so many people I know Band-Aid symptoms instead of discovering the root cause that is creating the symptom. I didn’t want to continue the cycle, I wanted to irradiate it. Before seeing Dr. Patel I would blindly take supplements based only on what I thought I needed but I would not achieve the desired result. Since I have started treatment with Dr. Patel my health has done a complete 180. He ordered a few diagnostic tests and a lab. Then he gave me a treatment protocol that we adjust based on the progress/new results etc. His temperament is very approachable and easy to talk to. He really aims to educate on what you’re dealing with so you are very much in the loop on why he recommends certain things and how they work. I just bought a book he recommended. He also suggested to me when he was covering the labs that I record so I can reference later because he covers so much it could be confusing when thinking back on the conversation later. Dr. Patel is also always prepared for our visits, he doesn’t need to be reminded of everything we already covered and where we are now. Lastly, sometimes when I am working from home I won’t put makeup on or have some huge sweater. I wouldn’t typically go to the doctor like that but Dr. Patel doesn’t feel judgmental if I call into our appointment like that. I am so thankful for his efforts/treatment etc as well as Shelli who is the office manager. Shelli is extremely responsive and friendly if I want to reconfirm anything she reaches out to Dr. Patel and gets back to me in a very timely manner. I also had originally reached out to her in 2020 when my symptoms originally began and when it became apparent they weren’t going away I took the plunge. Shelli walked me through the whole process and practice each time I asked any questions. My only regret is not going sooner, great level of care and great results thus far. I finally am starting to be able to do the things I enjoy and feel like myself again! I am excited to continue to restore my health with Dr. Patel. I have recommended him to my good friend and I would recommend him to anyone who wants quality comprehensive care.

I've been working for Dr. Patel for several months now—ever since my daughter talked me into trying a functional health practitioner. I have been absolutely delighted by the results I've achieved with Dr. Patel's guidance on everything from supplements to nutrition and exercise. The great thing about functional health is that, through regular testing, you can track your improvements on various markers; and my improvements have been incredibly encouraging. I'm a big fan of Dr. Patel and his thoughtful approach to optimizing health rather than waiting to treat disease downstream. My whole family works with him now; and I've recommended Dr. Patel to extended family members as well. Very, very highly recommended!

I began working with Dr. Patel 10 months ago for chronic GI problems. He had me complete several tests, from which it was learned that I had SIBO, leaky gut, and low T3 hormone. After years of working with conventional medicine doctors, who told me I seemed healthy or simply told me I had IBS, Dr. Patel finally identified the root causes of my severe GI issues. Dr. Patel proceeded to put me on an herbal SIBO protocol and prescribed me supplements to support my anxiety and thyroid problems. After several weeks with these new supplements, I noticed an improvement in my GI symptoms and anxiety. Additionally, Dr. Patel’s approach to chronic health problems is holistic, and he recommended I begin a program for reversing limbic system impairment in the brain, which is a driver of many chronic illnesses. At my last appointment with Dr. Patel, he introduced a supplement to improve leaky gut and prescribed me a hormone test. Overall, Dr. Patel seems to absolutely know what he is doing in dealing with chronic GI issues, and I am excited to continue working with him. If you are dealing with chronic GI problems that conventional doctors have failed to address, I highly recommend giving Dr. Patel a try.

So happy I discovered Dr. Patel. You can tell he genuinely cares about your health and is always a pleasure to speak to, especially when compared to some of the more traditional doctors. After two years of feeling bloated and excessive flatulence, i discovered I had SIBO with Dr. Patel. Within 3 months, I am back to eating all the foods i missed. My only complaint are the prices, but hard to put a price on your health!

Dr. Maura embodies a truly holistic to health and wellness. Focusing on root causation to dis-ease, her approach empowers you by understanding what are the areas of the body that are in balance, working to hard or not working enough. Over the past several years I have gone from anxious and out of whack to calm, peaceful and full of life. What a godsend Dr. Maura is.......a true rare breed in wellness.

Dr. Patel is a great listener. He has new and alternative solutions.

I’ve been going to Dr. Maura since around late October/November 2017 for gastrointestinal issues after being dismissed by other doctors stating I have ibs. After seeing Dr. Maura I got a proper diagnosis and have started healing. Dr. Maura took time to listen to all my concerns and questions and was very knowledgeable and informative about all the treatments I’ve done so far. I have the highest hopes now after seeing Dr. Maura for my health and I would recommend her to all my friends and family.
Jaime S.
Dr. Kellie Moore is patient, kind, and knowledgeable. I don’t ever feel rushed when I meet with Dr. Kellie. She really takes time to dig into what could be the root underlying cause of symptoms. Her recommendations have greatly improved my conditions.
Kathleen C.
I've been working with Dr. Maura for the last year. I went to her initially to learn more about my body during aging, and to prevent chronic diseases. Dr. Maura was able to take my 23andMe genetic profile combine with blood analysis to examine potential inflammation markers. She told me which foods were good for my digestive system, and which I should avoid. If you are interested in integrative, preventive medicine, she is an INCREDIBLE doctor. I highly recommend her without reservation. You will not be disappointed.
Ariel W.
Dr. Maura has changed my life! After nearly a decade of trying medications, remedies and doctors that temporarily would put a "band-aid" on my stomach problems, I was on a mission to find a real cure. After meeting with Dr. Maura, we spent months coming up with plans to heal my gut. Finally, about a year and a half later, I am rid of chronic bloating, stomach pains, etc., and just feel so much healthier overall. Thank you Dr. Maura!
Monica A.
Dr. Kellie is amazing. Not only has she taken great care of my health, but also she is lovely to speak with at every appointment. It’s rare to find a doctor like her. I highly recommend becoming her patient!
Joseph M.
Dr. Maura was great to work with as she actually listens and came up with a customized care plan that worked with my lifestyle. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to work with an excellent Naturopath.
Ariana M.
Dr. Lieb has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She has helped me with my PCOS and I am now considered in remission for it. She's very thorough in her explanations and is always very receptive to any and all questions I have, whether it be about my PCOS or my health and well being in general. Highly recommend her and the entire Dr. Maura practice. Everyone here has been amazing to work with and always puts the client first.
Sierra K.
Dr. Shannon Cavanaugh went above and beyond to answer all of my questions before starting my fertility journey, setting me up with the knowledge and supplementary regimen to get pregnant with our beautiful daughter, Lucy!

I have been working with Dr. Maura since January 2024 to find relief from chronic perioral dermatitis. Her mission is to find true healing for her patients, rather than band-aid solutions and that's what she's done for me by helping me find relief for my skin issues. Working with her so far has been life changing for me. For three years I went between my dermatologist and allergist trying to figure out why I was breaking out in rashes on my face. I took blood tests, prick tests, patch tests to check for allergies, food intolerances, autoimmune diseases, viral infections and not getting any real answers on what was triggering the rashes on my face. After 2.5 years I finally got the diagnosis of perioral dermatitis from my allergist, but I was just prescribed allergy meds, ointments and steroids that felt like it was making my situation worse and not getting to the heart of the problem. I started looking into Naturopathy because I knew something else was going on and I wanted someone to have a real holistic look at my health. From the moment I reached out to Dr. Maura's practice, it was a transparent and open conversation. The first appointment she listened to what I was going through and where I've been, and asked questions about my general health. She took a look at my past lab results and pictures. She felt confident we could get me to.a path to healing and that made me feel confident too! She then recommended some additional labs to get an overall look at my health. They were mailed directly to my home and were easy to perform. The second appointment we went over the lab results which showed I was having gut issues that possibly were effecting my skin. She prescribed me a treatment plan which was a mix of supplements and diet for six weeks. My third appointment we discussed the results and I was soo happy to have had six weeks of no face inflammations by following her plan!! After three years of struggle I had found relief in under six weeks! Before they even booked my first appointment they were upfront about costs for each appointment and estimated costs for labs and meds, so there were no surprises at any point in the process. Dr. Maura works with Fullscript for the prescription plan if you have any needed supplements, and they were delivered right to my door and I had the option of auto-refills. If I had any questions as I was waiting for my next appointment, Shelli who is the practice manager, was really quick to respond to my inquiries through email. In addition to having relief from my rash outbreaks, I feel healthier than I have in ten years! I lost weight that I needed to lose, I am sleeping better, and my overall mental health is better. I cannot recommend Dr. Maura enough and am looking forward to continuing working with her.
Audrey H.
I appreciate Dr. Maura so much. She helped me get to an extremely healthier state and has been with me every step of the way. I have only had positive experiences with her. Highly recommend.
Paulina G.
It was May 2024 and I woke up again with a big bloated belly, I had tried everything, every diet, every tip on the internet, I was on my 4th doctor, and my SIBO still wouldn't go away. I was beyond upset, I looked 4 months pregnant. In a panic I started googling again and I came across Dr. Patel and his glowing reviews, and boy am I happy I did. I cannot express my deep gratitude for Dr. Patel, my SIBO is gone, my stomach is flat again, and I feel better than ever! I was able to be in a bathing suit all summer without feeling self conscious. He found out WHY I was having the issue instead of just blindly prescribing medicine. Everything was so exact and detailed, I finally felt like I was being heard. If you are on the fence about seeing a naturopath this is your sign to see Dr. Patel, I feel like i'm finally myself again! It's now September 2024 and we are still working together, Dr. Patel is so helpful around a multitude of issues. I couldn't recommend him more!
Jeremy N.
I really appreciate having Dr. Kellie Moore as my doctor. Her ability to solve complex problems and assign lifestyle and nutritional based therapies that work to bring balance and health to my life are impressive. She is always responsive to questions and always willing to dig deeper for answers.

Dr. Lieb has been wonderful to work with. I suffer from IBD, IBS, anxiety, and some periods of pressure headaches. Blood results from GP normal, so my friend recommended I try functional medicine to try and help me feel better. Dr. Lieb has been incredibly thorough and my IBS and headaches have significantly improved due to her recommendations. I am now taking a few supplements when I wasn’t taking any before because I didn’t know what would best suit me. It’s very expensive because functional medicine not covered by insurance but for me, completely worth the money. I encourage you to contact this practice if you want to feel better.
Viktor K.
As someone who has struggled with nebulous stomach problems for 15 years (since I was nine), and seen numerous other doctors and tried various kinds of medicine, I cannot recommend functional/holistic medicine enough as a great way to get to the root of the health issue. Dr Patel is a phenomenal practitioner who has helped me over the last seven months go from only being able to tolerate certain foods to being able to eat a range of things without my stomach causing me pain. My favorite parts about this is the relative affordability of treatment (medicine is fairly inexpensive) and how Dr Patel would walk me through the labs and help me understand what each marker means, and the best way to improve those things. I truly felt that Dr Patel gave me the right treatment when other doctors would not, and I am not exaggerating when I say that 15 years of discomfort due to my health issues may be coming to an end under Dr Patel’s supervision. I highly recommend him for GI/autoimmune issues. Thanks Dr Patel! You rock!
Sabine L.
Before working with Dr. Patel, I was at a loss for how to deal with symptoms I had been struggling with when other doctors told me I would have to live with them. In just a few months of working with him, I've taken tests that no other doctors has ordered to identify the root cause of so many symptoms. After almost a year, I feel the best I have in years. He's attentive and supportive as a doctor, and it's truly been the best investment in my health.
Bridgett B.
Dr. Muara has been such a blessing in our lives!! I feel like she literally saved my daughters life. I went to her when I was desperate and in tears. My 2 year old daughter wasn't my happy little girl anyone... she cried all the time, wasn't talking as much as she should have been, her focus was all over the place... the list goes on. I remember Dr Muara being so calm in our first session. Today my 4 year old is healthy and thriving!!! She uncovered gut issues that a general doctor would have never caught. I also started working with her for my own health. She's smart, calm and meets you where you are.. but gives you a little push when needed to lead you in the direction of your best health! Thanks Dr Muara!!
Stefanie C.
Dr. Maura has helped me heal my gut and reduce inflammation due to long term antidepressant use and other infections that I encountered throughout the past few years (SIBO). I was desperate and tried so many different things until I found Dr. Maura on the internet. She has truly changed my life!! I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for natural healing.
Cara S.
I see Ronak Patel, ND via video. He’s knowledgeable and patient. He explains lab panels line by line and encourages me to work towards the goals we set together. Over the course of 5 months, my Sicca symptoms and fatigue have diminished and the out-of-range lab panels are normalizing. The 2-hour naps, the oral melts, gels, eye drops, humidifiers, wedge pillow, and H2 blockers are no longer interventions necessary in order for me to function. Working with Dr. Patel has given me renewed courage and hope in living with autoimmunity. Thank you, Dr. Patel, for giving me invaluable tools and insights into my health.
Kurt H.
Before meeting with Dr Patel, I was struggling with super bad bloating/gas and abdominal pain. I visited several gastroenterologists for almost a full year, and I never got a straight answer about what was causing my symptoms. This was so frustrating. Dr. Patel ordered me several at home tests and we discovered I was dealing with SIBO and Leaky Gut. Finally having an answer about what was happening to my body was so refreshing. From then on I have been working with Dr. Patel to help heal from SIBO and Leaky Gut. My symptoms are not totally gone and I still have work to do. But wow, I feel A LOT better than a year ago. And that’s because of Dr. Patel. I’m excited to fully heal with his help and the structured plan he has created for me.
Aldyn O.
I worked with Dr. Maura regarding numerous issues. I had recently started college and was experiencing digestive issues, acne, fatigue, and anxiety. The tests she offered gave me insight to the problems I was having and after a couple months of natural treatment I'm symptom free.
Katarina S.
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!
Lauren M.
I was so worried about stopping birth control and what would happen to my PCOS symptoms. Thankfully I found Dr. Shannon! Forever grateful to her for guiding me step by step on how to successfully stop birth control and for simultaneously addressing my PCOS at the root cause. I've never met a doctor like her before: she truly understands women's hormones and was able to look at me as an individual and tell me exactly what I needed to do to have a normal period — no PCOS symptoms (acne, hair loss, weight gain). I truly recommend her for anyone with similar issues, she's incredible.
Alita M.
I sought out Dr. Maura after having extreme stomach pain for six months. The first consultation I had she asked me many questions to get to know me and my issues. She was very knowledgeable and knew almost immediately that it was a gastrointestinal (GI) issue. She promptly gave me a couple lab tests to complete at home so we could figure out exactly what was creating the GI issues. The next appointment we discussed the lab results, she put me on a diet, and gave me supplements. I started seeing results and feeling a lot better not even a week later. Since I've been seeing Dr. Maura my GI has gotten so much better and now I know more about what caused my stomach pains to begin with. She changed my life for the better and I couldn't have been happier in her care!
Marjean L.
Dr. Patel has helped me tremendously with my digestive problems. Testing showed I had SIBO, H.Pylori, and Candida overgrowth. We are also working towards getting me off Omeprazole which I have been taking for many years. He explained my test results very thoroughly making it easy to understand them. His treatment has been slow and methodical and has been easy to follow, with me seeing results as time goes by. Dr. Patel is easy to talk with and is very encouraging. He listens to my progress reports at our appointments and adjusts treatment as needed. He is full of knowledge. It is a journey that has been very worthwhile.
Eric E.
Thank you Dr. P. What a wealth of knowledge!.
michael t.
Virtually working Dr. Ronak Patel has been a true pleasure. In a medical community that focuses on a narrow spectrum, Dr. Patel took his time and worked on much more holistic approach to my ailments. I feel great and better than ever. Taking a proactive approach to my health has been the greatest decision.
Marland B.
Dr. Maura helped me beat SIBO and guided me through the recovery for months after
Ethan M.
Dr. Patel is THE BEST and I cannot recommend him highly enough. I've benefited greatly from having him as a resource in treating my SIBO and will continue to work with him in the future!
Maureen N.
Dr. Maura is an exceptional doctor. She stands out in the crowded field of holistic medicine with her huge expertise, accessibility and warmth. She and her office staff are so completely available between visits to answer questions and field concerns. This kind of healing is complex and Dr. Maura kindly held my hand every step of the way. Dr. Maura would always make sure I understood every aspect of her evaluations and recommendations. I can't express my gratitude enough and recommend her to anyone looking for a great doctor for their chronic issue. I've recommended her to all my family and friends.
A M.
Dr. Patel is fantastic. He is responsive, cares about healing his patients, and most importantly is highly knowledgeable. I’ve been working with Dr. Patel for about 4 months now and have seen amazing improvement with my GI/SIBO symptoms. Highly recommend.
Diana E.
My daughter and I have been seeing Dr Patel for about a year now. I had chronic bursitis issues and she had major gut issues. He does a great job explaining how he comes up with treatment plans and how to get to the bottom of actual problems. He’s not in it to keep you on meds and tests forever, he wants you to heal and continue living a healthy life. We have both healed and now I am approaching him again to understand my hormones given that I am approaching that perimenopause time in life. The best part of Dr Patel is he doesn’t let you go down a rabbit hole of social media craziness but rather guides you to a common sense approach to your problems . I recommend him to everyone!!

I decided to consult a naturopathic doctor after struggling with a hormonal imbalance for years. I had already seen other conventional doctors who always pushed several medications which I knew would never solve the actual source of the problem within my body. While I had changed my diet and made several lifestyle changes on my own already, I still struggled with keeping my labs and bloodwork results in check. I began searching for naturopathic doctors in my area and came across Dr. Maura's website. After reading such great reviews, I decided to seek her guidance and I am SO glad I did!! Not only does Dr. Maura take the time to truly learn about your health ailments, lifestyle, habits, concerns, etc., she comes up with an individual plan tailored just for YOU. I was initially nervous on how effective our telephone calls would be in the middle of a pandemic, but from the first phone call, Dr. Maura made me feel comfortable as if I was sitting face to face right in her office. We set up a plan for me to follow for about 3 months and at our 3 month check-in we redid my blood work. I was completely shocked to see all of my results came back normal without any trace of hormonal issues AT ALL. Within 3 short months, Dr. Maura was able to fix an issue that I had been dealing with for YEARS. I cannot begin to describe how thankful I am for her expertise and true dedication to helping her clients better their overall health. I would without a doubt recommend her to anybody interested in consulting a naturopathic doctor. She is extremely knowledgeable and very easy to talk to! Also huge thanks to Shelli for being such a great help as well!

I looked for a naturopathic doctor near me (NY) to get to the bottom of my GI issues (the usual nasty GI symptoms which I won't go into detail about, but for anyone who's had them, you know what I mean), which were also causing some serious secondary issues--namely food sensitivities (swollen face, itchy skin rashes, ugh). I I know a lot about conventional doctors because I've often seen elderly family members go to doctors & hospitals who prescribe too many prescription drugs. From their experiences, I learned a lot about the limitations and downside of conventional medicine.That's why I did not want to go to a conventional doctor because they know next to nothing about nutrition (they only receive 4 hours of training in nutrition during their entire medical education), and they usually know nothing at all about natural healing (because they've been programed to push pharmaceuticals). When I found Dr. Patel (the GI specialist in Dr. Maura's practice), right away in our first consultation (1 full hour), I had a good impression. Dr. Patel is eloquent and has an easygoing manner. He explained everything to me clearly and succinctly, answered all of my MANY questions, and then told me how to proceed. His office staff (Shellie) is delightfully easy to reach by phone. She is refreshingly efficient and has always responded to my calls and emails immediately and always to my complete satisfaction. Awesome! She gets 5 stars from me, too! So she sent me the kits for the 2 tests he prescribed (the poop test and saliva test, both which I could do from home), as well as all the materials I needed to send the tests to the various labs (packaging & mailing labels, which made it really easy for me). She also sent me the requisition for the blood test--for that I had to find and go to a lab--Dr. Patel recommended 3, and I used the one that was the least expensive). After he got the test results (after about 1 week), we had another consultation (1/2 hour) in which he identified and described the problems I had--I won't go into detail except to say that one of the issues was microbial parasites (yikes!), which I've since learned is quite common, maybe 50% of Americans have them, without knowing it--you can get them from contaminated food or water, so if you eat out a lot (like I used to) and you've got GI issues, you've probably got parasites! If you have any GI issues (such as frequent loose bowels), the FIRST thing you should do is to check for parasites. Conventional doctors rarely test for parasites. Go figure. I followed Dr. Patel's advice STRICTLY and felt much better within one week (i.e., no more GI distress). After one month, I felt completely cured, and after 3 months I felt great! Everyone tells me I look great, too! I keep getting compliments. His program is easy: he prescribed several natural supplements and a diet plan--that's all. Painless and without pharmaceuticals (prescription drugs always have nasty side effects, which is why I don't want to use them). Plus, from the test results (he's an experienced "lab guy" and interpreted those lab reports like Derek Jeter played shortstop--For those of you who don't know baseball, that means he's not just good, he's great at it), he identified OTHER potential health issues which up until then I had NO idea about (thyroid & blood sugar levels, yikes!), which I feel I've nipped in the bud, thanks to Dr. Patel! Another plus: Consultations were always very conveniently held via Zoom and on time--I absolutely despise having to waste my time in conventional doctors' waiting rooms--they never see you at at the scheduled time, but only when they're ready to see you. The only downside about any naturopathic doctor is that your health insurance provider may not pay for all or perhaps any of it. My advice: If you have the money, IT'S WORTH IT. You'll only have to do the program once. You heal, and you also learn about how to stay healthy. That is invaluable.
Nisha M.
I have been seeing Dr. Maura for years now and I can’t say enough great things about her! She has completely healed me of my skin issues that I have been battling with for a very long time. What I love about her is that she takes the time to listen to you and genuinely cares for your well-being. She ran some tests on me to help pin point what could be causing some of my issues and put me on a customized plan of herbal supplements. Through this whole process I have learned so much about naturopathy and the importance of treating the cause of the disease vs. the symptoms. Dr. Maura is truly one of the best and I would recommend her to anyone that is looking for an all-natural approach to help heal the body.
Sabina H.
Working with Dr. Maura has been a delight in so many ways. As a 30 year old woman who has been dealing with thyroid,hormonal and digestive issues for over 10 years...I finally found a doctor I trust who can safely guide me in the right direction. Dr Maura asks questions about my well being and had me take a few hormone /mineral tests which helped to create an easy and doable treatment program. I am about two months into my regimen and for the first time in IDK how long, I have ovulated. My mood and energy has shifted to a place of more peace and calm and I am going to the bathroom daily! I'm thankful for people like her who actually care and view the body as a complete system. We dont realize how much vitality we are supposed to be feeling until we start healing and taking care of ourselves.
Dana G.
I had been having symptoms of bloating, a pushing feeling in my stomach, tiredness, brain fog, severe allergies and general malaise for a few years. I saw many doctors and none has answers for me and dismissed my symptoms after some “routine blood work” as age (I’m 39) and stress. In researching gut health and brain fog, I came across Dr. Maura and I am so thankful I did!!! I didn’t know what to expect since I had never seen a ND before.When i met with her I felt like someone was finally listening to me and taking my symptoms seriously! She did a very comprehensive workout involving blood work and at home kits. When my results were in, she sat down with me and thoroughly went over a plan to get my gut on track as well as my thyroid since the tests she performed revealed thyroid antibodies. The plan involved diet changes as well as supplements. Within a month my brain fog was almost gone, my stomach no longer had that pushing bloated feeling and my energy level had increased! If i was feeling 3/10 when I originally went to Dr Maura, I was now feeling 8/10! If you have been searching for answers and coming up empty and if you have been searching for a doctor who will listen and understand, look no further! Dr. Maura has helped me immensely and I am forever grateful I went the ND route!
Jennell J.
Once I got off of hormonal birth control after being on it for 10 years I experienced some serious adult acne along with chronic fatigue and all around hormonal imbalance. I knew traditional medicine specialists would only recommend I got back on the pill or for me to start medication, so that was when I found Dr. Lieb. I’ve had about 5 visits with her thus far and the symptoms I was experiencing months ago have seriously improved. Utilizing a variety of tests has definitely prevented the guessing game and provided me with real results to go off of. So happy I chose this route and would recommend anyone experiencing similar issues to see Dr. Lieb!
Ankit K.
Dr. Patel has been a life-changer for me. Before seeing him, I consulted multiple doctors, but my health didn't improve at all. Luckily, I found Dr. Patel. From the beginning, he listened to my entire history with patience and provided a comprehensive plan for the next four months. I started gradually with all the supplements he suggested and saw a remarkable improvement in my symptoms. At the moment, my health is almost back to normal, and I am able to enjoy everything under the sun. I would highly recommend Dr. Patel for any GI-related issues!
Papa A.
Having been diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, my gastroenterologist placed me on a daily dose of mercaptopurine. In spite of the medication, I continued to experience abdominal discomfort, and on occasion, pain, severe enough to require a hospitalization. When my doctor suggested I begin taking Humira, I was so frightened by the drug’s potential side-effects that I refused. My wife suggested I seek a more natural solution to my condition, which brought me to Dr. Maura Henninger. After a few simple tests, Dr. Maura provided a list of foods I should avoid, a specific carbohydrate diet and a few daily supplements to support my digestive system and reduce inflammation. Within six weeks, my C-Reactive Protein level dropped from over 100 mg/L to 5.27 mg/L. I feel wonderful and haven’t had any reoccurrence of discomfort or pain. My gastroenterologist is extremely pleased and continues to monitor my condition. He has taken me off all medication! I have Dr. Maura to thank for what could have been a life long struggle with medications, side effects and abdominal pain. She is truly a lifesaver!
Robin H.
I started working with Dr. Ron Patel several months ago for chronic gut issues. I am very pleased with his care and treatment plan for me. I am remarkably feeling better under his guidance. I highly recommend him as a doctor for any gut issues.
Lexi C.
Dr. Patel is awesome! I’ve been working with him for about a month and results are already showing in my skin and gut. He listens and explains things clearly so I feel like I truly understand what is going on. Highly recommend!
Abrehet F.
If you are looking for a doctor who cares about your overall wellness and supports your health journey- look no further than Dr. Kellie Moore. Since my first visit, and checkups thereafter, I have never felt so empowered, and cared for. She is a wealth of knowledge and experienced in meeting your health needs. She is also compassionate, genuine, and kind. I’ve been honored to have her as my doctor, and you will be too!
Jaclyn F.
Dr Maura is an amazing doctor and has been treating me for almost two years now. She is extremely professional, caring and smart. She has helped me manage pain naturally and it has made a huge difference in my life.
Dana T.
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.
heather a.
I have been working with Dr. Maura for a few years. She has been able to diagnose, address, and treat me from a holistic viewpoint while taking into account the specifics of the areas of my body needing treatment. In a matter of months under Dr. Maura's guidance, fibromyalgia and its debilitating symptoms have been eradicated. Over the years I have continued to look to Dr. Maura for my general health care, more like a PCP. I am healthier than I have ever been. I eat well, I sleep well, I have energy and focus not fatigue and pain. Her knowledge is only surpassed by her kindness. Truly a life saver.
Ariane L.
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.
Stephanie B.
Dr. Patel is amazing! He’s helped me to feel so much better all while paying great attention to detail in every appointment. I’m very lucky to have found him!
