"Dr. Smoot is a a nurturing, smart and effective care giver. I am most impressed by her ability to listen to me as a patient, ask questions and then provide treatment that is in accordance with accurate diagnosis. She is adept at using traditional methods for healing as well as new and cutting edge approaches. I fully entrust my health in her hands!” -B.D.

"Dr. Smoot takes a whole person approach to care giving, not just treating my symptoms but helping to create an individualized health care plan to address my concerns.  My experience with Dr. Smoot left me feeling understood, cared for and confident in her knowledge. She is always accommodating and warm, exactly the right fit for my 5 month old daughter and I. If you are looking for a natural and grounded health care alternative for you family, I would highly recommend seeing Dr. Smoot." -Q.B.

"I have had previous injuries to my neck, so chronic pain, pinched nerves or muscle spasms often happen. During a recent hike at Smith Rock, I slipped down a scaly portion of the trail, making my head whip back and instantly inflamed. As a recommendation, I went to Dr. Smoot. With much intention, she listened, asked questions, and informed me of her methods. I was able to experience her knowledge of Neural Therapy, a treatment that in my case would involve several points of my neck and shoulder, where the medicine would have lasting results up to a week or two. What?? Why are we using this technique all the time for injury?? The pain was isolated and dissolved quickly by that evening. I was so impressed, I decided to see her the following day for a full body adjustment. It has been over a week, my neck has not spasmed or locked up, I have been able to fully return to my job where as an aesthetician, I use my arms everyday, all day! Her menu is complied of several recognizable methods used by naturopathic medicine, but I was impressed to be introduced to something new, that had such a powerful healing outcome. Dr. Smoot gave me one of the most effective treatments I have experienced for pain. Not to mention, Jade Naturopathic Medicine is a very clean and organized room which resides next to a river and the sound of water rushing instantly eases you into this healing space. I will continue using her as one of my primary health practitioners!" -K.S.

"They do an exceptional job at attending to the clients needs. Dr. Smoot was very helpful. I have been plagued with horrific allergies for almost the last 20 years trying many different remedies/approaches, even sinus surgery and nothing helped. That has all changed since I've been treated by Dr. Smoot. I highly recommend to anyone wishing to heal themselves to use these guys!" -P.F.

"Dr. Smoot is a very caring and knowledgeable doctor. She really takes her time to get to know you and your history, performs a very thorough exam and then decides on a course of action. I look forward to working with her as my primary doctor." -R.H.

"Thank you Dr. Smoot! After walking way too many miles with improper footwear, on my first vacation day in Redondo Beach, you saved my vacation. My lower back pain was excruciating! Dr. Smoot with your treatment and knowledge of neural therapy the pain was gone within 30 minutes. Your care and concern for me as a walk-in patient was so comforting and I felt of genuine interest to you. It is with complete confidence that I will travel from outside of the L.A. area and entrust my full healthcare to you." -J.H.
