TESTIMONIALS
Saeid. You were the best Naturopathic Doctor that I have ever seen. I have seen four in my life in different locations but you were the best one for many reasons.
On June 12, 2014, I sustained a head injury at work. For the past three years, I have tried a number of different therapies to relieve my debilitating post-concussion symptoms. Since seeing Dr. Mushtagh, my ‘episodes’ have decreased in intensity, frequency, and duration as has my stuttering, fatigue, depression, anxiety, insomnia, and nerve pain. I no longer require the use of my walker, cane, or walking sticks. I highly recommend Dr. Saeid Mushtagh to anyone suffering from a concussion or Post-Concussion Syndrome. Thank you, Dr. Saeid for all that you have done towards my recovery!
I was under Saeid's care after suffering severe physical and mental side effects from cancer radiation treatment and the tragic death of my grandson. He brought me back to health and balance through his careful attention to the details impacting my life. In my case, he was a "Godsend." I have no hesitation recommending him. He is a man of compassion, incredible knowledge, wisdom, and integrity.
Nicest and the best naturopathic doctor I've seen over last 6 years of 15 ND's, MD's etc. Finds the underlining cause, very smart guy.
I have referred everyone I know to you. I was and am still so grateful for your care and thoughtfulness to me and everyone else I know that goes to you and that list is extensive. You’ve helped us all and we hold you in the very highest regard.
