Redriver Health And Wellness Center Of Boise's Online Review Report Card

We took our 4-year-old daughter, Monroe, to Dr. Artz at Red River 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 doctors suggested- first NSAIDs, then methotrexate injections- 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. We were then advised to start bisphosphonate therapy along with Humira injections. This was the point that I decided to look elsewhere. I stumbled upon Dr. Redd through a podcast which ultimately led me to Red River and 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 lab work than I was EVER told by her doctors at SCH. We discovered right off the bat that Monroe also has Hashimoto's and that her inflammatory markers were through the roof. Her treatment plan was intense but simple- within weeks she was an entirely different child. Throughout her treatment we have conducted other studies that have proven her original CRMO diagnosis to be incorrect. We found, instead, that she has a bacterial infection in her gut that is 100% treatable. We are six months into treatment and my daughter is unrecognizable compared to the girl she was in April. She is active, fun, outspoken, brilliant and SO happy. She has no more leg pain, no more stomach problems, no fatigue and such a healthy appetite- she has even come to love foods that she wouldn’t dare touch before we started her treatment. I attribute her healing completely to Dr. Artz and the Red River team and I only wish we had found her sooner. If you or your child are struggling to find answers to your health problems, this is it! Red River is the answer!

Red River Health and Welness was the answer to so many of my health concerns. I was wary of doing over the phone appointments, but they were fabulous. Built a great relationship with 2 doctors who not only listened but offered great ideas in my health journey. Friendly staff as well. I would highly recommend to anyone!

Red river and Dr. Artz have given me my quality of life back and the tools/knowledge I need to maintain it! Before my treatment plan, I had a laundry list of problems, food sensitivities, no energy, severe brain fog, my stomach alway hurt, I lived in bed or on the couch because I was just. too. tired. The list was extensive! I have two young children and had been to 4 different doctors, including specialists, trying to get help, I KNEW there wasn’t going to be answers going a traditional medicine route! My family and I decided, HEALTH is an investment. Which, 100% was scary at the time! What if I didn’t end up feeling better and we spent all this money? It felt like a biggg leap of faith, especially after going so long with so many disappointments. If I could go back… I would do it over again and again. There is hope. I’m not exaggerating when I say I never thought I would feel good or “like myself” ever again. I live differently than the way I used too though, in a great way- the power of QUALITY, WHOLE food is now what we, (me & my family) invests in and has become a big part of “my medicine”- because it works! You feel good when you fuel your body with things it needs! Being able to have a care plan, supplements and advice tailored to me was also life altering and empowering. The supplements were all things that aided in my recovery and Dr.Artz knew and could tell me, EXACTLY why I was taking each supplement and for what reason and then took me off them when they fulfilled their purpose! Not a bandaid pill to cover up a deeper problem…. I learned what foods were causing immune responses and inflammation in my body, and it was difficult at first to cut some out but when you see and feel result it becomes easier/worth it. They gave me tools to live a quality of life and I’m forever grateful I chose Red River!

So glad I found Red River Health and Wellness. Dr. Artz was so easy to talk to and the personalized care plan she provided was easy to follow. I am feeling so much better, my energy levels are back up, and as a bonus, I don’t get sore when I start a new workout routine (I used to be horribly sore for days and thought that was normal). Getting rid of inflammation is key and Dr. Artz has a great plan of attack for helping your body fight off chronic inflammation and feel better.

I cannot recommend Dr Artz and Red River enough! The whole program has completely changed my life. I started the program due to auto immune/thyroid issues. Dr Artz is incredibly knowledgeable and explains all symptoms and blood work in detail to help understand what goes on in our bodies. She has given me tools to feel confident going forward. I’m so happy with my decision and the results.

Dr. Artz helped me get my life back! I was sick and struggling for years before I found Red River. Dr. Artz is an incredibly bright person who cares about her patients and taught me how to get my thyroid condition under control. I didn't know it was possible to feel this good. This was the best investment in my health and will forever be thankful to Dr. Artz and her team at Red River.

Dr. Brittnei Artzt and Dr. Sydney Skelton were both very helpful to me. They identified that I had mold exposure before I eventually found that my car was secretly letting in water and was full of mold. This had been making me quite sick, which I never was before. Both doctors were wonderful at finding natural ways to resolve my issues without prescription medication. They also identified issues that may have impacted my future health and corrected them as well. I am very happy to have this kind of alternative available, as well as being able to be treated long-distance.

Dr. Sydney Skelton has been absolutely transformative in my healthcare journey. After having four children, I felt like I had lost touch with myself. I was struggling both physically and emotionally, unsure of how to reclaim my well-being. From our very first appointment, Dr. Skelton demonstrated exceptional care and attention. She asked all the right questions, really taking the time to understand my unique situation. Her thorough approach extended to ordering comprehensive tests, leaving no stone unturned in getting to the root of my issues. What sets Dr. Skelton apart is her holistic approach to health. Along with her medical recommendations, she introduced me to German New Medicine. This fascinating field explores the proven laws connecting emotional trauma and experiences to physical symptoms. It was eye-opening and provided a new perspective on my health that I had never considered before. The combination of Dr. Skelton's medical expertise and her introduction to these alternative approaches has been life-changing. For the first time in years, I feel like myself again - actually, I feel better than I ever have before. Dr. Skelton's care has given me a new lease on life. I'm deeply grateful for her expertise, compassion, and willingness to explore innovative approaches to health. If you're feeling lost or struggling with persistent health issues, I can't recommend Dr. Skelton highly enough. She may very well change your life as she did mine. ​​​

Dr Sydney Skelton is amazing! She listens and you can tell she truly cares about her patients. I’ve dealt with hormone and thyroid issues for years and Dr Skelton’s plan has me feeling better than I have in years! Definitely recommend!

This is life changing medical advice. What I love most are the simple adjustments and life hacks that are priceless. They don't treat you like a patient, there more like friends and really care. It's a less invasive approach to healing, that I have never experienced before. Thank you 🙏
