Feeling better translates to living better
Jane* is trained as a health coach by the Institute of Functional Medicine. Hence, she had access to a lot of practitioners of functional medicine (IFM). When her son needed to see a functional medicine provider, she used the IFM website for her search. It was difficult to find doctors who treat children, so she was very excited to find Dr. Kanodia listed there.
When asked about her reasons for seeing Dr. Kanodia, Jane stated, “I am a firm believer of root cause medicine. Each person is unique, and they have different ways to heal.” She further added, “At Dr. Kanodia’s office they value the patient and respect their needs. They always give my son their listening ear and treat him with respect.”
Jane’s seven-year-old son was having issues with food sensitivity which was causing not just physical but also emotional symptoms. Her son felt miserable after he ate and after meals, his behavior would change. Jane noticed similarities as she felt the same as a kid and had food sensitivity issues growing up. She knew she wanted to get the best healthcare for her son possible.
A year ago, her son started seeing Dr. Kanodia and since then, his health has improved immensely. There is a noticeable difference. He has the ability to stay focused, his overall mood is better, and he seems happier. “My son now has more control in how he deals with his emotions, socially and alone. I can see that his confidence has improved,” Jane said in a tone of excitement.
She appreciates that the KanodiaMD team understands the patients’ daily challenges and take them into account when providing care and treatment. She added, “The team has extensive conversations to truly understand my son. When he had his first blood draw, the nurses at KanodiaMD made his experience smooth. For a seven-year-old the experience of having a needle in your arm can be difficult but the staff at KanodiaMD made his experience a positive one.” She believes that because of such interactions, her son feels empowered and has gained more confidence.
“As a mother, that means a lot to me,” she enthusiastically said.
The care at KanodiaMD has been transformative for Jane’s son. “Anyone who has been sick knows, you can’t live better until you feel better,” she stated. “It was challenging for my son to live in a way where he did not know how he would feel after eating. Now his life has changed for the better,” she further elaborated.
