"I can­not say enough won­der­ful things about Dr. Bossio! She has been such a gift to me and has changed my life. When I went into menopause at the age of 40, Dr. Bossio was there by my side – sup­port­ing me both med­ically and emo­tion­ally. She took the time to con­sider every detail of my con­di­tion and cre­ated a nat­ural and effec­tive approach to man­ag­ing my symp­toms. Dr. Bossio care­fully learns all about you – what your body is strug­gling with and what it needs for bal­ance and health. She also shares with her patients a resource of other pro­fes­sion­als who enhance holis­tic health care. Dr. Bossio is invested in my phys­i­cal and emo­tional health and peri­od­i­cally reviews my sup­ple­ment plan to make sure it is meet­ing my needs. At a time in my life when I had very lit­tle emo­tional sup­port, it brought me great com­fort to know through diag­nos­tic test­ing the sta­tus of my phys­i­cal health, and that my health care provider does every­thing to ensure that I am as healthy as I can be. She is fabulous!"

"I am a recent patient of Dr. Bossios’s in the last few years. I am a 49 year old male. I have gone to “tra­di­tional’ doc­tors all my life and have got­ten no clear answers and given no pre­ven­ta­tive ideas or help. I came once again to Dr. Bossio in early June 2012 after my PCMD sent me for a blood test which I have not had in sev­eral years. The test showed that my cho­les­terol and triglyc­eride lev­els were very high ( my total cho­les­terol was 305 and my Triglyc­erides were 354). Both of my par­ents died from heart/stroke ill­nesses. My PCMD wanted to put me on Lip­i­tor and I asked him while he was writ­ing out the pre­scrip­tion to give me some time to try on my own to bring the num­bers down. He agreed to three months.

I set up an appoint­ment with Dr. Bossio a few days later. She rec­om­mended that I start walk­ing a min­i­mum of three days per week up to five to six days a week at 30 min­utes min­i­mum a day with some speed work added in . She also rec­om­mended I stop all sug­ars, white breads, cheeses, red meats and fatty foods, I was also using creamora — a good amount-every day in my coffee-hydrogenated creamer and stopped that. I stopped all cakes, pies, cook­ies and candy and any­thing that con­tained high fruc­tose corn syrup. She had me add in oat­meal, more fiber, gar­lic and green tea. Dr. Bossio also put me on a few supplements.

It was hard at first, but the poten­tial out­come with­out these changes was unac­cept­able to me. After a few weeks I got to the point where it was fun to walk and the changes in foods did not bother me. Dr. Bossio had given me many alter­na­tives to the old sweets I enjoyed. I cheated a cou­ple of times. But I noticed that I didn’t like how sweet and chem­i­cal like these items tasted. Also, I didn’t like the way I was feeling-lethargic etc; after I ate these old foods again. Also, I was not binge eat­ing any­more like I had done with sweets in the past.

Any­way, in early Sep­tem­ber I went back to my PCMD and my test num­bers dropped sig­nif­i­cantly. While on Dr. Bossio’s pro­gram my total cho­les­terol went from 305 to 136. My triglyc­erides went from 354 to 88. There would be no way I could have done this through my PCMD or on my own. I truly thank Dr. Bossio and look for­ward to con­tin­u­ing to work with her to remain healthy"

"I have been work­ing with Dr. Deb Bossio for over two years and find her to be extremely approach­able, a good lis­tener, and will­ing to dis­cuss dif­fer­ent options for treat­ment.  I have taken my son to see her as well, and was pleased with her rec­om­men­da­tions.  I trust her judg­ment so much that I still work with her via phone, even though I have moved out of state."
