Regained Hormonal Health and Reduced Medications After 15 Years of Diabetes

Samantha Martin (00:00) if I had to just summarize my experience is that it's life-changing. it's life-changing to have someone really like sit you down, figure out what's wrong, and go from there and solve your problems versus just going in and being like... thrown another So I would say it's a shame if you go to another doctor and just get put on another medication because a lot of the time that's just gonna make you feel worse. my name is Samantha Martin. I'm located in Folsom, California, and I work in sales for a living. I've been type one for 15 years, diabetic, and I've been to, like, lots of endocrinologists and they oftentimes just like, look at my numbers and whatever. And that's kind of what I expected out of seeing her. first appointment with her, like I came in and I was like, here are my numbers, here are all my stats. And she like, sat me down, and asking me, you know, different questions. I mean, I wasn't getting my period for like years and years. And she was like, "we need to address this. we don't need to address just your numbers. Like, we need to address this. We need to figure out this." So she kind of coached me through what changes needed to be made, just taking me down the list and taking me off some of these medications I had been for so long. And I was able to kind of regain my cycle back and get my hormones in check and just feel a lot better. what surprised me the most how thorough everything was, truly. Like, she really goes through everything. She double checks everything. And her office is really good at keeping you in the loop, too, about everything that's going on and keeping you like, informed. I would just say that just the thoroughness of everything. everything is really good, clean, set out for you to be able to follow that path. Dr. Rangi really, like, empowered me to kind of like let go of some of these things that like I didn't need that I had been given by so many other doctors years before. Just the years of having diabetes, they're like, take this, take this, take this, you know, fix these problems. But those medications were causing me so many more problems that I didn't even know. So really the biggest impact was just being able to start over. You don't need all these things. And from there, you know, it was able to make my, my health so much better, hormones so much, like, better. And that made my head so much clearer. you have no idea the things that that feel better after you get these things in check. I've actually recommended Dr. Rangi to a lot of people. my fiance actually goes to Dr. Rangi too. I just trust her. and I feel like it's so hard to really wholeheartedly trust a lot of physicians. Not because they're bad, but because of the systems that we have in place, right? they're just looking to do these few things, but Dr. Rangi's actually looking to make your life better. So I trust her wholeheartedly. I recommend her to my family members. I just know that she'll take care of him.
