“I was surprised how quickly I started feeling better had done a lot of the same things but didn't get the results that I got this time.”
“You can feel one way at 9 a.m. and then you're getting ready to go out with your friends and all of a sudden you look pregnant and you're so bloated... I don't really have to worry about that a lot now.”
“It's an investment and that part might scare you a little bit, but it's so worth it because you think about how much money we spend trying to feel better.”
The interview
What would you tell people who are hesitant about the cost of the program?
I would want people to know that yes, it's an investment and that part might scare you a little bit, but it's so worth it because you think about how much money we spend trying to feel better, going to doctors visits. Your health is worth that investment to feel better for the rest of your life and to have the tools that you need.
What is your background and where are you from?
My name is Stephanie. I live in Belmont, New Hampshire, and I'm a dental hygienist.
Why did you choose Dr. Autoimmune over other practitioners?
I've been to other functional medicine practitioners and I didn't get the best results. I had seen Dr. Ian on TikTok and I watched a lot of his lives and so I decided to go ahead and contact them. Traditional medicine just wasn't helping me.
What were your first impressions of Dr. Ian?
He really hit on a lot of the things that I already felt were valuable and important. So I felt very comfortable that he was really knowledgeable in what he was practicing. I was surprised how quickly I started feeling better; I had done a lot of the same things before but didn't get the results that I got this time.
What specific health changes have you experienced?
I think some of the biggest things that have changed for me is that my skin is so much better. I had a lot of eczema and a lot of issues with my skin. Also, with the gut inflammation, you can feel one way at 9 a.m. and then you're getting ready to go out and all of a sudden you look pregnant because you're so bloated. I don't really have to worry about that a lot now.
How long did it take to notice these changes?
I think I started to notice a change really within the first month of changing my diet and being really strict about that. That really helped.
What was your experience like with the support staff and nutritionist?
I got to tell you, Stevie, his nutritionist, love her. Everybody will love her. I had other experiences with other functional medicine practitioners that made you feel really bad about yourself. Stevie is an absolute wonderful part of this whole process and the team. Nutrition has so much to do with how we feel and how this process works for each person individually.
