Atlas Health Method - Corte Madera, CA

After an extremely long health journey that involved so many doctors and five years of my life, I am content because I have a doctor that I trust and have full faith in. When I met Dr. Joe, his approach was different. It was evident from the moment we met that he truly cared. Dr. Joe worked tirelessly and never gave up until he finally found the root cause of my issues. Once we understood my health challenges, Dr. Joe developed a plan to guide me back to optimal health. During the process of testing, reviewing lab results, and evaluating various treatments, Dr. Joe made sure my mental health and stress levels were managed properly. He gave me meditations and pep talks and was a true supporter throughout the entire process. When I was healthy enough to exercise again, he evaluated my exercise routines to ensure that I was exercising optimally for my condition. As I became healthier, he checked in on me and has always been available when I needed him. I know this statement is very bold, but I can honestly say, Dr. Joe saved my life. It feels wonderful to know I am in good hands and that I truly trust my doctor.

Dr Joe is a brilliant practitioner and passionate about helping people improve their health. He has helped my parents and myself tremendously over the past few years, addressing a variety of serious health issues. He seems to be an expert on everything, from the gut, to the brain, hormones, the immune system and more. His vast knowledge and deep care are so rare in this field and greatly appreciated. So thankful to have him on my side in my journey to optimal health!

I have been working with Dr. Joe for over a year and he has helped me achieve many of the goals that I had for my health. I was in a very dark place when I started working with him, consumed by frustrating symptoms and unable to find answers. He gently and brilliantly helped me find many of the answers within myself while guiding me through labs and testing to help us find more answers. He truly listens to peoples stories and is able to clearly understand how their life experience has contributed to their health issues. Dr Joe is truly passionate about finding the root cause of an issue! He is incredibly intelligent but also intuitive and wise. I feel so deeply grateful for the opportunity to partner with him on my wellness journey. His staff is also wonderful, Nancy is kind, patient and responds super quickly with updates and guidance. I highly recommend Atlas Health!!

I have worked with Dr. Joe for about 5 months now. I've waited this long to put up some "reviews" since health journeys are long (mine included) and I didn't want to make any major statements until I had a good sample size of facts. Anyway, I've decided the facts are overwhelmingly in and here's my major statement: Dr. Joe has truly changed my life for the positive and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone.

I found Dr. Joe through an incredible Youtube lecture he gave on "food sensitivity" and after gathering my courage, reached out to see if he was interested in treating me (my issues revolve around allergy, digestion, blood sugar, terrible energy, Eosinophilic Esophagitis, ect). He was and we began our work (which I'm still in the thick of today). As I do not live in San Francisco, we initially skyped and I was so impressed and excited that he actually listened to my health-story (something sadly many health care practitioners don't do). From my symptoms described and a written questionnaire, he ordered a series of tests he was interested in seeing the results of, which I proceeded to do (mostly blood work, some stool). When these results were in, we once again met online and he gave me his ideas and prescriptions (diet, supplements, lifestyle, ect.) which I've been following since and we tweak when needed. Eventually I went up to SF to see Dr. Joe and did a 4-day intensive which was also fascinating and productive. Now we are in weekly contact, we still do tests and tweak my lifestyle, but my symptoms and outlook are miles and miles improved since I started 5 months ago. I feel safe with Dr. Joe. I trust him completely and feel like he really knows me medically, something which is rare and I'm so grateful for.

Dr. Joe is worth every penny, a true, powerful science-based holistic approach to healthcare. He is an incredibly smart and kind person and I am truly honored that I get to work with him. It hasn't been an easy process, but change never is - it is not an exaggeration when I say every aspect of my life has improved under his tutelage. I don't have to feel as bad as I once did. Life doesn't have to be that way. Dr. Joe has empowered me through my health. I am truly, truly grateful. If you are struggling with a health issue that seems too complex to manage (and maybe other Doctors are not listening), I sincerely urge you to give Dr. J a call and see what he has up his sleeve.

I have struggled for years to discover the root cause of my ill health. Dr Joseph Smith took the time to listen to my history and ordered bloodwork. He immediately offered a comprehensive plan. Very quickly upon following the plan I saw an improvement in my health. My sensitivity to gluten and gut issues lead to autoimmune diseases that if not for Dr Joseph Smith would have decimated my future. Chronic migraines, joint inflammation, brain fog, chronic allergies and fatigue seemed to control my life. I now experience a full life. Hiking a few times a week. No more migraine, or joint swelling and my sessional allergies are unnoticeable. Dr Joe is my hero!

Dr Joe helped me when many other doctors did not put much effort to fixing the problem. Having multiple digestive issues, he took the time to figure out what the cause of each issue was and setup a course of treatment to solve them. All off which ended up being a few lifestyle changes (diet primarily), supplements, and basic exercises to heal my upper stomach and other issues. It has been 4+ years since going through this process with them.
I highly recommend Dr. Joe and Atlas Health to anyone looking for an amazing progressive natural healthcare provider, to really do what takes to make them feel better. Thank you again.

I was in pain, needed my back popped. Joseph Smith's office won't take voicemail, asks you to send email. Which I did, asking for soonest apt available. No response for 3 business days plus weekend, but offers a slot for the following morning. I respond that I will take it. I show up 25 minutes early to fill out forms as I don't have a printer (they ask you to download and fill out forms from website). They don't have a working printer either, or forms to be filled in, tell me without any sense of irony they are a 'paperless' office. And they don't have me down for appointed time (never saw my response email). Finally they figure out an ipad for me to fill forms, but warn me the 'doctor' may only do consult and not adjustment on first visit. By the time I'm done I've been waiting 50 minutes, and they tell me the 'doctor,' can't see me after all today. Waste of over two hours of my time getting there and home, but probably saved some cash by not staying for snake oil scam. Not recommended ('Dr' Joe Smith, chiropractor).
