So Grateful for Dr. Sandman’s Expertise & Care. I’ve been incredibly grateful for Dr. Sandman’s gentle & grounded expertise, & well-prescribed care. I’m thrilled how quickly he hit-the-nail-on-the-head regarding my diagnosis. He gradually altered my meds & detoxed me of wrong prescriptions I’ve taken over the past 20 years which had actually caused me depression & anxiety. It’s like a rebirth & second lease on life.

You can download the chart in pdf format under Forms & Charts page.
