Thank you for being such a wonderful doctor and genuinely a kind person. I am so grateful for you.
Thank you for the great mentorship and hands on experience. You have taught me so much, helped me practically, and the freedom and opportunity to grow under your guidance. I couldn't be happier that I signed on with you as you've given me the ability to have more freedom and opportunities than I've had any any other point and it really helped me further develop and become confident. I hope you continue to mentor and teach because you are darn good at it!

I am so thankful for you! I appreciate all you do. Your caring and compassion is amazing. You have a special talent and gift!!
Thank you So much for the care you provided for me and my daughter. I love how you practice - your attention to detail and giving personal/relatable advice.
Words can't express how grateful I am for everything you've done for me and my family. You've helped each of us grow and heal so much in the past few years. We couldn't have done it without you!
We are privileged to have found you and feel blessed for your kindness, caring, and knowledge. Really, everything one needs in a physician. Much thanks for all you have done! Great, compassionate doctors are rare today.
Thank you for all the texts and phone calls when I was in the hospital! Hearing your voice and having a conversation when I was "waking up" helped me in so many ways. I wanted you to know the value of our relationship and I know it will only grow. Thank you for being there for me.
Dr Naidoo, you have been such a tremendous help to me, not only physically but also emotionally and mentally. I really can't thank you enough. I have had amazing transformation in the past year!
I am thankful that God put you in my life, when my functioning was diminishing to an intolerable point. You have really catapulted me forward in my health healing/managing more than any doctor ever has. For decades I knew something was wrong and tried to get answers from many specialists and got nowhere. Thank you for putting everything together for me (and my kids). Because of you, I now have diagnoses, and useful tools in my pocket that I never had before.
You have been the best PCP I've ever had! You have a comfortable, caring, friendly, and supportive manner as well as a great sense of humor. You always greet with a smile and listen attentively at every visit. You address every one of my concerns. You've always been helpful with providing me resources and sharing your own experiences. I've loved that your approach is holistic, not quickly jumping to pharmaceuticals, but redefining lifestyle. You have been a great Doctor and friend!
I'm so grateful that you've always taken the time to walk the path of holistic care and health optimization with me and my family. You always made the time for me, my husband and my boys. You are an amazing provider and educator.
Dr. Naidoo, you are one in a million! You are the best Primary Care Physician I've ever had. You are so compassionate, you always take the time that I need. I know I've received the best care possible from you as you provide me with all my options that are available to me and shares information.
You are an amazing educator and provider and we have been on a tremendous journey together. Today I am 68 years old and I feel the best I have in years!!
I have the utmost gratitude for the help and guidance that you've given me during this season of my life. I look up to you in SO many ways. Your mentorship has played a significant role in building my foundation and securing my passion. Your sacrifice and willingness to help means more to me than you know.
"When I met Dr. Naidoo 3 years ago, I had not had a routine physical exam in several years. I was anxious and depressed. I have been struggling with my weight since I was 5 years old. I cannot remember a time when a doctor did not tell me that I needed to lose weight imminently. This prescriptive advice may help some people to get motivated to lose weight, but not me. The more pressure I felt, the more unsuccessful I was. Sometimes I would lose some weight and then inevitably, I would gain even more back, feeling even more shame when I went to the doctor the next time.
I realized after a few years of avoiding doctor's offices, that I really needed to attend to my health, even if it meant confronting my fears of embarrassment and failure. I was concerned that Dr. Naidoo would be like the other doctors and have the same reaction to my weight and family history, i.e. telling me I had to lose weight immediately but not providing any substantial advice about how to do so.
The day of my appointment, I was a bundle of nerves. My anxiety had built up to the point of overflowing and when I told Dr. Naidoo about myself, I couldn't stop crying. It didn't take more than a few minutes though for me to feel completely comfortable with Dr. Naidoo. I could be honest about myself and what I was going through because I instantly sensed that she was different from any other doctor or healthcare provider I had ever had.
Dr. Naidoo was extremely empathetic, down to earth, and kind. She was reassuring to me in my moments of fear and pain. She told me about her holistic views of health: that mental health, physical health, and social health, among others, are all part of wellness. Where other doctors and providers have been prescriptive and authoritative, Dr. Naidoo was collaborative.
I felt safe and immediately trusted her to help me. She was not going to give up on me, even if I had done so myself. In that first visit, we established a plan for my physical and mental health that included counseling, thought work, especially using positive affirmations to counter my negativistic thinking, and small incremental changes to my diet. She recommended podcasts, books, and community supports for me. I left feeling relieved. My shame melted away and was replaced by a sense of hope that maybe I could be a healthy, happy, well person.
Over the next few years, major life changes as well as persistent depression hindered my progress towards health. Dr. Naidoo never lost faith in me. She took a methodical approach to supporting my wellness, and when we felt it was time, counseled me on medication for my depression as well as alternate treatment options.
Now that my mental health has brightened, I have started to lose weight. All of the work that I have done so far with Dr. Naidoo's unwavering support is resulting in the changes I had hoped for. I feel like myself for the first time in several years. I am happy, optimistic, and ready to take on any challenge that comes my way. Dr. Naidoo is my cheerleader and a huge support.
As a non-binary, transmasculine person, there have been times when I have been hesitant to discuss my gender in healthcare settings, even though it is an integral part of who I am and my wellness. I feared and was met by a reluctance by healthcare providers to respect me and the journey I was on to discover more about my gender: but not with Dr. Naidoo. She took my experience as a trans person at face value, did not question my identity, and when I asked, provided me with the necessary referrals to begin the process of medical transition. She uses my name and pronouns consistently and encourages me to continue my journey in a way that makes me feel healthy and whole.
I realize that wellness is a lifelong pursuit and that I still have work to do on my health. But, I am confident that I can meet my goals with Dr. Naidoo's guidance and support. I highly recommend Dr. Naidoo to anyone who is looking for a fresh start with their health."
