Dr. Lopez has developed a superior treatment that has rejuvenated my body and spirit. My energy level has improved, I feel healthier and happier. My anxiety and stress went down, I have a great sense of inner peace and I enjoy life much more. My friends keep asking me what I'm doing that I look younger. Seven of my friends are already under this treatment. Dr. Lopez keeps on the latest studies and his vast knowledge on health issues is fascinating. He spends a good amount of time with his patients and enjoys sharing any information with them. His supporting staff is warm and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Lopez to those people whose goal is to live life to the fullest. It is a blessing to have this excellent professional around us!!. Mirta Luque

I first went to Dr. Lopez because I was diagnosed with osteoporosis. The mainstream doctor I was seeing asked me to choose one of the current prescriptions medications being marketed for this. I was also told it was not reversible without them. Dr. Lopez has been a lifesaver and Godsend to me. Since he treats the whole body my overall health has improved in other areas as well. He also uses preventative medicine on many diseases such as diabetes and heart disease so hopefully I won't get sick in the first place. On my first DEXA scan after seeing Dr. Lopez, my bones were slightly better but had not gotten worse. On my last one, my bones had improved dramatically! I was so excited and happy. Dr. Lopez is so knowledgeable in all aspects of health including nutrition and the latest things out there, including threats to be aware of. I totally rely on him for my health needs and have complete trust and confidence in him. He treats the human body with respect (doesn't ply you with dangerous prescription medications) and puts you on treatments that are affordable and good not only your ailment but your whole body. I am so grateful to Dr. Lopez and happy I found him.

Pros: Wonderful doctor and staff

Cons: Difficult parking - I usually take public transportation

This a true partnership between dr and patient! An appointment is a real discussion with real answers where all possibilities are explored. He discovered handicapping maladies of mine the medical establishment NEVER would have found, and the remedies were relatively inexpensive and easy. Dr. Lopez is knowledgeable in all areas, more so than most specialists. And he doesn't whip out a presciption pad to quiet a patient with the latest dangerous "medicine" hyped by the pharmaceutical industry. Most remedies are natural and far more effective and safe than I ever imagined. However, it's tough to accept the inhumane treatment of MOST doctors after Dr. Lopez. This is how medicine SHOULD be, hopefully a model for future medical care.

I first went to Dr. Lopez to get 'cleaned' of my mercury build up. As a result of those initial screenings I then became aware of hormonal, vitamin, and mineral deficiencies. I'm therefore taking better care of myself. Dr. Lopez is articulate, compassionate, and 'cutting edge' when it comes to knowledge of the body, its inter-workings and how one might 'adjust' to better provide for one self. With him I feel that 'we' are on a path of enlightenment, opening and discovering, and then allowing me to take appropriate actions. Quick fix is not a part of his lexicon. Everything is done for 'the long haul'. I always get good explanations to my questions and particularly appreciate the depth that he goes to in explaining/interpreting the results of my periodic screenings. His staff is delightful, energized, engaging, and supporting.

I first visited Dr. Lopez three years ago because I wanted to optimize my health and, because I was in my late forties, I wanted to get a good hormone assessment and learn more about bio-identical hormone options for peri-menopause. (When I complained about some symptoms to my gynecologist, she threw a birth control prescription at me. Not helpful). Dr. Lopez's evaluations are very thorough; if you're used to an internist spending 60 seconds asking the most cursory questions about how you are, you'll be blown away by what it's like when a doctor asks a lot of questions and really listens to the answers. One of the best things about my "journey to wellness" is that is has, indeed, been a "journey", Dr. Lopez understands the practicalities of our daily lives and encourages making healthful changes in "baby steps" so that these changes can be sustained. For me, this has resulted in taking positive steps for my health that I have never abandoned. He is open-minded, keeps up on the latest studies, and totally gets the mind-body connection.

Pros: A doctor who listens and isn't beholden to big pharma

Cons: Doesn't accept insurance

Dr. Lopez and his staff are the most caring people I know of working in the medical field. I looked for a doctor that cared about how I felt and did not just say "Oh well you are a 50+ year old woman you know". Together Dr. Lopez and I worked on my out of balance issues and have solved them all. He is even suporting me loosing weight. He did not say "you are fat loose weight", he gave me ideas and possibilies to try and we found one that suited me. Now I am finally loosing quite easily. I think everyone should go see him. He treats my whole family and what a difference he has made!

Pros: Listens and heals

Cons: Ok so parking is icky-but not impossible

I was really interested in preventative cardiovascular health and was seeking alternatives to a life of taking pills. Dr. Lopez provided education and a better understanding of the alternatives available. During the screening process I found that I have a hormonal imbalance and was deficient in certain vitamins and minerals. I started treatment including supplements and a dietary plan. I feel great so far, with a good increase in energy and a new fond remembrance of what I used to feel like 20 years ago. What's really great is that he is my personal physician and treats me with respect, which I found sometimes lacking in my old health plan. I love the education and the vast amount of alternatives that are available to us "clients" through DR. Lopez's services.

Pros: Best Doctor ever, great flexability in treatments

Cons: Parking can be hard, take MUNI
