Loretta Mears, ND

I am immensely grateful for having found Loretta as my holistic doctor a year ago. I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease 7 years ago. I suffered a lot since then and saw many different doctors both allopathic and alternative. Very few helped a little. But ultimately it is my work with Loretta that helped me find my health again without any medication.
I find Loretta a powerful healer. She is very down to earth, direct, very intuitive and has a great sense of humor which for me is a must to bring some lightness to our human suffering. She has enormous knowledge, is very smart and yet it all feels simple at the same time.
in addition to all that and more, what I truly appreciate is the fact that she is also a bodyworker. (She was a licensed chiropractor when she lived in New York). I find it essential for me to have both naturopathic, nutritional, emotional guidance coupled with receiving an effective bodywork treatment at every session.
I highly recommend Doctor Loretta Mears as a truly gifted healer. I will keep her as my doctor for the rest of my life.

Loretta was my chiropractor when she worked in New York and I cannot recommend her highly enough. To just say she was a chiropractor is actually too limiting. She made significant and curative adjustments not just to my body but to my diet and my mental state. It’s amazing how finely attuned she is to what needs to be done to restore balance both physically and emotionally. Plus she’s got a great sense of humor which, while it doesn’t make everything she does to you fun, does give you wiggle room to laugh (another restorative feature of her ministrations).
To say that I miss her since she’s gone off to the Bay Area is another understatement. Her departure is absolutely NYC’s loss and California’s gain. I do, however, keep in touch with her as her knowledge and care is invaluable. Recently I’ve talked with her about a two-​month long medical matter that the various doctors I’ve consulted weirdly couldn’t seem to handle. In one phone conversation, Loretta recommended an herbal poultice that had positive effects within a week. She is a healer in all the best senses of the word and believe me, as a skeptic, healer is not a word I tend to use.

Dr. Mears is awesome. I don’t think I would still be walking without the work she’s done on my knees and bad foot. She intuitively knows where to find my other aches and pains, besides the stuff I ask her to fix. I’ve been following her nutritional and herbal recommendations for a while now and can hardly believe the difference all this has made. The depth of her knowledge of traditional western medicine as well as wholistic approaches blows me away. i would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone with any physical issues that need attention. As a matter of fact, she’s even helped me with some emotional stuff that has come up while being worked on. She’s amazing. Five stars without hesitation!

Dr. Loretta Mears is an amazing healer! She has helped me tremendously. She is sensitive, adept and attentive. Her hands seem to just know what to do. She has thorough knowledge of the body, it’s nutritional needs and she attends to the intersection of the physical and psychological. Can’t miss with Loretta!!!

Dr. Loretta Mears is a very talented healer. She is a body worker and has a lot of training in naturopathic medicine including nutrition. She is very thorough and skilled practitioner. I have seen her for back and other issues and her treatment has been very helpful. Highly recommended.
