Patient Testimonials

AdventHealth Diabetes Institute patient Amanda Velez.

Arianna Velez

“Without this program incorporating the whole body and including an endocrinologist, no one would have ever thought to check my insulin levels and seen that they were four times what they normally are. I was insulin resistant, and that’s why I was having so much trouble losing weight. I realized I wasn’t a failure.”
