Gordon Med Matrix Testimonial

two things. My age, turning 65 last year, and my weight. I was uh about 285 lbs uh last year and uh I wanted to work at least till I was 70. Yeah. Or as long as I could. And that's just that was a lot of weight to be carrying. Yeah. I didn't feel big, but I knew it was a lot of weight. Yeah. And I saw the ad on online. Okay. And it just made sense. I looked into it a little bit. Got to check this out. Mhm. So, you had a special on there where you received some money off and I uh called up, set up my first appointment, and a year later, I've lost 50 lbs. That's awesome. Yeah, it's great. Really great. I've gone off three prescription medications. Yeah. Uh no longer have high blood pressure. Wow. No longer have high cholesterol, knee pain, arthritis went away. Yeah. Coming here, taking the advice of Dr. O. Mhm. and getting away from a lot of uh processed food. Yeah. Incredible what what that can those changes can make. Yeah. It's pretty a pretty awesome. So, did you go to your normal doctor before this kind of trying to get help and what what uh I've been going to him for 40 yearsly and then monthly for minor things? Yeah. And uh he could never take care of my migraines. I've been on thyroid medication for 40 years. Yeah. He could never fix that. always felt weak and tired. Mhm. Uh that's one medication I'm still on, but instead of uh I guess pharmaceutical made, it's a natural. Yeah. Yeah. Which is much better for you. Mhm. Anything you can get natural is going to be better. Yeah. Sure. Um Yeah. My my doctor just um covered up symptoms. Mhm. So to speak, you know, where we're taking care of the uh issue. Yeah. Totally. And a lot of it's done through supplements. Yeah. which is crazy. I never knew that was possible. Yeah. That's pretty awesome. So 50 lbs, joints are hurting. You um like your job I is pretty very active. Like how has that changed things for you as far as like just your day-to-day life and not having to get a knee pad every time I get on my knees? I mean getting up and down being a carpenter and all that. Uh just uh more energy. Yeah. At the end of the day. Mhm. uh not tired all the time. That was my biggest complaint. I'm always tired. Yeah. I feel weak. Mhm. And it's uh life-changing. It's just incredible how seeing a doctor who cares and medicine that works. Yeah. That's awesome. What was um what was that first appointment like sitting down with kind of Dr. Rose and because I imagine it was a lot more testing than you've done in the past. Yeah, the uh the blood tests I never knew they could do. so many screenings of different things. It's just four or five vials and two sheets of just numbers of uh blood tests coming back. Very uh thorough. I like the idea of the testosterone, how they check uh not just one number but two or three different numbers. It's hard to explain, not being ready. Yeah. not to explain it, but um yeah, just the uh in so the initial test was and talking to Dr. Rose was just very exciting. I I could tell things exciting things were about to happen. Yeah. Just by the care I received here. I remember one day that uh I had called up and said I had some symptoms for something and they said, "Uh yeah, that sounds like something you should take care of urgently." Urgently and uh go to the emergency. Mhm. And I kind of waited and they called me again the same day saying, you know, I'm just letting you know that what you're called about sounds very important. I said, I'm thinking about it. I really don't want to go. And they did it one more time the day after. And I had never had a doctor call me at home. And tell me they were concerned about my issues. Yeah. And here it wasn't the doctor, but it was one of her nurses. Yeah. Who she instructed to. And I never I never saw care like that. someone who actually cared. Yeah. It's just it like if it wasn't anything else that would have sold me on this place and someone actually really cares about how you're feeling and doing. Yeah. Yeah. The team here is awesomely. I mean, everyone here is just so Yeah. cares about the patients and so kind. You treat it with respect like you're a man. It's like this is great. This is so nice. Yeah. Anything else you feel like would be kind of important for, you know, people who are thinking about kind of stepping into functional medicine or maybe they've gone to their normal doctor and they're just like they know they can feel I think that's a lot of patients. They go to their normal doctor and like I know I can feel better but their normal doctor isn't helping them out. Like what would kind of your advice be to them? If you're going to your regular doctor and uh he hasn't taken care of it in a few months, why are you going why are you still going there? You know, I mean, they might be giving you medications, but it's not usually for the issue. It's for covering up symptoms. Yeah. Where here you deal with the symptoms. Mhm. Yeah. It's totally different. Yeah, it is. Um um my health, my mood. So many people say to me, you seem like you've got so much energy. What happened? Yeah. And I say, med matrix. And they don't know what it is. And I try to explain to them. And um when I tell them my insurance doesn't cover it, they get a little iffy, but it's cheaper than going to your doctor every 3 months and not taking care of it. Sure. Yeah. So, you pay once or twice here and it's done. Yeah. Yeah. What's the value of your health, too, right? That's right. I mean, absolutely. I don't know the value of that. I've been coming over a year now, a year and a couple months. Mhm. And I spent a little bit, but it's nothing. Mhm. You know, I would have spent some at my other doctor. Yeah. And would have been on medication, which is a monthly cost. Yeah. And here I'm just supplements. Yeah. Yeah. Aro tossing.
