Dr. Irene J. Valencia
I recall my first visit to Thrive Natural Medicine; I met with Dr. Valencia to discuss my medical situation. I was diagnosed with rectal cancer, have one functioning kidney and more than 15 years of digestive troubles. I lived a relatively healthy life prior to diagnosis and now I have to step up even more and heal from this cancer. This has been the most intense and profound life journey; for the decisions, the suffering, the healing , and the transformation that takes place. Dr. Irene came to my rescue she supports my healing in every way. Her knowledge, expertise and referrals to other professionals, have helped me to get the best care possible. At Thrive I receive high dose vitamin C injections as well as other supportive vitamins and nutraceuticals. I have also had vitamin B injections. We discovered through the comprehensive blood testing that Dr. Irene ordered that I have a broken gene for absorbing B-12. I have learned so much and I continue to improve and yes I am healing well! I continue to see Dr. Irene for continuing care and consultation as needed. I am also very grateful to have discounted packages for my IV C therapy. This has mad it possible for my healing journey started in 2021 and continues into 2023.
I am so grateful for level of care I receive and how sincerely attentive she is to my needs always checking in with me each visit. This is the place where holistic truly means caring for body mind and spirit heart to heart.

I want to say it a million times over to you!!! Deeply, from the bottom of my heart — thank you. And thank you for following your heart’s passion so that you may help SO many people. You are so loved and cherished.
