The interview

What was your experience like working with Dr. Ian and his staff?

I feel like he's just been super encouraging, helpful. He knows when we have questions or like when it comes to results. And obviously it's not a one size fits all. And so it was just that him and his staff have been really good and pretty quickly between him and just working with the dietician, like I started seeing results pretty quick.

What was your health like before you started working with Dr. Ian?

Before I started working with Dr. Ian, I was having just a lot of health issues. So it's been over probably the last two, three years that things really started to decline. I had done some work previously before Dr. Ian. And then when I came to him, I just had a lot of different concerns and issues.

How did you feel about the initial process and meeting Dr. Ian?

Starting out with him was just really reassuring with just some of the stuff in the beginning of what he said, how things were gonna go. And it just kind of made it like more of an easy process and comfortable for us to know that it was the right fit. I had seen a couple of videos online that he had done. When we met with him, it just seemed like things were different the way he approached it.

What other treatments had you tried before coming to Dr. Autoimmune?

I had done a ton of different supplements and we did a lot of IV stuff. I did ozone. I had done a lot of stuff for over like a year and a half with each of them and I was seeing no results. And so that's where, when I came to him, I was a little bit hesitant just because we'd been at that process.

What specific symptoms were limiting your daily life?

I've dealt with a lot of fatigue for a long time. I was having issues with a lot of numbness tingling, an issue with my eye where I get like a glare in a spot. So I was kind of just limited on having energy, the things that I was able to do with my family. I felt like most days I was just stuck at home doing kind of not much and just like I was having to have my daughter's help a lot when it come to like cooking, cleaning, vacuuming.

How has your life changed since starting the protocol?

Since we've started the process, like a lot of that has come back to where I'm able to do a lot more of those things. I would recommend him because he has the experience, he has the tools that are needed to look for the answers, and he's willing to do that research and just figure out a plan for each individual.

Frequently asked

Is Dr. Autoimmune different from other natural practitioners?

Brandy was initially hesitant because she had spent over a year trying supplements, IV therapy, and ozone with other practitioners without seeing results. She found Dr. Ian's approach different because he focused on immediate results and was willing to change protocols quickly if the body didn't respond.

My name is Brandy Thornburg and I am from Nebraska and I'm stay at home mom. Before I started working with Dr. Ian, I was having just a lot of health issues. So it's been over probably the last two, three years that things really started to decline. I had done some work previously before Dr. Ian. And then when I came to him, I just had a lot of different concerns and issues. so starting out with him was just really reassuring with just some of the stuff in the beginning. of what he said, how things were gonna go. And it just kind of made it like more of an easy process and comfortable for us to know that it was the right fit. I have done a lot of research on my own and just looked at natural options. Previous, I had worked with a couple other practitioners, but at this point I wasn't seeing results with the things that I was previously doing. I had come across Dr. Ian and so was... Stuff that looked more of like things that I was dealing with because we weren't finding answers up until that point. I had seen a couple of videos online that he had done. I was a little hesitant because we've done a lot of stuff already. And so I was like, I don't know. And then my husband came across the same video. And so it just felt very fitting. And then when we met with him, it just seemed like things were different the way he approached it. I feel like I've kind of been strung along in the past. So it was kind of a good, just fitting. piece, I guess, for me, I had done a ton of different supplements and we did a lot of IV stuff. did ozone. I had done a lot of stuff for over like a year and a half with each of them and I was seeing no results. And so that's where, when I came to him, I was a little bit hesitant just because we'd been at that process. And so that's where it was kind of reassuring when he's like, well, we'll look at some of the beginning steps and then we can kind of go from there to see like the other thing was he just was like, you should be seeing results. right away and soon if you're not then we need to change protocol and kind of switch to find what's working for your body. So for me that was a good another step in sign too. Before I started working with him I was just kind of at a point where like I've dealt with a lot of fatigue for a long time. I was having issues with a lot of numbness tingling, an issue with my eye where I get like a glare in a spot. So I was kind of just limited on having energy, the things that I was able to do with my family. So I felt like most days I was just stuck at home doing kind of not much and just like I was having to have my daughter's help a lot when it come to like cooking, cleaning, vacuuming, just because if I did much, then it kind of wore me out quickly. But since we've started the process, like a lot of that has come back to where. I'm able to do a lot more of those things. I would recommend him because he has the experience, he has the tools that are needed to look for the answers, and he's willing to do that research and just figure out a plan for each individual to where you are gonna see results. And if you're not seeing them right away, then he's gonna do whatever you have to make that work and figure out what it is that you need to do to move forward.
