Root Cause Medical Clinic and Dr. Beth changed my life and I’m pretty certain saved me from developing an autoimmune disease. I came to them at time when I knew something wasn’t right and I didn’t feel well. After failed attempts with my primary care provider, I knew I had to pursue a health care team that shared my values and beliefs about health, and that healing first begins with better diet, lifestyle choices and behavior modifications. The name says it all “root cause.”  Their extensive testing revealed a handful of issues going on with my gut, hormones and glands. I am so grateful for Dr. Beth’s extensive knowledge and guidance. Appointments are amazing! I say this because she spent quality time and attention. I was given so much depth of understanding about my body and what is happening with gut bacteria and hormones and organ functions, etc. I am happy to say that I am feeling so much better, symptoms have cleared, my energy has returned. I am finally feeling well again and I feel empowered for the future. Again, I am so grateful to have Dr. Beth and the other providers to help maintain my excellent health.

I highly recommend Root Cause Medical Clinic! This is the first time I’ve taken the time to write a review for medical services. In 2008, I was diagnosed with Lupus. Later, in 2017, I was diagnosed with Crohns. I had always struggled with autoimmune conditions, occasional flare ups, joint pain, etc. Overall, I considered myself to be very health conscious; I went to the gym frequently, ate lots of fruits and vegetables, home pressed juices, homemade meals, etc.

Little did I know what “healthy” meant for me and my particular needs. In 2023, I became sick and was vomiting everyday for about 3 months. I lost a total of 20 pounds and was already small-framed to begin with. I experienced panic attacks, which I’d never had before. I also started experiencing heart palpitations, resulting in numerous hospital visits. I couldn’t keep my food down and I had no idea what was going on. Given my history of Crohns, I was due for an endoscopy/colonoscopy around this time. Among other diagnoses, I was told I had various enzyme deficiencies and had a hiatal hernia. Conventional doctors didn’t seem to think much of the hiatal hernia and I was being gas lit by my primary care physician who said I just had anxiety.

Curious to learn more and tired of the conventional doctors/lack of answers, I started looking into hiatal hernias and came across content from Dr. Vikki Peterson, describing Hiatal Hernia Syndrome. I booked my appointments and started my treatment plan. I am so thankful I did. I found out I have a severe gluten and wheat sensitivity, SIBO, gut permeability issues, low stomach acid, low pancreatic enzymes, subclinical h. pylori, and the list goes on and on.

Dr. Beth was amazing!! She is so knowledgeable and had me taking supplements to help fix my gut. Taking gluten out of my diet helped me so much. Although I already love cooking and eat healthy, Wendy helped give me lots of meal ideas and resources to effectively get through the elimination diet. Dr. Jake was always very accommodating to my very busy schedule.

I have more energy and think more clearly. I didn’t know this type of testing existed. I won’t lie. It is expensive and it will take self discipline but my health is worth it. There’s nothing more important than your well-being.

I would recommend their services to anyone looking for answers!

Working with Dr. Jake and the Root Cause team has been a great experience. They are all professional, caring and very knowledgeable. Unlike traditional medicine, they work to get to the "root cause". They have helped me to identify, control and overcome many issues. I'm very thankful for their practice.

I suffered for 8+ years with Gastrointestinal issues, because none of my doctors were ever able to identify the root cause. However, thanks to Root Cause Medical Clinic and Dr. Beth, I am well on my way to a full recovery. They were able figure out exactly my issues, treat them, and educate me on how to better take care of myself to prevent and eliminate future episodes.

I am no longer experiencing any symptoms. My joints pain are now gone. I have lost weight and I am feeling great!

Getting treatment from Root Cause Medical Clinic was one of the best decisions that I had ever made.

For a little over a month now, I've been receiving treatment from Dr. Jake and the rest of the Root Cause team. The results have been impressive. Since starting, I've been able to throw away 4 blood pressure medications that I've been on for over a decade. My severe acid reflux, while stubborn, has also improved, and I am hopeful I will be able to put this condition along with the harmful medication to bed in time. Dr. Jake, my nutritionist, along with the other doctors and staff have been wonderful, supportive and professional. I am so very grateful.

I have been working with the team at Root Cause for the last couple of months to treat the "root cause" of my hiatal hernia (with accompanying abdominal pressure and breathlessness, and acid reflux)

I am very impressed with their multi-pronged approach to treatment which stems, I believe, from their philosophy of the body as a holistic entity capable of self-healing. The stool test ordered for me revealed an H. pylori. stomach infection, some additional pathogen overgrowth, and general dysbiosis. Dr. Jake designed a personal stretching/strengthening program to loosen up my tight diaphragm.

After working with RC's registered dietician, and Drs. Jake and Rick, I am elated to report that I haven't had any instances of abdominal pressure and breathlessness in weeks. I can breathe much better during my swim workouts.
I've even noticed that my mood is better, I'm happier, and less stiff in my joints overall. I am currently using the natural antimicrobials prescribed by RC to treat the H. pylori infection.

Everyone that I've encountered on the staff at RC is beyond helpful, and very professional.  They won't just prescribe you a medication and mask your symptoms. No, you have to put in the effort, with RC's guidance, to change personal behaviors, make better nutritional choices, and figure out how to make your individual body heal.

I am so looking forward to feeling better and better and believe I may finally, after many failed attempts,  be on the road to doing so. Thank you so much, RC!

Great chiropractor work! Dr. Jake knows his business and really cares and makes sure you not only feel great but that you increase your own understanding and control over your own physical health.  True to its name, Root Cause is very, very good about getting down to basic causes and addressing them well.  Super professional and upbeat staff.

I've had the pleasure of working Dr. Rick and several other physicians at Root Cause. I've had a significant medical issue for a few years that is close to being completely resolved. I can't thank Dr. Rick enough for his guidance and expertise.
