Patient Testimonials

“My son was 14 when we first visited Dr Margarita, he had been suffering from severe digestive issues and despite multiple rounds of treatment from a conventional practitioner the symptoms of nausea, acid reflux and abdominal pain were getting worse. Dr Margarita was extremely thorough and after the initial consultation and testing, she prescribed a regime of herbal medication, combining probiotics and natural antimicrobials. After a few weeks the symptoms lessened and he has been symptom free now for nearly two years.
We had a second consultation last year for anxiety and depression and again, Dr Margarita’s compassionate, thorough approach was outstanding - for the first time ever my son said he felt fully supported and understood and his mental health is now dramatically improved after a range of lifestyle and supplement based recommendations. I would thoroughly recommend this clinic.”

“After 10 years of searching for an answer to an answer to my gut problem, chronic pain and fatigue, I found the answer in Dr Margarita. After being told by the NHS and private consultants that they couldn't find a problem, certainly one which could be fixed surgically, I was beginning to question my sanity! Finding and meeting Dr Margarita was literally the last roll of the dice for me.
From our initial meeting I felt that at last someone was listening to and understanding my problem. A face to face meeting involved an in depth discussion so she could get a better understanding of me, my lifestyle and family history, all relevant to getting the right care. Obviously each individuals tests/care will be different but mine identified some serious gut conditions which the doctor was able to explain to me in layman's terms along with a recommended programme of treatment.
Dr Margarita's friendly, calm and focused manner is both reassuring and motivating. Although only part way through my programme, I feel I am beginning to get my life back and can resume some of the interests I have which I thought I'd lost forever.”
