I'm very thankful… I have come through a long period of time where I dealt with daily headaches and generally feeling bad. As a result of the few changes I have already made, I am headache free! Plus generally feeling better over all with more energy. M.M.

I am 75 years old. I am so grateful to have found Dr. Libert when I was so run out of help from all other docs. She first treated me for SIBO. She showed me a way of eating that really helped, and most importantly, I love the food that helps me. I lost all that mid body and belly fat, I now have regular bowel movements, every day. What more could I ask for? She has introduced me to so many other truly helpful products and treatments so that I do not just have be satisfied with "getting old", and I can have a very positive outlook today and everyday for the rest of my life.

My experience with Dr. Libert has been nothing short of amazing. She listened to me and my health concerns in the most caring way possible. She spent time discussing and reviewing treatment options, which I could tell were well researched. I also admire that she took an evidence based approach, yet considered the most natural means of improving my health versus just recommending medication. I could tell she is passionate about her work and I truly appreciate her care. I also had a wonderful experience with her receptionist, Jan. She was incredibly easy to work with and always had a personal touch. I highly recommend Caring for the Body. Thank you for caring so well for me! C.Q.

I have been a patient of Caring for the Body for about 3 and a half months now, and I have seen a lot of doctors over the past 15 years searching for the root cause of my chronic illness. I have never met a team so organized and attentive to detail! I finally feel like I have someone on my side working with me as a team instead of just going through the motions of their job duties. Due to the complicated nature of chronic illness, a lot can be lost in translation or just the shear amount of information/history that needs to be conveyed. Dr. Libert truly has a gift for communication and worked diligently during discovery to ensure that she understood my individual case by repeating my story, symptoms, and previous treatments periodically to ensure nothing was accidentally omitted or misconstrued. From there you can expect a follow up phone call in a few days from Jan to review the Dr.'s notes so everyone is on the same page going forward and to address any questions that may have arose since the visit. Jan has been an absolute saint as a go between between myself and the Dr. and makes this line of communication feel seamless and natural. From prompt return calls and messages, to above and beyond follow through, impeccable communication, compassion and eagerness to understand my individual case, I cannot speak highly enough this practice! Jan and Dr. Libert are truly on a mission to help people and it shows in so many ways! C.C.
