I met Richard this last summer at the Farmer’s Market. At the time I had been significantly depressed, on SSRI’s (anti-depressant medication), was battling hormonal changes, sleep deprivation and felt I was truly on the verge of a breakdown. Add to that I have 10 year old twins, one with special needs and at the time I just didn’t know how sick I was as I was just plodding along taking one day at a time. I feel it pertinent to add a bit about myself as it lends credence to my experience with Richard. I have been in nursing for over 20 years. I worked in ICU, CCU, Level 1 Trauma ER and Flight nursing. I believed I had an extensive understanding of how the body ages and slowly becomes ill. I learned I was missing a huge piece of the puzzle about life and health.

Physicians and nurses have a very minimal education in nutrition. We are trained how to take care of the already ill patient. People enter our world when their bodies are already train wrecks. I was intrigued by what he told me about the importance of nutrition as well as educating me on why we as a society do not understand how important nutrition is or how it has the power to give our bodies what they need to do their job. I decided to try it out and my world has completely changed. Richard is one of the most knowledgable individuals I have ever met. His passion for nutrition is infectious. He listens and does not judge. He walks his talk.

For me now it’s as if someone turned on a beam of light inside. I am off my SSRI’s. They say the “Eyes are the window to the soul”… I used to look at mine in the mirror and ponder how dull and weary they looked and yet I was only 51 years old. Not anymore… The world around me is brighter, full of promise and color. I have, with Richards expertise changed the course of my life. For those of you with depression or any other health issues I URGE you to take charge of your health. No one will do it for you. An ounce of prevention truly is worth a pound of cure. The best part is, family and friends and co-workers keep looking at me and asking me… “are you doing something different.. you just look great”… Oh yes I’m doing something different and it’s working. If you’re reading this, take the leap. You’ll be amazed at how different you’ll feel and be.

“I have worked with Rick extensively both for myself and in congunction with my patients. I had exhausted Western medicine with no improvement of my own symptoms, and was on the verge of having to stop some of the things I love most because of my pain. After a consultation with Rick and some labs, I had a correct diagnosis and was on my way to being healthier than I have ever been. His knowledge of disease processes and how they are intertwined with our diet and lifestyle never ceases to amaze me. There are few practitioners who care more, or put more into getting their patients well. Rick is passionate about his patients state of health which is evident from the 3-5 hour intitial consultation, to the hours I know he puts in on the side to research for his patients. I can’t say enough about what a positive experience it has been for me to work with Rick, and all the great changes I’ve made for both myself and my family.”

“I wish to express my family’s gratitude for assisting my niece. As you know, we were all very worried about her as she was quite ill for the past six months. She lost a significant amount of weight and was vomiting daily. Her doctors put her through a long battery of tests including an MRI—and all came up negative. Her doctors said it must be “nerves or IBS”, perhaps because she had a recent big change in her life as she joined a convent. However, my niece insisted that she was very happy at the convent so we were all confused.”

“Through your extensive research and additional–but much less invasive and less expensive testing–you obtained a positive diagnosis on her celiac/gluten/lactose/eggs sensitivities that totally blows away the previous diagnosis. We also appreciate your assistance in revamping her overall nutrition, which I know will be critical to her long-term health and well-being. So, in addition to eliminating her triggers she has made significant improvements in her diet and overall health.”

“I just spoke with my sister-in-law, who told me that she is “ecstatic” to finally have answers and a plan after all this time. My niece has not vomited in weeks, she’s feeling great, and is thrilled to be able to rejoin the convent and attend a much-anticipated retreat for new postulates before Christmas. Thank you so very much.”

My Best,

Susan

I started working with Rick Thomas after my second diagnosis with breast cancer in May of 2012. After the second diagnosis it became quite clear that my lifestyle would need to change for the long-haul. I was introduced to Rick through a mutual friend. Our first appointment lasted 4 hours and 15 pages of notes. I was very impressed. My background is as a practicing Chiropractor with a minor in nutrition. My first thought after this first meeting with Rick was “why didn’t I meet him after my first cancer?” Rick knows everything there is to know on preventing cancer and post-cancer nutrition. He is very, very dedicated to what he does. I believe if his teaching’s are integrated into every person’s health choices, cancer would be extinguished in our country.
