I've known Dr. Lee all my life, so for me that was an easy, obvious decision to make to work with her. More importantly, though, is why would you choose to work with her. First of all, Dr. Lee has had various very life experiences, so she was able to easily relate to people from all walks of life. Number two, she is a person of faith or a very religious person and to realize the importance of belief and faith in achieving change. And finally, she has walked the walk, so to speak and with her own life wellness challenges which he talks about writes about in her book, NOT SICK ENOUGH TO DIE.

Naturopathic by Lee ND is for everyone. It's something I can confidently wholeheartedly recommend others. One thing to notice you're not signing up for a monthlong, monthlong regimen of appointments rather typically you are coming, you are coming in for a few appointments, your issues are identified are addressed, you are sent on your way, so to speak. A great thing about Dr. Lee is that she is also a nutritionist and another very big point is that she has in addition to her knowledge of traditional, naturopathy, her training and that she also has knowledge of Chinese Medicine. And finally, D. Lee is very adept, quickly gets a grasp of what is going on uh with your body and its health issues as your body is indicating to the practitioner what is wrong, what is going on.

Some years ago I was visiting my father in a nursing home facility and I quickly decided that I didn't want to spend the last years of my life in such a place. It was obvious to me that most if not all of the residents there, we're not using natural medicine as part of their wellness plan. Also, cancer was a big problem on my father's side of the family and I was already approaching middle age at that time. Finally my diet was not the best and hadn't been for decades, so I'm sure that was an ongoing issue I had. Well I'm happy to say that at this time I have never been in a nursing home, I've never had a heart attack or a stroke and I am cancer free in the sense that I've never had it had to deal with it as other members of my family have had to do. Also let me say two other things that had happened. I had had shingles and we were able to beat that in 2.5 weeks working with dr lee And I had been taking allergy shots for over 40 years and after a few months I was able to stop doing that

Suffered from high blood pressure. Was overweight with a “spare tire” (37 -38-inch waist), AND a high body-fat percentage. Had severe allergies; receiving allergy shots since the age of 5. Underactive thyroid gland; adrenaline released when startled or surprised. Had “fuzzy” concentration and mental processes. Had a passive & fearful personality. Later on, developed shingles at 57 years of age.

AFTER WORKING WITH DR. LEE:Blood pressure in normal range. Lost 20 pounds; (34-inch waist); body-fat percentage in normal range. No longer needed allergy shots (after 45 years!) Shingles healed in 2 1/2 weeks –to date, no relapse. Balanced under-active thyroid. Much clearer concentration and mental processes. More confident & assertive.Dr. Lee has a wonderful, extensive, and innate understanding of the body and how to allow it to regenerate and heal itself. Now that I am in control of my health, my body is regenerating–not degenerating!

Written Testimonies

In Their Own Words

Eczema · Candidiasis · Food Addiction

My son was diagnosed with eczema, an incurable skin disease when he was three months old! From the time we began seeing Dr. Lee we started experiencing results immediately. She helped my son clear up his eczema, and balanced my candidiasis. and helped me overcome my many food addictions and codependence which was not an easy task!She would tell me several times that she was praying for me and my family – which we desperately needed. I know that is why we did as well as we did.

Overweight · Hair Loss · Parasites · Candidiasis

I decided to lose weight. This was new to me because I had NEVER been overweight. I consulted friends and someone in the medical field for suggestions. I began exercising and what I thought was eating better. Yes, I did lose some weight, but my hair began falling out.

Now, thanks to Dr. Lee, I am learning what it is to truly eat healthy and how important it is to cleanse my system of the toxins in my body from the food I eat and the toxins from our environment.

Acne · Indigestion · Irregular Bowel Movements · Candidiasis · Anxiety · Night Sweats

My internet search for a Naturopath led me to Dr. Lee. In my mind, she was my last-ditch effort to try and find a non-medicinal approach to healing my body. My symptoms were getting worse and all of my personal research and attempts to heal myself naturally were not effective. Unlike traditional medical doctors, Dr. Lee took the time to truly listen to my symptoms in order to make the most precise treatment plan for me. Since starting treatment with her only six months ago, I can wash my face without feeling the pain from the cystic acne, my gastrointestinal problems are gone, the night sweats are less severe and the level of my anxiety has decreased. I am still a work in progress, but with Dr. Lee’s expertise and God’s grace, I am on the path to whole health.

~ Amy Sheehan

I have had lots of health issues most of my life. In my early twenties, I started my search to help myself and tried maLny different things. Diet, exercise, chiropractic care, homeopathic medicine, herbs, and vitamins were my way of life but always kept fighting some sort of virus or a hormone imbalance.

Being a Wife Mother Grandmother and Daughter, many people depend on me. This made me determined to keep searching!

So Blessed to found Dr. Lee!! Being very moved by her testimony, I knew I was in the right place for me. Since I have been seeing her, I am able to think much clearer, no longer have the flu, colds or viruses and have the energy to keep up with my 12-year-old daughter and play with my Grandkids. I am working more than 40 hours many weeks and I never have to call off because of being sick.

I own and operate a Hair Salon, where my clients can get services that do not compromise there health by offering organic hair care!

Colon Cancer

Dearest Sherin Lee, If it was not for the fact that you are so good at your work as a healer, I would not be writing this letter and starting it out with an apology for being so late.You might recall a year ago when I contacted you after exhausting all of the many healthcare experts here in Sweden. The doctors here said that I had an evil kind of cancer and it was treated with cell-poison and radio-therapy, which did kill the COLON CANCER but left me with a body which was only an empty vessel. The side effects from so much care left me a prisoner of my home, unable to leave the area of the bathroom. My stomach and digestion system was totally out of balance and doctors, medicines, and nutritionists could not help in the least. Then along you came and here I am working full-time again, out skiing on the weekends, training during the week and thanks to all your wise council and hard care, here I am feeling like a human being again and enjoying myself.Sherin, how can I ever repay you? It must be very rewarding to be able to help people through your work.You are always in my thoughts and prayers.

Premature aging · Memory loss · High blood pressure · Stress-related symptoms · Chronic fatigue · Dark circles under her eyes · Diarrhea · Despondency

When I first went to Dr. Sherin, I was 59 and my face was starting to age quickly with deep lines and wrinkles. I had been experiencing memory loss for approximately eight years (it was especially hard for me to instantly recall customers’ names at work when they walked through the door). My husband and I had been “health-conscious” for years–we had taken various minerals, herbs and vitamins to supplement a low-fat, home-grown, semi-organic diet. I had taken gingko for years, and had been using bio-identical hormones for a couple years; but they didn’t seem to be helping much. Some aspects of my job can be stressful. I had been experiencing spikes in my blood pressure (up to 180/105!!!–and was averaging around 134/80 when not stressed). My G.P. immediately sent me for chest x-rays, an angiogram, and blood work. All he did was prescribe a high-level beta blocker. I did not want to be on a drug for the rest of my life which only controlled the symptoms, but did not address the root of the problem–especially when I read all the side-effects of the drug! My husband described my overall condition as despondent. I was always tired and had dark circles under my eyes. I was also experiencing diarrhea most of the time. I was going down the tubes quickly…. After several months of following Dr. Sherin’s guidelines, I have taken myself totally off the beta blocker and my normal blood pressure is down 20 points!!! I am no longer experiencing any drastic spikes in BP when stressed. I have also quit taking the expensive bio-identical hormones. I have noticed a marked improvement in the clarity of my mind; feel well-rested when I get adequate sleep; am able to maintain a higher level of energy throughout the day; and experience less fatigue at night. I am more alert and conversant with my husband when I get home from work. Now when I look in the mirror, I am beginning to see my former self–not some OLD stranger!!! Thank you, Dr. Sherin, for turning my health around before I regressed any further. Your specific advice, and the nutritional products you recommended have certainly improved my health and my life!

Chronic Urinary Tract Infections · Chronic Constipation and Diarrhea

Often we think that we have to live with our chronic illnesses or are told to learn to live with it. I have learned that there is a way to heal from many forms of chronic sickness.

When I began to experience a rapid decline after years of chronic infections (UTI) and subsequent antibiotics, as well as years of chronic constipation and diarrhea, I decided to open my mind to another way of treatment. This led me to Dr. Sherin Lee, ND. I noticed her sign on Larkin Ave. in Joliet, IL so many times.

Finally I decided to take action. First I found her website, liked what I saw there and decided to accept her invitation for a complimentary initial phone conversation, to see if this would be the right approach for me. After this initial conversation I felt assured that there was help for me from Dr. Lee. Thus began a new chapter in my life. I embarked on a journey that led me back to very good health.

During my first visit with Dr. Lee, I remember her saying, “When we give our bodies what they need, our bodies have the capacity to heal themselves.” The plan was to nourish, cleanse and create balance in body, mind and spirit, i.e. the whole person.

I learned that real and natural healing takes time and that it is a process and not an event. With loving care, wisdom, faith, knowledge and skill, Dr. Lee led me through the process of natural healing. With the support of understanding friends and family, I stayed on the path to healing through all the ups and downs along the way.

The UTI’s disappeared very quickly. After years of several infections every year, I was assured that I wouldn’t have another one. It has been 15 months since I began my healing journey with Dr. Lee, ND and am pleased to say that during all that time, I have never had another Urinary Tract Infection!
Healing the chronic constipation and diarrhea, which I had had for so many years, was a longer process for reasons Dr. Lee explained to me time and again with amazing patience. Thankfully I can now say that I am now healed of that affliction as well.

Now I look and feel alive again! I am very happy and grateful to God for leading me to Dr. Sherin Lee, ND. I am grateful to Dr. Lee for using her knowledge and skill in guiding me back to health and a life of vitality in my senior years.

ONE YEAR LATER:

Good Sunday Morning, Dr. Lee,

After several years of chronic UTI’s and a prescription of antibiotics each time, it became clear to me that I had to find help another way, as my immune system was in deep trouble. I began my search and was lead to Dr. Sherin Lee, ND. Soon after I began with her, I noticed that I wasn’t getting UTI’s anymore. I have been under Dr. Lee’s care for a year now and have never had another UTI!! Before I met Dr. Lee, I was given a prescription of antibiotics to take for one whole year, in the desperate attempt to get the infection out of my system completely.

I am pleased to say that I have never had the recurrence of another UTI!!!

Menopause-another word for it is suffering. I started having what felt like a hormone imbalance, brain fog, body & mental fatigue, hard to process things that should come natural for me and possible depression. I knew I couldn’t live that way for ten plus years, so I called Dr Sherin Lee, again. I had been under her treatment ten years ago for a sickness no one could put a name to. I hadn’t drove or worked in months. I had been a patient at UofC and left crying because I was not any nearer to finding out what was happening to me. I decided to see Dr Lee. She had me driving again in 3 weeks and working again at 4 weeks. I knew if she could help me accomplish that and not know what was happening she could help with a named issue, menopause. It has been 2 months since my initial visit. I am doing the things I use to do and 6 weeks ago wanted to do but couldn’t. I have started back doing and enjoying my once “normal activities” and enjoying others company again. Sherin Lee is smart, knowledgeably and she is brilliant when it comes to knowing how to get the “you” that you want.

I thank God and commend Dr. Lee for the knowledge and help she provided in the restoration of my health, restored to a level that was actually an answer to my prayers. Dr. Lee studied my case, worked extensively, and found a solution to my problem. I thank God for giving Dr. Lee the knowledge, wisdom, and ability to formulate a treatment plan that let me regain a simple pleasure of life that I had long waited to again enjoy. This was something that most people take for granted—the ability to eat.

I suffered through years of intense constipation, the inablity to digest food properly, and slow physical deterioration. As my health slowly waned, other doctors in the medical profession and otherwise were unable to supply an answer to my problem. After going through the prescribed treatment plan and specific dietary intake suggested by Dr. Lee, I am on the road to recovery.

I am no longer constipated–THANK YOU JESUS–I am properly eliminating on a daily basis, and once again I am eating and digesting more food groups. My health is presently being restored. Finally, I am still a work in progress, but I am anticipating total recovery and I believe that Dr. Lee has been used by God to restore me to optimal health and to maintain a better quality of life.

JUDITH SHAW

Dr. Lee has helped my Bride with not only the physical aspects of wellness but also her mental wellness. She is an unusually spirited professional with an intuitive sense toward her healing instructions.
The main point of it all is; My Bride has gone to some of the best traditional medical professionals with some success. Dr Lee’s complementary medicine is what pushed her over the edge to feel a lot better. She is moving forward and getting better continually with Dr. Lee’s help.
I’m a grateful husband and fan of Dr. Lee. She is a very nice lady, smart woman and very knowledgeable in her field. I recommend her with 5 stars for a reason.

James Haggard

I am a poster child for misdiagnoses. I met Dr. Lee in May of this year. After the first meeting, I knew I found the doctor I had been searching for decades. A very caring doctor and a fabulous person, she is very knowledgeable. 1 1/2 months into her protocol and I am beginning to feel better. Forty years of non-stop diseases (Asthma, Leukemia, AFib, 22 years of GI tract issues, stroke etc.,) and a pharmacy of antibiotics to carry along and she is peeling layers of ailment one step at a time. She is full of energy and always has a beaming smile. In my dealings, I have found her to be honest and sincere. Do not waste your time elsewhere, give her protocol a try she is brilliant; The REAL DOCTOR (my title for her). If you want to reach me as a reference, please contact her office and they will setup a phone call.

Menopause · Depression · Memory Loss · Anxiety · Weight Gain

As I entered MENOPAUSE, my body began to exhibit alarming symptoms. Being tired all the time, I looked like a zombie. My mental state of depression, anxiety, and memory lapses were an indication that my body was not functioning correctly. I was bloated and gaining weight.

My medical doctor did blood work and gave a prescription for an antidepressant to help cope with menopause, which helped some, but the symptoms persisted.

I felt directed by the Lord to consult Dr. Sherin Lee. It was necessary to change and supplement my diet with whole food herbs.

It has been less than a year since I began building my bodies defenses up. Many of the symptoms have subsided and I have energy! As a result of changing my diet and using quality natural skincare products, my skin, which has been blemished for years, is looking more alive and I have lost fifteen pounds!

I thank God for the manifested flourishing health that I am experiencing.
