Dr. Artz truly changed my life! When I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s 4 years ago, I was told by every doctor that my only option was to wait for my thyroid to stop functioning, and THEN they’d prescribe medicine. I was desperate for help with my symptoms of weight gain, problems with my gut, constant exhaustion, brain fog, anxiety, etc., and Dr. Artz was the first doctor who was able to look at me as a WHOLE and figure out what was actually happening with my body and what we needed to do together to make me feel like myself again. She works to find the root cause of what’s actually going on, and she doesn’t give up until she figures it out! Numbers on my bloodwork that other doctors had brushed off as “normal” were alarming to Dr. Artz when she pieced everything together. It was a lot of intentional effort on my end, but Dr. Artz is the best cheerleader and held my hand through all the ups and downs of getting my health back! She is so friendly and kind and genuinely cares about her patients. I always feel heard and supported, and I know she is just as invested in my health as I am. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Artz and literally recommend her to everyone I know! She is truly the best!!!
I’ve had thyroid issues for many years and been prescribed the typical generic thyroid med. I just never felt good though, and the Endocrinologist wasn’t listening to me. I would go back every 6 months just to have him run another TSH (thyroid hormone) blood test and nothing more. Then when I was diagnosed with osteoporosis and his response was Western medicine’s way of handling everything – another prescription (in a class of drugs known to have very harmful side effects), I knew I had to do something different. So, fed up with Western medicine, I went in search of answers and found Dr. Artz. She listened. She ran blood work no one in all my 70 years of life had ever run. Through her care, we discovered cortisol issues, a gene mutation, and Hashimoto’s disease. Dr. Artz suggested an anti-inflammatory gluten free diet, along with supplementation, to support my body at a cellular level. Her approach to address the root cause and not just prescribe drugs to treat the symptoms is what I most appreciate. Under her care I have found I sleep better at night, I am growing bone as evidenced by recent DEXA scans, I have more energy during the day, and being gluten free my gut just feels calmer. I fired my endocrinologist and consult with Dr. Artz now. She is kind and reassuring. I appreciate her straightforwardness and her tenacity at finding the solution I needed to feel better and live a better life. I am so happy to be under her care.
It’s not an easy task to adequately express the deep level of respect and gratitude I have for someone who has helped 3 generations of women in my family rise to a level of wellness after many years of frustration with health issues. But that is exactly what Dr. Artz has done for me and my family. Initially my daughter found Dr. Artz for my granddaughter who was manifesting autoimmune issues among other things. And the traditional medical community was not helping her. So she began a program with Dr. Artz. And next it became clear that some of my own life long health issues were eerily similar to my granddaughters, so I embarked on my own program with Dr. Artz. Although our diagnoses were similar and we both began with an anti inflammatory diet, Dr. Artz’s prescribed treatments for us were very different. Dr. Artz discerns the individualities of each person. Therefore our treatment plans were distinctive. And now my daughter has joined Dr. Artz in her own healing journey (2 years later). And again her treatment is very specialized and unique to her. Dr. Artz is a master of reading blood labs and not accepting the standard norms as “normal results” on bloodwork. She finds complexities and interrelationships of lab results that give her a better detailed picture of the individual person. Healing with Dr. Artz was a slow but progressive journey. I’m so glad I stuck with it and will continue to do so because my overall health has greatly improved! For those of us who have health issues there is usually no quick fix. Finding the right path to well-being is a lifelong journey. And if you are serious about your health, it is imperative to find a medical partner you can trust who will guide and assist you. Dr. Artz is a rare find. She will take you above and beyond the usual doctor/patient relationship. And what better investment could you make in your life than investing in your own health and well-being? I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Artz to anyone hoping to finally get their health issues resolved.
I’ve been a patient of Dr Artz for more than 2 years and couldn’t be happier with the care I have received. Her staff is always friendly, responsive and quick to help with any questions or concerns. All of my appointments have been through telehealth, and the experience has always been easy, comfortable and professional. Dr Artz and her team make you feel heard and supported. I highly recommend them!
Our daughter began seeing Dr. Artz a little over a year ago after feeling like western medicine had failed us. Monroe was diagnosed with CRMO at 3 ½ after undergoing a multitude of agonizing tests and seemingly ruling out everything else. However, when we started the treatment that her rheumatologist suggested, nothing was improving; in fact, she was getting worse. Her follow-up MRIs showed more active lesions and her flare-ups were becoming more frequent. When her doctors recommended escalating treatment, we decided to look for better answers and found our biggest blessing, Dr. Artz. From day 1 of working with her, I knew that she was going to change our lives. She is so knowledgeable and has so much passion for her work. She told me more about Monroe from her first set of labs than I was EVER told by her doctors at SCH. We discovered right off the bat that Monroe has Hashimoto’s and that her inflammatory markers were through the roof. Her treatment plan was intense but simple and completely natural- within weeks she was an entirely different child. Throughout her treatment, we conducted other studies that proved her original CRMO diagnosis to be incorrect. We found, instead, that she had a bacterial infection in her gut that was 100% treatable. She has since then finished treatment and is thriving in her maintenance phase. Monroe is unrecognizable compared to the girl she was last April. I attribute her healing completely to Dr. Artz and I only wish we had found her sooner. She has become more than just a doctor to us, she is a friend that I can trust and my daughter’s biggest hero. Dr. Artz will be the last doctor you ever need because she will give you the tools, knowledge and confidence you need to lead a happier and healthier life.
From the first time I met Dr. Artz, I knew she was different. For years, I felt like my only options were birth control, medications, or being told to “just have a baby” without anyone truly trying to understand what was causing my symptoms. Dr. Artz took the time to look at the bigger picture and help me address the root cause of my health concerns. Instead of simply treating symptoms, she gave me a personalized plan and helped me understand what was happening in my body. For the first time, I felt heard, supported, and empowered in my own health journey. I am incredibly grateful for her knowledge, compassion, and dedication to her patients. I cannot recommend her enough.
From the first time I met with Dr. Artz, I knew I was in good hands. She cares about the root cause, not just the symptoms. There’s truly no one I trust more to help navigate my health. From hormones, to autoimmune, through pregnancy and postpartum, she’s been there through it all. Offering so much knowledge, guidance, and shared life experience. Could not recommend her more.
Working with Dr. Artz has been absolutely amazing. Over the year or so we have worked together I have been able to get off a prescription medication I was taking for 10 years. She is such a wealth of knowledge and I have never worked with a doctor who gives me so much autonomy. She meets you where you’re at and is so so kind. I think everyone would benefit from seeing her.
I have been working with Dr. Artz for 2 years now, and she has absolutely changed my life. I have struggled with Hashimoto’s disease, hypoglycemia, and hormonal irregularities since I was 13. I had been told by multiple doctors for years that my symptoms couldn’t be treated, and I had to wait for my thyroid to fail before we did anything. At my first appointment with Dr. Artz she told me that I was not broken and she had a whole plan to get me feeling better. 2 years later, I am a whole different person and my quality of life has drastically improved. Not only is she insanely sharp and knowledgeable, she is also a joy of a human to work with. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone and could not be more thankful to have her in my corner.
I found Dr. Artz back when my son was struggling with severe head to toe eczema. We had been to multiple pediatricians, dermatologists, allergists—we finally saw true healing after working with Dr. Artz. If you’ve ever experienced your child going through this—you know how much that means to finally have your baby no longer suffering. If you want a doctor who is intentional with each step—who really spends the time + makes the effort to get to know + understand her patients health—she’s the real deal! Not only did she help my son, she helped me during those tough times as well—so I could show up and support my son even better. I am so grateful to her + so excited for her new journey in opening her own clinic!
I cannot say enough amazing things about Dr. Artz. She has truly changed my life in so many ways. When I started working with her, I was struggling with hormone imbalance, gut issues, anxiety, burnout, and years of chronically under-eating. Through her care and guidance, I got my cycle back, healed my gut, and learned how to better manage and work through my anxiety. One of the biggest things she taught me was that food is fuel. She helped me feel comfortable nourishing my body properly again and completely changed the way I view health and nutrition. Beyond the physical healing, she also helped me realize the importance of putting myself first sometimes instead of constantly running on empty for everyone else. As a mom and someone who was deeply burned out, that mindset shift was life-changing for both me and my family. What makes Dr. Artz so special is that she truly cares about every patient as a whole person. She listens, supports, educates, and genuinely wants to see people become the healthiest, happiest versions of themselves. You can feel how much she loves what she does. I am endlessly grateful for her care and recommend her wholeheartedly.
My journey to Dr. Artz started nearly 20 years ago when I was first diagnosed with low thyroid production. For years, I saw countless doctors and practitioners, underwent numerous tests and therapies, and was often left with more questions than answers. While some offered pieces of insight along the way, nothing truly helped me feel better or gave me real hope for healing. About a year ago, my health took a steep decline. It was frightening, and honestly, I had almost given up trying to find answers. My wife and I scheduled an appointment with Britnei, and to say I was skeptical would be an understatement. During our second meeting, Dr. Artz walked me through every blood test and explained where things were working, where they weren’t, and how everything connected. It was an incredibly emotional experience for me. After years of feeling unseen, sitting in front of someone who could read my labs like a map — and offer not just explanations, but real, healthy solutions — was something I’ll never forget. I can tell you if you’re struggling to find answers to what ails you, I’ve yet to meet or hear of a doctor that compares. She is brilliant, she is kind and I am so grateful that she is my doctor. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me and my family, you hold a very special place with us.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO KEEP GUESSING.
