Patient Testimonials

My experience as a patient of Pedre Integrative Health has been extraordinary in that I feel taken care of with regard to body, mind and spirit.

I sought care as I was frustrated by unrelenting and unresolved GI symptoms. During my first visit Dr. Pedre took a detailed history and we began to connect the dots in an effort to find root cause resolution of my issues. After labs and functional testing we put a plan in place and it’s bringing me relief after what feels like years of suffering. I’m especially feeling strong and confident with regard to my health as I’m taking regular IV infusions to boost my immunity in the midst of this global health crisis.

Dr. Pedre’s office staff is wonderful. Jackie responds quickly to my inquiries with kindness and professional courtesy.

I highly recommend this practice to those seeking a functional approach combined with the attention of a concierge program.

I have recently left NYC and now that I’m gone I have had the opportunity to reflect on how grateful I am for having had Dr. Pedre as my doctor while I lived in NYC (and will continue while I am abroad!). I’ve always appreciated his approach and how he really listens to and cares for his patients.  I realized how lucky I am to have Dr. Pedre as my doctor after my mom’s experience at the doctor yesterday.

My mom has significant mold issues in her house (it’s so bad that even the curtains are covered in mold!) and exhibits many of the symptoms so based on my experience I recommended her to ask her doctor yesterday to order the mold blood testing. Her doctor completely ignored her and told her she has allergies and wouldn’t entertain the idea of mold toxicity.

Unfortunately I think doctors like this are the norm which is why I am so absolutely lucky that I stumbled upon Dr. Pedre’s website back in 2016 otherwise I am sure my mold toxicity would have been left untreated. Dr. Pedre’s approach to listen to the patients and ask about their life really helps to identify what is going on. I’ll never forget how his simple question of how my vacation went and how things at home were helped us to realize I had mold exposure. We’ve been treating the mold exposure as well as other issues and my health has greatly improved. I am so thankful for Dr. Pedre’s holistic approach.

I originally came to Dr Pedre many years ago after experiencing some very debilitating symptoms despite doing “all the things” like eating a clean diet and meditating and doing yoga. In fact, I used to be a health coach and yoga and meditation instructor so I was baffled when I started having really debilitating issues.

He helped me uncover the root of my issues and found some very complex things going on that many doctors easily looked past or were unwilling to consider. He listened and offered care, proper testing and solutions. He has been the foundation of my care for many years and through many serious and complex issues.

With appropriate testing we were able to then devise an appropriate treatment strategy that was always open to change and modification where needed. I love his balance of East meets West where he finds what works best for his patients and how he tries to find natural holistic solutions wherever possible. He has helped me through some of the scariest times in my life and has worked well as a team with many other doctors, many who he has referred me to, advocating when necessary. My issues have been complex with several neurologists and a hematologist on my team so for him to be willing to even work with a patient such as myself it is a blessing.

He has helped me not only take better care of, but also heal my gut after experiencing SIBO and parasites and after I had experienced long term IV and oral antibiotic use. He is always up to date with the latest research and testing and finding new things to try and ways to approach things. He has saved my life many times and I don’t say that lightly.

His staff is always helpful and attentive. If I need to reach him with important questions or emergency issues we always find a way to communicate and he makes himself available. He also has spent time communicating with other doctors on my team in order to ensure the best care. He understands his patients and listens.  He doesn’t think I’m crazy if I question whether we should test something or try something else and is always willing to consider what works best for his patients. He is the most compassionate, caring doctor I have ever experienced in my life and truly cares about his patient’s entire well being from physical to emotional and spiritual health. He is not only a great doctor but a great human being.

I recommend him all the time and I am more than happy to recommend him to people who are looking for an excellent integrative doctor who can not only find the root cause of issues that stumps other doctors, but also provide solutions that are helpful and more holistic based. I am forever grateful to have crossed paths with Dr Pedre and to have the quality of care I continue to receive.

I haven’t visited Dr. Pedre’s office, however I have been following his online Happy Gut program for 5 months.  I have experienced tremendous health improvements, and highly recommend Dr. Pedre and his gut health program.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Pedre for around two years. My stomach was so messed up, it was constantly bloated and making all sort of strange rounds. Very embarrassing. Plus I was always fatigued, not feeling well and getting autoimmune disorders. Dr. Pedre really cares about his patients. He’s kind, brilliant, and takes the time to listen. I followed his protocol for over a year and my stomach calmed down, and I started feeling overall healthier than I have in years. He’s the real deal. If you really stick to his protocol you’ll see a big difference. Most illness start from the gut. And it’s imperative that you find a doctor who knows what they are doing. Dr Pedre is highly knowledgeable. On another note: Jackie his office manager is so helpful and nice.

I have been going to Dr. Pedre’s office for both IV therapy to boost immunity and also had a session with Kristin to discuss a possible hormone imbalance for the past year.  The entire staff is incredibly caring and I feel at peace knowing that Dr. Pedre has his finger on the pulse of innovation in terms of functional medicine.  I am taking a proactive stance when it comes to my health and have found an incredible co-creator in terms of a doctor’s office.  I am happy to have access to this well-versed team.

I have been searching for a physician who takes an Interest in his patients. I found Dr. Pedre and the rest is history. I never have to wait in a waiting room full of patients which is a plus for me.

During my office visit, Dr. Pedre takes the time to speak with me and answers all my questions. He is genuinely interested in his patients.

In May 2020, I started to do the IV Therapy to build up my immune system. I have Epstein Barr Virus and having the IV Therapy, has really helped my immune system. I’m so happy that I made this IV Therapy a priority in my life.

Dr. Pedre’s staff is wonderful. I always feel well taken care of with Jackie. Any questions I have, Jackie has the answer! Luis has been doing my IV Therapy and he does an awesome job.

If you are looking for a very caring and knowledgeable physician, I highly recommend Dr. Pedre.

I think of having Dr. Pedre as my physician as a blessing in my life. He is so well versed in the different modalities of medicine — both Eastern and Western — and clearly explains what he considers to be the best options. Yet he is never dogmatic. Along with keeping me generally quite healthy, when challenges arise, I feel like we are working together as a team to make the most appropriate decisions for me.

It is a pleasure to come to an office where Dr. Pedre (along with his staff) fully focuses his attention on each patient. It is like a calming oasis in the middle of our frenzied city.
