Dr. Sullivan Testimonials s
Smoking Cessation

Everyone knows how hard quitting smoking can be. My boy friend has been smoking cigarettes for many years. He had tried numerous times to quit over five years and nothing worked. Dr. Sullivan was able to get him to quit smoking cigarettes within a few short weeks without going through any withdrawal symptoms. We were all amazed. He has not smoked since. - Tami Feit, November 2006

Twenty years of smoking, I have dreaded quitting smoking for years, so I kept putting it off. When I quit with Dr .Sullivan's treatments, it was rough for like a day or two, and then I didn't really think about it at all. - Jerry Basler, Today Local News. March 22, 2006

Cosmetics

Dr. Sullivan is amazing! I underwent an initial treatment of 10 sessions in 5 weeks. By the third week there were noticeable changes, and friends were asking what I was doing. I have improved muscle tone (less sagging) in the face and neck, improved the tone and quality of skin and reduced puffiness. Fine lines have filled in, and deeper lines greatly improved. One of the most dramatic results was obtained in reducing the scar tissue on my jaw. It is greatly reduced and barely perceptible. My facial coloring has improved, and I feel younger, calmer and less worn looking.

I am in my early 60’s and felt the need for personal physical enhancement. After consulting with plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and laser M.D.s, I elected to seek treatment from Dr. Sullivan. This decision was not based solely on financial concerns, however, the cost of the invasive, aggressive treatments ranged from $8,000.00 to $25,000.00, with long recovery periods and no promise of success. I have friends that have had less than satisfactory results.

The treatments are relaxing including the healing balms, mask and towels. The needles are fine, and not painful. The overall experience parallels any spa treatment that I’ve had, and provides a wonderful opportunity for meditation or de-stressing.

I am amazed with the results, and have to confess that my lifestyle has contributed to the aging process. Results will differ with each individual, but I’ve got years of “mileage” and “deferred maintenance” to deal with. I’ve started my second package of treatments and know that I may need monthly tune-ups.

Dr. Sullivan is engaging, knowledgeable, holds the highest credentials, and has incredible results in all aspects of her practice. She is a dedicated doctor that makes her patients feel that their opinions matter. - Jo Anne Cech

Dermatology

In October of last year (2008), I became quite ill.  The preliminary diagnosis from two different dermatologists that I saw was acute dermatitis also known as eczema.  This is not the first time I had this but the last time it was this severe was about 15 years ago. 

At night, I couldn't sleep well because it felt as if I was being pricked from the inside by needles all over.  And my nerves were so frayed - I felt like I was buzzing on the inside and couldn't calm down.

I am so happy about this treatment and so grateful for Dr. Sullivan care and insights.  She is very thorough and really takes time with me.  She listens carefully and responds by making up the remedy exactly right for me ands make any necessary changes in the treatments to adapt to my improving condition. I believe, not only rid me of the rashes completely but nourish and replenish my skin to look even better than before and give me more energy to again be in the world, happy, and not a recluse. - Julie Adler

Pain Management

My pain is gone. I can walk straight. I can walk without pain. I can walk further each time. You make me very happy! - Lillian Westcott, Oceanside, CA

I was prescribed Celebrex for arthritis of the back and neck. I had been on the medication for over two years. The price for the Celebrex was $150 per month. The price of the medication and my interest in going "pill free" drove me to seek an alternative. A friend recommended acupuncture, as it had worked for her. After two sessions with Dr. Sullivan, I started feeling a decrease in pain. Now, I forget that my movements were ever restricted by my aches and pains. I'm off my medication. Thank you, thank you, thank you! - Geri Maestas, Oceanside CA

I'm going to die- everyone is- but before I went to Dr. Sullivan and received the treatments, I wanted to. Now, I experience deep sleep and when I awake, a significant amount of the pain is gone. - Tom Hill, Today Local News. March 22, 2006

After 15 years of shoulder pain, three to five treatments, I woke up one morning and just wasn't hurting any more. - Rocco Lovetere, Today Local News. March 22, 2006

Cardiac

Before seeing Dr. Sullivan, I had been diagnosed with: Arterial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia, PAC, PVC, right bundle branch blockage, leaky valve, enlarged heart, aggressive contracture, and multiple murmurs, which were worsening. I suffered blackouts. In February '07, my cardiologist inserted cardiac stints and put me on a very toxic drug, amordarion. It is the drug of last resort. My blackouts continued. The ameriodarion caused my lungs and cornea of my eyes to deteriorate. I felt horrible and many times felt like I'd rather have died. Since seeing Dr. Sullivan, all symptoms have decreased. With my cardiologist's supervision, I was able to get off the amordarion and have been off now for six months. Two weeks ago, I saw my cardiologist and he said: "You're doing so well, I don't need to see you for another year." Yesterday I saw my pulmonologist, and he said: "I wish my lungs sound as good as yours...unless something else comes up, you don't need to come back." Today, I feel great! I'm free of pain and I can't remember the last time I had a blackout.

I began seeing Dr. Sullivan ten years ago. I had been diagnosed with congestive heart failure. The number got down to 20. They said: "Below 20, you're dead." They also said I had angina, and a whole lot of other fancy stuff. My heart skipped like a flat stone over a smooth lake. Today, they say that number is back up to 36. I play golf twice a week. I can't remember the last time that my heart skipped. My cardiologist said: "You're 88 going on 70." And, I feel great!

Dementia/Alzheimer's

My husband was diagnosed with Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, Parkinson's and Dementia. They often used the term Alzheimer's. The 86 missions he flew in the South Pacific as a Marine Fighter Pilot in WWII, Bougainville, Guadalcanal and Manila left him with many scars. He would have times of incoherent ravings during the hallucinations from the PTSD. Besides that, he hadn't spoken in 5 months. After two treatments with Dr. Meggin Sullivan, he was speaking in full appropriate sentences. The hallucinations continued, but the lucid moments became more clear and lasted longer. My dear husband could carry on a conversation. He could remember stories of the past and laugh. A surgical accident at the local hospital cut short his recovery. But for several months I had him back and I'm so very grateful Dr. Sullivan.

Knees - Baker Cyst

Before I came to see Dr. Sullivan my knee would swell every day. I was diagnosed with a Baker Cyst. I was painful and felt unstable as if it would go out. After several treatments, the swelling went away and has not returned. It like magic!

- Terry Bower, Vista, CA

Diabetes

My doctor gave me a diagnosis of Pre-Diabetes. I was watching my diet and still my blood sugar was 118. I then went to see Dr. Sullivan. With her treatments my blood sugar dropped to 96. I did nothing else differently. My doctor says I am no longer pre-diabetic.

- Karen Campbell, Vista CA.

I began seeing Dr. Sullivan for a wrist problem. During the time of treatment, I noticed my blood sugar came down. It was in the low 200's, now it's in the low 170's. I've been working on it for a while and it stayed in the 200 ranges. All of a sudden it's dropping. I did nothing else different.

Trigeminal Neuralgia

The pain was excruciating. I had it for five weeks and both my doctor and dentist said I'd have it for life. The sheer act of speaking, eating or brushing my teeth would set it off. After one treatment with Dr. Sullivan, I was 50% better. After 4 treatments, I feel an occasional twinge. I'm Delighted! I really think it was a Miracle!

- Helen Webb, Oceanside, CA

Glaucoma

I've been having problems with eye pressure for the past several years. In December of 2009, my eyes were checked and my left eye pressure went up to 24 mm HG. By June 2010, the pressure in my left eye was up to 35mm Hg. I had been taking my medication and it still kept climbing. After that, I went to see Dr. Sullivan. Four weeks later, my pressure fell to 19mm Hg. in my left eye and, it has stayed down since (9 months).
