Multiple Sclerosis
“The Vreeland Clinic saved my life. Thanks to their knowledge, guidance and support, I have been in remission from relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) for an entire decade now.
When I came to them ten years ago, the MS had progressed to the point where I was being hospitalized and confined to a wheelchair every 2-3 months; I would then have to go on a lengthy dose of intravenous steroids and consequent rehabilitation to learn how to walk again.
When I came to The Vreeland Clinic, I was pretty hopeless. That immediately changed when they confidently told me that they could help me. They designed an individualized treatment plan for my body, including diet, neurological exercises and supplements, to help my body metabolize certain nutrients that I could not metabolize on my own.
I have become stronger and healthier with their help and direction. Now, I am a runner... something I never could have imagined doing a decade ago! From wheelchair to runner... now, THAT'S exceptional healthcare!”

“I was diagnosed with MS sixteen years ago when I was 30 years old. The neurologist at the hospital told me at that time that there was nothing that they could do for me since I was not "sick enough." They told me that the "mega drugs" available had side effects that would be worse than my symptoms. I knew absolutely, without a doubt, that while they could not help me, alternative therapies were available and that I only needed to find the right doctor to help facilitate my healing. Enter Dr. Vreeland stage right.
I knew immediately upon meeting Dr. Vreeland that he was a true "healer." He made me a partner in my healing, giving me information about my health and physiology and looked at me as a whole person and not just a diagnosis. Our journey began when he put the diagnosis aside and explored what was happening specifically in my body and what therapies and supplements I needed to support my healing. I've always trusted his advice, knowing that he not only was on the cutting edge of new and advanced research, but also that he was well-versed and knowledgeable in mainstream approaches and technology.
His manner has been direct and honest when needed, but he is also warm and positive and this has always filled me with hope when I've felt unsettled by the symptoms. Dr. Vreeland has educated me over the years about proper nutrition, environmental effects on our health and has taken an active role in advocating for healthcare reform. When I come for a visit I know that I am not only getting the best care possible, but also that he is inspired by his work to make a difference in the world.
I am now in my mid-40s and I am healthier now than I was 16 years ago. I attribute my vibrant health largely to the guidance I've received from Dr. Vreeland. In partnership with the Vreeland Clinic I am able to not only manage my condition for which I'd once been told nothing could be done, but also maintain and improve my general well-being. My gratitude to the Vreeland Clinic is boundless.”
