The summer of 2024, my husband and I were at the end of our rope with our 12 year old son's medical condition. For over a year, he had been experiencing severe stomach pain, was losing weight because he wouldn't eat, was extremely moody because he felt awful 99% of the time, and school which he once loved become a struggle. This pain was interfering with things he loved like sports and family/friend relationships. We had completed blood tests, allergy tests, had multiple hospital visits, x-rays, stool samples, and so much more. In June 2024, his pediatrician told us that he needed to seek counseling from a licensed professional because they couldn't find anything and thought this was mostly stemming from anxiety. While we acknowledged some of this was causing anxiety, we were certain there was more to it. After researching at home day after day, I came across Dr. Swanz and reached out. He quickly responded, we talked on the phone, and I scheduled the appt for an in-person visit. To make a very long story shorter, our son is back to himself. The pain is gone! Dr. Swanz spent a lot of time with him asking questions, listened to him, provided detailed plans and steps to follow in the upcoming weeks, and before we knew it, our son was getting better. Dr. Swanz is incredible- he's very knowledgeable and an expert in his field; he's kind and spent a LOT of time with us, we never felt rushed or like a waste of his time; he was compassionate and our son felt comfortable talking with him; and above all, he was determined to give us a solution to get our son's quality of life back! We are so incredibly thankful to Dr. Swanz for his treatment. I am forever grateful and truly thankful I found Vital Force Naturopathy when I did.
