- Linda
I have been a patient of Angie's for over three years, and I have no idea how I would possibly manage my health care without her. She has treated my spinal abnormalities and pain very effectively and I am now taking no pain medications and I have increased mobility. I also have a host of autoimmune diseases which we are now working to rectify using nutritional response testing and supplements.
