“I can't describe how truly grate...”
I can't describe how truly grateful I am to have found a provider like Dr. Brandler. His gut-brain coaching class has really set the tone for our doctor-patient relationship, one in which I 100% trust that he deeply cares that I understand what is going on with my body and how treatment protocols for complex chronic illness work so that I can manage my expectations, reduce anxiety and overwhelm, and most importantly: manage my illnesses and get better! He also very much listens. After three years of seeing multiple providers who dismissed my symptoms as little more than hormones, anxiety, and dietary choices, Dr. Brandler was the first provider to take seriously my wide range of symptoms and was able to provide a diagnosis and treatment that has FINALLY offered me tremendous relief. Beyond being an excellent doctor and skilled communicator, he has also cleverly implemented effective workarounds for all the ways in which the medical system constrains our doctors, from reduced time with patients to communication barriers between colleague providers in different areas of medicine and medical systems. His pre and post visit documents and questionnaires, the gut-brian coaching class, the regular communication among the team of interdisciplinary providers he's assembled, and his staff's timely communication has been incredible to experience. Thank you!!!!
