Testimonials from CIRS Patients
In working with Paula and Laurie, I was taught about the physiology of CIRS…..what was happening to my body and how we were going to reverse these devastating effects. I had never had medical treatment like this before. Someone actually cared enough about me to teach me to be my own advocate going forward. I now had the tools to manage CIRS.
When I got the results of my home and work mold tests, Laurie and Paula put me in touch with Cindy Edwards, an amazing CIRS literate environmental professional and building performance specialist. Cindy was able to walk me through the details of what I needed to do to make my environments safe for me. All of this was a tremendous amount of work but my “team” was there for me every step of the way. They gave me encouragement and even tough love when I needed it. They even helped to educate my local primary care doctor so that she could provide the appropriate follow-up care for me and for others with CIRS.
It has been a little over four years since I first became sick. I am finishing up my VIP and feeling better than I have in longer than I can remember. All of my blood work is slowly improving and I am finally feeling hopeful about my future again thanks to my partnership with this team of professionals. from K B

Paula and Laurie provided me with comprehensive information and references in order to educate me about CIRS, its causes, and its multiple complex effects. Laurie taught a very thorough class to reinforce this learning and to teach us about how to get better through symptom tracking, the Shoemaker Protocol, and appropriate mold remediation in our homes and workplaces. Paula and Laurie scheduled periodic appointments with me to keep track of biomarkers and help me with each step of the protocol. Cindy Edwards, my home performance and biotoxin specialist, consulted with me on a regular basis about how to make sure that my home was safe for me and my family.
I am now a good way through the protocol. I am grateful to them for their knowledge, professionalism, accessibility, and conscientiousness. This is such a difficult and complicated disease that I could never have navigated treatment on my own with my primary care physician.
Most of all, I am grateful to Paula, Laurie, and Cindy for their kindness, empathy, and integrity. They care deeply about their patients and want them to get better. They invited questions and answered any and all I had with plentiful information and references to resources, and treated me with respect. This team has helped me get better so that I will be able to live a full life, and I will never forget that. from P D
