What our patients are saying…
“I found Dr. Zubiel a few months back when I was seeking alternative help for digestive issues I've been facing for a very long time. After years of doctors telling me I'm just stressed out and throwing pills at me to address only my symptoms, I was so relieved to find someone who listened to what I was saying. She took a deeper dive to get to the root of the problems rather than just addressing my symptoms. The amount of knowledge Dr. Zubiel has is amazing and she comes from a place of experience and empathy. She is a warm hearted soul and makes you feel like you are in great hands. She has found some issues that the doctors told me I was crazy to think I had and I am finally on the road to recovery. I haven't felt this good and like myself again in a long time!”

“I first met Dr. Zubiel as a patient at her chiropractic practice. We spoke at length about some of the health issues I had been experiencing, and she offered up a few ideas which, led me to inquire about her functional health practice. She was empathetic to the chronic pain, fatigue, and digestion issues I had been experiencing and was eager to offer solutions. Once we began working together at Essex Integrative, it was evident that Dr. Zubiel is well versed in a full-body holistic approach to health. She has been offering support during the implementation of a personalized nutrition and supplementation plan. She is exceptionally responsive and offers explanations in simple terms that make following the plan much more manageable. Dr. Zubiel collaborates and creates individualized programs to match the lifestyle goals of her clients. I feel fortunate to have her knowledge and expertise on my side to nail down some chronic issues that other doctors ignored. I’m looking forward to continuing my journey with Dr. Zubiel to enhance my overall health!”
— Chris G.
“I would not be able to explain how much gratitude I feel for the changes that have come into my life after meeting Dr. Zubiel. She is warm, kind, and a true healer. Her approach to my issues was wholesome, we took apart my life and broke down all the things that could have gotten me to the state I was in (barely able to use my muscles). Dr. Zubiel was not intimidated though. She gave it her best shot, and thanks to her I am on a wonderful road toward true health. Forever grateful ❤”
