Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn’s/Ulcerative Colitis) Reversed

Matthew came to the Goldberg Tener Clinic from Chicago with medical diagnoses of Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. He had previously been treated medically with Enbrel, Remicaide and Prednisone as per his Gastroenterologist. At the Goldberg Tener Clinic, a comprehensive workup was performed and key underlying factors were identified. Based on the data collected, an individualized program was developed for Matthew to follow. After 3 months, he is drug free and reports a 70% improvement in his symptoms.

Letter from Matthew one year later:

August 2014

Hi Dr. Tener,

It has been such a long time since I’ve updated you on how I am doing. I guess the reason I haven’t been in touch with you sooner is that I haven’t needed to! This summer I was working in Santa Barbara and had a great time. 

I had also mentioned to you a while back that I was hoping to get a job at Juilliard in NYC. I did end up getting that job and just moved here two weeks ago. I can honestly say that one of the biggest contributing factors to me getting better was working. When I am busy is when I seem to do best. 

Thank you so much for the tools that you and Dr. Goldberg gave me. Now that I am getting settled I can cook for myself now much more and hope to continue to make progress. I finally feel like I have some control over my health and life. It’s almost hard to remember how just one year ago I wasn’t even able to leave my house.

Hope you are well! 

Matt
