I came in to test my hormone levels and was told I can increase libido with getting enough sleep and my anxiety is “situational”. While I am a believer in integrative medicine, this felt extraordinarily reductive and placating. I will not return to Doctor Mathen.

He combines medical expertise with a calming and caring demeanor, and his advice makes me leave his office feeling inspired to continue my journey towards better health. He is not your average doctor, and I mean that in the best possible sense.

Unwilling to discuss history and possible causes without getting testing first. I can understand this to a certain extent, however, in order to build a trust and report with a patient, you really need to give them your full time and attention instead of just asking them to fork over money for tests.

For someone seeking a holistic approach to healthcare, Dr. Mathen is the doctor to speak with and learn from. I think the approach to care could be improved by offering a week’s worth of practical recipes following Dr. Weil’s food pyramid. While shopping at Whole Foods Market may not be an option in DeKalb, patients can still find healthy options through their regular grocery store. I think the question could be: how can a patient improve their health with their available resources? While the nutrients may not be at 100% freshness in grocery store products, recipes that maximize the best that’s available would really help the patient eat better. I’ve found these recipes on my own, but it would help if they were provided by the doctor’s office in the patient’s first visit as part of the office’s printed materials.

I already recommended him to my sister and brother in law. They are also looking for more of a holistic doctor. But I warned them about lack of friendliness from the staff.

Nice facilities, alternative medicine. Long wait times, unfriendly nurses, late doctors.

The man rocks, and knows what he is doing! He finds his profession to be a true practice and is looking to help people understand their bodies, and take care of them as medicine is not the best answer. I look forward to every visit.
