Dr. Sommer White explains what your first visit to Vitality Medical Wellness Center will be like.

I was struggling with hormonal and emotional fluctuations. I’m a yoga teacher in very good shape, and I eat well. I couldn’t figure out what was wrong! My cycle and moods were all over the place! Dr. Sommer White examined my diet, environment, and emotional well-being. Dr. White gave me the tools to get my body back in order and feel as though I’m in control again. My cycle comes on time every month, and my moods are more stable. Thanks Dr. White for helping me find a natural way to heal my body and to feel really great again!

My 9 year-old was diagnosed with ADHD and ASD in the summer of 2015. My husband and I were interested in a holistic approach without using medications. Dr. White looked at my child’s environment and how he was nourishing his body. She saw things in his diet that were contributing to his condition that I couldn’t see. We implemented the dietary recommendations, and did specialized testing which allowed us to tailor his supplements. After working with Dr. White for over a year, my son is a completely different child. He is much calmer and kinder. He notices things around him whereas before he was very self-absorbed. He has friends at school and is able to maintain those friendships because he’s not as impulsive as he once was. I fully attribute the speed of his progress to the way he eats and the changes that were implemented based on Dr. White’s recommendations. She knows the ins and outs of medicine as well as how diet contributes to overall health. Words can't fully express my gratitude for Dr. White and her practice.

After living with Crohn’s Disease for 20 years, I had accepted that my health and well being “status quo” was feeling fair to not great. Since my diagnosis in 1997, I have taken medications for the illness and in the last few years I started taking immunosuppressant medications. With the support of Dr. Sommer White, I have successfully been able to stop taking those immunosuppressant medications and start to heal my body with supplements and food.  Under the care of Dr. White, I feel better than I have in decades. It has truly been a gift to work with a provider who is teaching me how to heal my body and use food as medicine. I highly recommend Dr. White’s services.

Being an educator carries a significant amount of stress, but when I went back to grad school and agreed to write a book series under an aggressive deadline, I pushed my body to its breaking point. I saw a whole platoon of doctors who looked at my labs and told me I was fine. But I wasn’t fine. I couldn’t sleep and exercise didn’t relieve the stress, it just made me tired. Dr. White sat with me for almost two hours and after a battery of tests managed to determine what no one else had; I had stage three adrenal fatigue. Her regimen of eating and lifestyle changes transformed me, and within four months I felt better than I had in decades. For people like me who are in high-stress jobs, I can’t recommend Dr. White enough. You don’t have to be tired and exhausted all the time. That doesn’t have to be your 'new normal.' I can’t express how much better I feel and how grateful I am for Dr. White and her practice.

Finding Dr. White has been life-changing for me. I haven’t felt this good in years! I had been experiencing joint pains and was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. I was taking high doses of medications to suppress my immune system. Even with the medication, I still had a lot of pain in my shoulder and limited range of motion so much so that I was tearing jackets trying to get them on. I honestly wondered at my age (41) if I would ever feel any better. Dr. White diagnosed me with Lyme disease. She changed my diet, added supplements, and treated the Lyme. 7 months later I finally feel back to my normal self. I am off medications, have no pain and have full range of motion in my shoulder. I have so much gratitude to her for guiding me back to a healthy version of myself.
