Meet Mariah!
Before coming to Harper Clinic as a patient and then as an employee, I suffered from a variety of health-related issues. Type 1 diabetes and its side effects had to be one of my biggest problems. Having diabetes for 20 years had caused digestive issues and neuropathy in my feet which is extremely painful. I received a type of ozone injection for my neuropathy which completely got rid of the pain and tingling which allowed me to be able to sleep better. I was also educated in diet and foods to cut out which improved my digestive issues which were a life saver. Through lab tests, I was also diagnosed with severe hyperthyroidism which had its own horrible side effects. I was treated by the MD on staff and am like a whole new person because of it. I have also received ozone shots and biological allograft for a hip injury I received in Jr. High sports. I have since regained all range of motion back in my hip which has allowed me to be pain-free ever since. Everyone from the Doctors to the front desk staff has been amazing. All of the doctors have played a huge role in helping me solve my health problems! They are all very caring and professional. I feel like they truly care about their patients’ health and wellbeing. It’s a great feeling! I would recommend everyone to come to Harper Clinic! They’re awesome!
