“I can’t say enough about the Holtorf Medical Group and the care I received here. From the start, the team created a program customized just for me, with a round table of doctors who reviewed my labs and mapped out a plan. The experience felt like I was finally being seen as a whole person, not just a list of symptoms. Dr. Scott Mortensen treated me with stem cell injections and set me up with peptides and meds to help me move toward real healing. Only a week in, and I’m already feeling relief in my neck and knee, which I haven’t felt in ages.But perhaps what I’m most grateful for is having hope again. If you’re looking for answers, I highly recommend the professionals at Holtorf Medical Group for truly compassionate, cutting edge care.”

I can’t say enough great things about Holtorf Medical. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel comfortable and welcomed. I’ve been dealing with shoulder, neck, and elbow pain for years, and I recently saw Dr. Mortensen for a PRP injection in my shoulder and elbow. He took the time to explain the process and the science behind it, which really put me at ease. The whole procedure took about 15 minutes and was completely painless. Thank you, Holtorf Medical Group, for such a positive experience!

Title: Exceptional Care and Compassion!I cannot express how grateful I am for the outstanding care provided by Dr. Evens and Kim at Holtorf medical group. Having consulted various doctors in the past without receiving concrete answers, Dr. Evens was a refreshing change.Dr. Evens went above and beyond to ensure a thorough examination, conducting all necessary tests to identify and understand my condition. Her commitment to finding answers and putting me on the right treatment plan has made a significant difference in my health.Furthermore, the support from Heather and Emily has been exceptional. The entire staff at this practice is remarkable—compassionate, attentive, and truly dedicated to patient well-being.In a world where finding quality healthcare can be challenging, I consider myself fortunate to have discovered Dr. Evens and her incredible team. Five stars are not enough to convey my appreciation for the outstanding care I've received. Thank you to the entire staff for making a positive impact on my health journey.

After being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, I sought out Holtorf for top-notch healthcare. If you're dealing with a thyroid issue, I highly recommend consulting a specialist who comprehensively understands the disorder and can effectively interpret your blood test results. Holtorf excels in this regard, possessing a deeper understanding of thyroid health compared to the average doctor. Personally, I'm under the care of Dr. Evans, a naturopath advocating a holistic approach blending both Eastern and Western styles. This involves medication, dietary adjustments, and supplements. Dr. Evans oversees my overall well-being, including hormone replacement care. Kim, Dr. Evans' manager, ensures everything operates seamlessly for me. I want to express gratitude to Eddie in the dispensary, who not only handles my prescriptions from Holtorf but also assists with the various Holtorf-branded supplements I rely on – a pleasure to work with.if you're seeking comprehensive care for both your mind and body, beyond just addressing symptoms or relying solely on a blood test, this is the ideal place for that kind of holistic treatment.

I had really bad experiences with two other Lyme literate doctors before I came here and Dr. Hunt literally saved me. Her calm demeanor is very therapeutic and she is always considerate of my budget when selecting treatments. She never makes me feel pressured to do anything I don’t want. She even called me, unprompted, when I got Covid to see how I was doing. Her medical assistant Cristina is also great. She is super fast at responding to emails and it’s always easy to get ahold of her for questions. I would recommend them to anyone with a tickborne illness.

Life savers.Literally. These people saved my life. I was below rock bottom when I finally found Holtorf Medical Group. I was nearly 4 years into my chronic illness journey, and 10+ doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. Within one visit, we pinpointed my issue and each and every week has seen tangible, considerable improvement since. Dr. Phillips and Dr. Laufer have been extraordinary healers, and I am getting my life back because of their protocol. Throughout this process, not only have I regained my physical strength, but my overall spiritual strength has been restored too. For the first time since getting sick, I truly believe that I will beat this into remission, deactivation, a cure, or whatever we want to call a symptom-free livelihood where I am in control of my body, not this nasty illness.The entire staff - from the administrative folks to the medical assistants to the nurses in the IV room to the folks in the pharmacy - is exceptional. I didn't know this level of medical care was possible. They are empathetic, patient, diligent, and cordial. In the most trying chapter of my life, the Holtorf Medical Group has given me hope, confidence, and a reason to believe. I could not be more grateful for the impact this practice has had on my life.

I've been a patient of Dr. Lisa Hunt for a few years before she relocated to the L.A. area and joined Holtorf Medical group. She is an outstanding physician. She helped me with some medical conditions unlike other doctors I've spoken with over the years, looking for resolution. I appreciate her comprehensive integrative and holistic philosophy and she is always welcoming and approachable. The excellent service I was accustomed to in her previous practice continued at Holtorf Medical Group. Everyone, from Eddie in the pharmacy to Cristina, Dr. Lisa's assistant, to Carly who I just met (along with others I have only spoken with briefly), has been professional, friendly, responsive and very helpful. In addition, I appreciate the informative articles on their website and the state-of-the-art research and treatments Holtorf Medical provides. I'm grateful that Dr. Lisa and the Holtorf Medical team supports my health journey.

I, like many I’ve met here, had previously found the many other options for care not sufficiently nuanced or diverse for my needs. Trying to treat myself through what was available to me as a layman got me a little further than traditional cate but it involved a lot of unhelpful rabbit trails and it was not always positive. At Holtorf, I found a physician community who are perceptive and diverse in the options available to us. Being both aware that medicine is full of unknowns but also keeping up numerous cutting edge options, they have given me much of what I need to take my health at my own pace safely and with choices. In the time I’ve been at Holtorf, my energy levels and cognition have improved dramatically. I have been able to work a demanding job once again, when at one time I felt little hope. I am really grateful for this group and the very knowledgeable community of patients I have met being there.

I’ve been going to HMG for several years, and I’m so thankful for the care both the doctors and staff provide. Dr. Evans always listens (which far too many doctors don’t do!) and empowers me to take an active role in my treatment. She thinks outside the box to figure out the best plan for my needs and goals and stays up-to-date on new studies and treatments. Kim Potter, Dr. Evans’ administrative assistant, is phenomenal as well. Kim always makes herself available via email and phone to answer my questions and/or pass them along to Dr. Evans: She goes above and beyond to help me. For example, I recently had a situation getting a medication covered by insurance, and she made several calls and filled out necessary forms until it finally got approved. Eduardo in the dispensary and Daniel in the IV room are also wonderful. I feel incredibly lucky to have such an amazing team: it makes all the difference in world.

Ozone was a big help to me in getting rid of my chronic Lyme & mold illness. It was one of the only therapies I did that would give me die off which I was so happy about because that showed progress & that it was working. To avoid die off just do less. The IV room is restful, here’s a photo of a bunch of health books in it.

She's personable and she cares about how you are feeling. The front staff are super helpful and so kind. Their pharmacy walks you through everything. There are no stupid questions.

She is amazing, and if you EVER have the opportunity to become one of her patients, you definitely will want to do so!!!

I truly believe finding Holtorf and going to them saved my life. I thought I was going crazy after seeing 8 different doctors who told me I was overweight because I didn’t exercise enough or eat properly. I was at that time, walking 5 miles 5 days a weeks, working out at a gym 5 days a week, counting everything that I put in my mouth and not eating more than1200 calories a day. I was told I was lying. 8 times. Holtorf took the time to check bloodwork and helped me get my life back I order. I’ve been with them so many years I’ve lost track. Still working on my weight but it’s much better than before.

Both my husband and I have benefited greatly from Holtorf Medical Group, more specifically, through the assistance of Dr. Lisa Hunt. I initially found her when searching for a solution for dealing with my Hashimoto's. Not only was I able to get my health back on track, I feel 100% better with more energy than I have prior to my diagnosis. I feel that Dr. Hunt really listened to me and allowed me to be an active part of my own care, which was important to me. As for my husband, she was able to diagnose him with chronic Lyme disease. He is still going through Ozone therapy, but his health has been steadily improving in the right direction. Without Dr. Hunt, I'm not sure that either of us would have been able to tip the scales on our health and made any meaningful gains towards better health.We are both grateful and appreciative that we have a clinic like this available to us. It has made all the difference in the world to our health and our family.

I followed Angel to this practice. She is absolutely brilliant. She discovered my Lyme Disease diagnosis. Instead of the traditional megadoses of antibiotics, we opted for ozone IV therapy. This preserved my gut health while attacking the bacteria in my body. I trusted her approach for treatment and am now in remission. No other medical practice offered this type of therapy as an alternative. I’m truly grateful to Angel for her knowledge and expertise. Many patients travel to this practice for their extensive knowledge of alternative medicine. Ozone IV therapy is extremely beneficial for your body.

I‘ve been hypothyroid for 15 years n been seeing doc Laufer at HNC most of that time. He has become my primary care physician in a sense as I just havent found another doc who looks at the whole spectrum of challenges I face with lyme, allergies etc. With him I feel like part of a team, I can suggest tests n meds/supplements n he can give me advice on that and prescribe them if he deems them fitting. I highly recommend HMC:)

Hey💚😊!! My experience began in the Torrance office 🤗.. I was a very complex case, and was trying to raise our family, I didn't do well with the drive so I wasn't very consistent with treatment and I was on several narcotics prescribed by pain management in my area masking what was really the root cause of my problem. I'm off all of them now!🙏🏻.. I am so grateful for the El Segundo office🤗.. I went to school there so when they moved into the new office, I was retested for everything and I have the pleasure of Dr. Moses Laufer, and his vast knowledge and continuing research on treatments of getting to the root cause of my personal journey with chronic Lyme and several co infections.. He's very caring and will do everything possible to help his patients😊 like me.. I do struggle with my disease and I appreciate all of the staff ~ especially Emily💕..she works directly with Dr. Laufer, is very sweet as well as quick to respond to emails from my husband for any questions or concerns😊💚.. that's a very rare quality in a medical group and much appreciated!! Thank you for your patience, support and understanding when I need a little help!! I'm very happy to be a part of the Holtorf Medical group family🤗..Now let's talk about treatment in the infusion room😊..wow!! It's awesome!! I'm usually there all day and Daniel is one of the best at putting in an IV, making sure patients are completely comfortable and they have juice, water and snacks for you!!I have never once had a bruise from an IV by him😎💚😊..the Dr's and staff come in and get IV treatments as well!! They believe in how they are treating their own patients so they practice what they teach!! My favorite infusion is a 10 pass of ozone.. I also love the high dose vitamin C and super immune boosting vitamins and minerals😊!!Another incredible benefit from them are Holtraceuticals! They are supplements we use for our entire family!! I don't use any other supplements and they are excellent with helping out with ordering and it's also online💚.. my family orders never stop because they work synergistically with other immune modulators prescribed byDr. Laufer for me and keeps my family healthy!! Thank you guys!! Then they have an amazing compounding pharmacy on site for patients as well and they do everything possible to help you with orders from Drs there as well as calling in for refills promptly and efficiently😊🤗!! Thank you💚There is so much more I could say about Holtorf Medical Group and the staff🤗💚🙏🏻.. They have an excellent facility, caring staff and I absolutely love Dr. Laufer..he's my favorite of course and he really wants to see positive results.. you have to do the work though!! Being consistent is what I learned to be most effective in my journey as it continues.. I'm thankful for getting back to the root cause with Dr. Laufer and he studies labs intently before appointments because blood work doesn't lie..😊 and he treats me accordingly. I have complete faith in their way of getting to the root cause.. everyone has a different healing journey and they will definitely be there to help you through .. Thank you guys so much!!😊See you all soon!!Much Love💚.Joanna Lynn Etter

I can't say enough good about this place. I see Dr Bullington in Atlanta. I struggled for about 9 years before going to her and was misdiagnosed previously. Luckily she got me in the best health I have been in probably 20 years. That lead me to a pregnancy and being a mom was a dream come true. She listens to me and how i feel. That is not true of many doctors in the traditional system.

I love the Holtorf clinic. They care about their patients and go above and beyond to look for and treat root cause. They don't just give you a medication (or supplement) and tell you to deal with it for the rest of your life. The goal is always to get the patient to optimum health. It's health care, not sick care. Highly recommend.

I've seen Holtorf Medical Group since the age of 21. I'm now 37 and still utilize their help today. In a 16 year period I've seen many of their doctors and they're always on point in their own unique & very present way.They've saved me a world of pain (pun intended) for almost 2 decades in ways that one's primary can't always fix without often additive or harmful medications or approaches as the only solution.Thank God, for places like this that have sound, alternative, advanced & safe options of healing or dealing in pain, fatigue and energy. (My issues). Fact is, I seriously don't know what I would have done without them in all this time.Their staff and doctors are always above and beyond and the treatments are always not only awesome alternatives but of the modern standard that work much better & are healthier approaches.Holtorf is definitely worth it. It's beyond a struggle to deal in physical situations that often strip our lives away as far as our true ability to shine 100% capability from due to our unique ailments. I seriously suggest checking Holtorf out and trust me I'm a tough critic when it comes to successful treatment in this department.In the end, they're my #1 go to for 16 years and I have many go to's similar but simply not close to their staff, reputation, treatment options & serious care & desire for back to well-being over money believe it or not. ☆☆☆☆☆

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Evan’s for almost a year. If your hormones are out of whack, she can help stabilize them. She is incredibly thorough and is careful to make sure your blood panels reflect proper balance when starting bioidentical HRT.This is not a pellet injection place where you are stuck on a dosage with fingers crossed the right combo was prescribed. A baseline is established and medication added and tweaked until you reach optimal levels.Gone are the nightly hot flashes and I feel great.The office is friendly (special shout out to Kim!) and there is a convenient compounding pharmacy on site.In addition to HRT, they have all sorts of holistic offerings including b12 shots, ozone therapy and aesthetic procedures. My husband has an uncomfortable bone spur and I plan on getting him in for non-invasive prolotherapy.I’m very pleased with my ongoing treatments and 100% recommend.

I love this practice. They possibly saved my life. Dr. Evans helped me manage my thyroid properly for the first time in my adult life, and that alone would have been a game changer! But then she went on to properly diagnose a fungal sinus infection that had been mystifying doctors for 10 YEARS! The fungus had filled my entire left sinus and was trying to make its way to my brain. And finally after 10 years of misdiagnosis and medical gaslighting, someone finally listened to me and was able to help. Dr. Evans was right about everything - she encouraged me to get a new ENT & advocate for imaging, which I did. As soon as we got a CT scan, my new ENT confirmed Dr. Evans. Yep, fungal ball in my sinus. After surgery with the ENT and a detox protocol at Holtorf, I’d say I’m 95% better. I’m better than I ever THOUGHT I could be. If you have a mystery or chronic illness and need a “Dr. House” level approach to figuring it out, Holtorf Medical Group is your best move. Now my boyfriend and I both go there, and we are healthier than we could have imagined. I’m GRATEFUL! 🙏🏼

I have so much I could say! I had been struggling with hypothyroidism for a couple years in and out of hospitals endless doctors who kept telling me my thyroid is fine. I've been sent to eye doctors, Kaisers endocrinologists, neurologists.... You name it I've had brain scans, cat scans, MRI's, endless bloodwork just to leave with a referral to psychiatry and a prescription for vertigo. i was at a point where I felt completely disabled and had no hope left. a friend told me about Holtorf and my husband agreed it was time to try something new. I was blessed with Dr. Laufer and his amazing liaison Emily! My first appointment Dr. Laufer asked me a million questions and gave me soooo much information I had no idea about. He spent an hour with me and made sure I left with hope. He did more bloodwork than I even knew existed. He knew I had hypothyroidism but tested me for everything from Lyme disease to mold exposure!! He finally got me on the right medications and continues to monitor me regularly. Our appointments are never rushed and Dr. Laufer cares! He even remembers what I tell him and asks about my moms cancer and my kids. I have questions all the time and Emily emails me back always the same day. We have actually become great friends because she has been there for me emotionally through the hardest time in my life. She has Hashimotos which makes it even better because she gets it! Everything I tell her she is compassionate and caring and never makes me feel like I'm not important! I will forever be a Holtorf patient!!!

Seven years ago I had prolotherapy for both ankles, both wrists, knees, lower back, and shoulders. Prolotherapy injects dextrose and/or PRP (platelet-rich plasma) into joints to repair. Professional athletes have used this practice for many years. The typical recommendation is 4 treatments. I had 10 treatments because the success was incredible. For the first time in years, I felt great and was pain-free.Recently, the pain returned and I was seeking more treatments. Holtorf Medical Group offered Prolozone therapy, which is the same type of treatment but injects ozone instead of PRP. Within the first treatment, I was relieved from pain before I even left the doctor’s office. I cannot express enough how highly I recommend Prolozone. It was a miracle! If you’re experiencing joint or arthritis pain, I suggest Prolozone and hope it helps you as much as it helped me.

This place has changed my life! Dr. Lisa Hunt has been amazing! I struggled with chronic fatigue and hormonal issues to name a few things. After multiple appointments with my primary care and OB (both of which said I was tired because I have 4 kids and should take a vacation) I was recommended by a friend to Dr. Lisa. She was so attentive as I described my symptoms and never made me feel insignificant or dumb. She ran every test possible, it felt (none of which my other drs would do) and found I had a thyroid issue, low iron and vitamin D, low cortisol, a few other things along with 4 respiratory infections, all which cause fatigue!! I've been taking multiple supplements for 5 months now and feel amazing!!! My energy is back, my hormonal swings are good, cravings are better and I feel like the old me. I so appreciate how available Dr. Lisa and the staff are whenever I have a question! My appointments are over the phone because we live a few hours away but that hasn't compromised my level of care. I cant say enough great things about Dr. Lisa and Holtorf Medical Group. It's been expensive but you can't put a price on your health and I feel GREAT!!

New to the area, it was time to set up our new family doctor. This place had decent reviews and seemed professional, so I decided to go ahead and give it a try. The doctor I met with was very intelligible. We did a basic yearly exam. During and after the exam she was very patient and answered all of my questions. This is a very important attribute since I ask over the average amount of questions and usually talk a little more than I should. All in all, I found my new long term doctor and am very satisfied. I would recommend to anyone looking.

Symptoms of low iodine-induced thyroid dysfunction include fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, constipation, infertility, water retention, cold extremities, thyroid nodules, cold sensitivity, and depression. Inadequate iodine reduces progesterone in the ovaries, leading to PMS, irregular periods, swollen breasts, anxiety, insomnia, and heavy periods. Moreover:

  • Iodine is essential for immune function, weakening it with deficiency.
  • Proper fetal brain development relies on iodine; low maternal levels are linked to ADHD and lower IQ.

Thyroflex

Thyroflex Thyroid Testing

  • Innovative Device: The Thyroflex is a medical device designed to assess thyroid function using reflex speed.
  • Testing Process: It involves tapping the brachioradialis tendon on the forearm with a spring-loaded reflex hammer.
  • Motion Sensor: A motion sensor below the knuckles measures the speed of the hand’s upward and downward motion.
  • Computer Analysis: Data from multiple trials are analyzed by a computer program to determine thyroid function.
  • Developers: Created by Dr. Daryl Turner, PhD, and Dr. Konrad Kail, ND to address the need for more accurate thyroid diagnostics.
  • Enhanced Specificity: Offers higher specificity compared to traditional blood tests (TSH, T3, and T4).
  • Reliability: The Thyroflex is estimated to be 98% accurate.
  • Patient Experience: The test involves tapping on the forearm, causing brief and temporary discomfort.
  • Diagnostic Integration: Physicians use Thyroflex results alongside lab tests and reported symptoms to guide treatment decisions and monitoring.

Basal Metabolic Rate

Basal Metabolic Rate Test

  • Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): BMR, or basal metabolic rate, signifies the calories your body consumes during 24 hours of complete rest.
  • Understanding BMR: Imagine lying in bed all day; your BMR is the calories you’d burn in that scenario, accounting for approximately 75% of your daily energy needs.
  • Additional Factors: Daily activity and exercise make up the remaining 25%, and this varies based on your lifestyle.
  • BMR Testing: BMR is measured using an indirect calorimeter system, known for its accuracy and reliability.
  • The Test Process: During the test, you breathe into a mouthpiece connected to a handheld machine for 7 minutes.
  • Precise Measurement: The system calculates metabolic rate by analyzing oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production.
  • Comfort Consideration: A small plastic clamp fully seals your nose to capture all gas exchange, causing minor saliva accumulation and slight discomfort.
  • Test Duration: The entire test lasts only 7 minutes, during which you should remain still and breathe normally.

Red Light Therapy

Red Light Therapy is a non-invasive therapeutic technique that utilizes low-level red and near-infrared light to provide various health and cosmetic benefits. Here are some key advantages:

Skin Rejuvenation: Red light therapy stimulates collagen production, reduces wrinkles, and improves skin tone and texture, promoting a more youthful appearance.

Pain Relief: It’s effective in reducing pain and inflammation, making it beneficial for individuals with arthritis, muscle soreness, or joint discomfort.

Wound Healing: Red light therapy accelerates wound healing by enhancing circulation and tissue repair processes.

Hair Growth: It can stimulate hair follicles, leading to increased hair growth in individuals with thinning or receding hairlines.

Improved Sleep: By regulating the body’s circadian rhythms, red light therapy can help enhance sleep quality and combat sleep disorders.

Muscle Recovery: Athletes often use it to speed up muscle recovery after strenuous workouts and reduce muscle fatigue.

Minimal Side Effects: Red light therapy is non-invasive, painless, and generally safe with few side effects, such as mild skin redness.

Versatile: It can be used in various forms, including standalone devices, LED masks, or as part of larger treatments.
