Testimonial 1: PMS and Irregular Menses
Dr. Lalezar has changed my life. Before I became her patient, I consulted with several doctors, but to no avail. All my blood work was normal. But my symptoms could not be cured. I had an irregular period. I was moody and unenergetic. After being treated by Dr. Lalezar, all of that changed. My menstrual cycle is regular. I am more energetic and I have a much better relationship with my husband since I don't have mood swings anymore.
Thanks Dr. Lalezar! R. Shemtoub
Testimonial 2: Fatigue
She literally has changed my life both psychologically and physically. Her advice along with her treatments works so well that I have a totally different life now. The areas that have improved significantly are my general health and vitality. I used to feel very tired and was suffering from fatigue most of the time. Now I feel energetic, motivated and vivacious. Being a physician makes her holistic knowledge reliable and gives a very effective direction to the treatment. She is very patient to listen to you and very sharp in her diagnoses and lucid in communicating the problem. She makes sure that you understand what is causing the problem and what the options are and what the most appropriate treatment is. Every time that I visit her, I have a wonderful time. Every single conversation of ours has made a dramatic improvement in my life! Thank you so much Dr Shiva and god bless you.

Testimonial 4: Hypertension, Diabetes, High Cholesterol, Prostate Cancer
Health treatment the right way
I met Dr. Lalezar in 2005 after being diagnosed with very high blood pressure 190/110, cholesterol and triglyceride, diabetes along with other things. I went to Dr. lalezar because I was not feeling well and did not want to take drugs. Dr. Lalezar was so attentive that on the way home I keep thinking about her. Then I realized that I never had a doctor who was that concerned about me as a patient. I am involved in my clients personal life so I am aware that once people get to 55 or 65 years old most of them are on 5 to 15 drugs. The drugs are a problem for them and then it is just a matter of time until the drugs cause more problems.
Dr. Lalezar took the normal blood test along with information about my life including work, family etc. With this information she began treating me or I should say advising me as to what I needed to do. I followed her advice over several months and everything came into line. During that time she was available by phone monitoring my progress with questions and then she gave adjustments.
After the follow up test Dr. Lalezar was smiling and pleased with the results which showed everything was within normal range and all with no medication. However there was something new with these second series of blood test. I could see the concern on her face when she informed me my PSA was up to 13 and I needed to see a prostrate doctor. After a couple of visits with a prostate specialist he found that I had prostrate cancer. I went back to Dr. Lalezar and she spent about an hour explaining to me what choices the prostrate doctor would give me and what choices she could give. With confidence, I decided to work with Dr. Lalezar and while treating me she started a research project and found a treatment where heat is used to kill the cancer cells without side effects. This treatment was in Germany and by the time I started this treatment my PSA had elevated to 29. This is aggressive prostrate cancer and needed to be taken care of right away. Today my PSA is zero and the prostate doctors have told me it is completely gone.
Dr. Lalezar is more than a doctor. When she found out my seventeen year-old daughter was considering being a doctor she immediately offered to meet and talk with her. Dr. Lalezar spent four inspirational hours with my daughter, which has been invaluable.
This testimony is not for Dr. Lalezar but for you who might be reading this. I love helping people just like Dr. lalezar does and I want everybody to know what wonderful help is available to you. When you go into her office you will see happy people. I now consider Dr. Lalezar a life long friend.
Thank you for your time and please don’t hesitate to contact me if I can be of further assistance.

Testimonial 5: Menopause
Dear Dr. Lalezar,
Since I have started coming to you for helping me transition into menopause, you have helped me tremendously. You have helped me to understand that what I am going through emotionally, physically, and spiritually is all a part of a natural process that occurs during this time in a woman's life. I have learned and still continue to learn more compassion, acceptance, and self love for myself. Therefore, it really has freed me up on self judgment, and is allowing me to grow into the person I strive so much to be.
The combination of the physical treatment through supplements, and the psychological through hypnosis has helped me and continues to help me have a more peaceful and comfortable transition during this difficult time in my life. I am so thankful and appreciate for all you have done for me. You are so kind and compassionate, and this as well is helping me accept and transition with much more grace and ease.
It is so wonderful and such a comfort to know that there is help and hope during this challenging time. Than you so much for all you have given me. Just know you make a difference. With deepest gratitude and appreciation, Robyn Chemrinow.
Testimonial 6: General Health and Holistic Medicine
Dr. Lalezar first treated me about 7years ago. Back then, I was familiar with the concept of Holistic Medicine, but never made the connections that were necessary to benefit from it. Being treated by Dr. Lalezar made something click, her consultation provided insights that changed my life. Over the years, her suggestions have made real and measurable improvements in my health, attitude, mood, and even my being.
I was also taken by the way Dr. Lalezar practices medicine. As a member of an HMO, I was usually shuttled from room to room, rushed through consultations, and generally just treated like a number on a chart. Much to my delight, my experience with Dr. Lalezar was the exact opposite- it felt like I was seeing my family doctor who had been treating me for years!
Dr. Lalezar's intuitive and caring nature are more than any patient could hope for, regardless of where they're being treated. I'm happy to find her at the Health and Vitality Center, where she is able to practice to her full potential. To this day, I still follow Dr. Lalezar's advice, and can't thank her enough for the positive affects she's had on my life.

Testimonial 7: HCG Diet, Hypertension, Diabetes
Dear Dr. Lalezar:
Thank you for my new look and for improving my life. I feel like a wonderful new woman.
When I first came to see you my blood pressure was 160/90, my blood sugar was 143, and my weight was 179 lbs. I was taking six different pills to “control” my blood pressure and had taken 2-3 different pills to control my blood sugar. Needless to say, I was dealing with many different side effects from these medications. You suggested that I go on the hCg Weight Loss Program. I told you I didn’t want to and gave you several reasons why I felt it was not for me. But after you explained how it worked, how much weight I would lose, and how much better I would feel after 30 days, I became convinced. I must say it wasn’t easy, but I followed the plan, and now I am feeling great. I want to thank you for convincing me that it would only lead to good results.
After completing the 7-day Detox protocol, I experienced amazing results: I lost four pounds! Within a week of starting the hCg my vitals were all good. My weight fell at an average rate of one pound per day and my blood sugar significantly decreased to 105. For the past 29 days my blood pressure has been consistently within the range of 124/74 and 130/79, and I now take only one medication to control my blood pressure. Before I came to see you I felt that my blood pressure would never get below 140/83. HCg has changed my life. It has taught me how to control my portions and caloric intake. My energy has increased, and I exercise more than ever. My clothes fit me better - I went from a size 14 to a size 10. I look and feel great! My support team (kids, coworkers, and friends) all thank you.
Your office staff is the best, and they are to be thanked as well. Tracy and Megan were huge sources of encouragement.
Sincerely
Shirley Shamdas

Testimonial 8: Osteopathy: Neck pain and Headache
I would like to express my gratitude towards Dr. Lalazar and her very friendly staff.
When I first met with Dr. Lalazar, I had been treated by a chiropractor for whiplash from a car accident. After over two months of seeing the chiropractor, my pain was only getting worse. I had headaches almost every day and my neck just hurt constantly. I wasn’t even aware that Dr. Lalazar performed Osteopathy at her office. I had found her through my insurance and was taking a last resort to go to a doctor to possibly get pain medication. When Dr. Lalazar examined my neck problems, she performed her osteopathy that day. After only two weeks, my neck went from severe pain and limited motion with constant muscle spasms to 100% healed. Through her osteopathic treatment and the IVs (which helped tremendously), I was able to workout again and do everything I was doing before the car accident. The only regret I have is that I wish I had found her earlier instead of wasting 2 months of my life unable to do normal daily activities.
Since then, I still visit Dr. Lalazar regularly as my primary doctor. She cares more about my health than any other doctor I have ever worked with before. Her focus is on wellness. Other physicians I’d seen in the past only cared when I was sick or hurt and even then, would only have about 3-5 minute face to face time before writing me a prescription and sending me on my way. With Dr. Lalazar, she treats you not only when you are sick, but when you are well. She helps you incorporate healthy living into your lifestyle. It’s nice to work with someone who actually cares about my well-being and spends time with me to discuss what improvements can be made.
Thank you!

Testimonial 9: Chelation Therapy and Heavy Metal Toxicity
Dr. Lalezar, just a note to thank you for the chelation treatments, which have made a major difference in my health! It was sobering when you showed me the test results indicating I had high levels of mercury in my body. I know that mercury is really toxic, and I wondered if it might account for some of my problems with pain and fatigue. The chelation treatments provided at your Center gradually removed the mercury from my system, and it has made a major difference. I really feel fantastic for the first time in years! I seem to have much less pain and much better energy, and just generally feel good. All of your services are really excellent but the chelation in particular is fantastic. I hope that any other people out there who perhaps have high mercury but don’t know it find their way to your office!

Testimonial 10: Asthma, Migraine, Anxiety
I would like to thank Dr. Lalezar because when I started seeing her I was experiencing headaches almost daily and occasional full blown migraines. I was often anxious and the most trivial thing would trigger anxiety attacks. My exercise induced asthma was getting worse...not good for a high school athlete. I was taking Advair morning & night and taking an Albuterol inhaler almost daily. With the help of Dr. Lalezar and her recommendations, including a gluten free diet, headaches are rare (and usually from not sticking to my diet.) My anxiety is under control and after 6 weeks I completely discontinued the use of Advair. Now I only use my inhaler on an occasional basis. Thanks to Dr. Lalezar I've experienced significant improvement in how I feel, not only physically but also emotionally.
