I have a weak immune system and various allergic responses to toxins and pollutants, which manifest themselves as an array of symptoms attributable to a number of causes. It was only when I was sent to UCLA Rheumatology that all my symptoms started to make sense in a systemic kind of way, due to Dr. Taylor's professional grasp of my situation and her clear explanations. Understanding what exactly was wrong with me and why has lowered my anxiety level considerably and encouraged me to believe in my power to lead myself toward a healthier state through appropriate nutrition and medication, occupational therapy, an active lifestyle, and belief in my body's power to heal itself with the help of my conscious mind and the healthcare tools Dr. Taylor provided me with. Thank you, Dr. Taylor!
