Del Mar Integrative Medicine

Dr Kremer and staff are extraordinary! Very Professional and Knowledgeable. The team works with integrity and care. I was so impressed I’ve now sent several friends. The offerings are impressive. What began as a few simple injections, has now blossomed into several other services. I look forward to the potential of using them for many more of my medical and cosmetic needs.
Amazing to have so many options under one roof.
Dr Kremer takes the time to listen, understand my needs/​desired results. I feel comfortable knowing he has vast experience behind him. He believes «less is more», Well worth it!

I’m so happy I found Dr. Kraemer, he and his staff are always friendly polite and helpful. Not only is he a great primary MD, as an osteopath he does chiropractic adjustments, which means I can use my health insurance for my adjustments rather than paying out of pocket for chiropractic.

this is my first 1 star review but wanted to warn others: I bought the groupon for botox (first mistake). I explained to the Dr. that I have had problems with eye lid droop before and he probably wouldn’t need to use it all. Not only did he use it all, he wanted me to purchase more. Now my eyelid is sagging over my eye restricting my vision. He knew I was upset when I left but I got no follow up call. He wanted my email for his newsletter only instead of using it for customer satisfaction. I see others have had similar experiences and stupid me should have checked this before I went. I will never stray from my normal place again. Lesson learned.

My esthetician, who is one of the best in San Diego, recommended Lori Merold’s plasma protein treatment for rejuvenating wrinkles and sagging skin. She said she’s seen a few of her clients try it and they were all VERY happy.
I had deep nasolabial folds on both sides of my face, between my nose and mouth. I decided to try the protein plasma treatment.
Lori draws your own blood, separating out the plasma, which has major healing and regenerative properties. In one session, she injects your OWN plasma back into your wrinkled areas, like botox. Wow! Does it work. It even gets better over time.
I really don’t understand why people would continue to use Botox when this technology is available and completely safe!

Went back a second time and had Dr. Kramer. He tried to upsell me and told me I could use this filler and that filler. I’m pretty young and people tell me how much younger I look than my age — all the time. So I was a little put off by this. I found him to be unprofessional. They upped the price a lot and I had no way of knowing that until I got there. He doesn’t seem to know how to use botox. It dripped all over my face. I won’t go back there.

I used Groupon for 20 units. I knew it could be a bit too much, because 15 units always done a perfect job for me. Dr. Kremer asked me what I am looking for, I asked him to go over the forehead lightly. On the end all of the Botox went right over my eyebrows. 12 days later I still have line between my eyebrows, my forehead making funny movement and my brows are trying to cover my eyes now. My eyelid is covered by my eyebrow now. Somehow my cheeks now melting over the corners of my mouth. My face is trying to escape :(It’s drooping bad.:(I look scary in the morning, like I was drinking heavily the night before :(
He overused the botox over my eyebrows, instead of usually 8units over eyebrows and 7 between the brows and a bit on the forehead-​he used all 20 over the eyebrows.
Please find yourself another doctor if you don’t want your face on the floor :(
and .wait… the doc said to call and comeback if I need more… for correction.

The building is a tad hard to find but the office is nice and so is the staff. I am giving this place one star bc of their business ethic. I purchased a Groupon for 20 units of botox and I only use 16 usually so I thought 20 would more than do it for me. I have been getting botox for 6 years and know what 16 units looks like and I feel like a got 10? I still have moment in my forehead and wrinkles.
The part that upsets me the most is that I felt botox dripping down my forehead. In other words my money falling off of my face and not going into it. When we finished he said we went a tad over. At first I was like oh how nice of him and then when he handed a bill of $ 130 I said that I already paid through the Groupon. He said that he used 34 units and the bill was for the remaining 14 units. THIRTY FOUR UNITS!!! I usually get ¹⁄₃ of that. Super shisty way of stealing people’s money. Not okay at all, not even a warning «Hey I am going to inject more in you».
This part of my experience is kind of caddy, so I apologize if you roll your eyes, but at the end of my treatment and rubbed argon oil all over my face. And when I say all over my face I mean it took my heavy eye make OFF and it was all in my hair. I had stuff I had to do that day and made my appointment in the morning so that I could do my errands. I had to go home and shower because my face could show someones reflection in it.
Honestly save your money and dont go here. The staff is very friendly but it doesn’t make up for them ripping you off. Horrible business ethic

I have gone in for 3 separate appointments and have another scheduled. Lori is fantastic, explains procedures well and will never try to over sell Botox. Like the other reviewer, I have gone to many med spas over the years and have had many doctors suggest twice the amount that Lori suggested. She honored the groupon price if I felt I needed more later and has always (if possible) shown me the lasers and platelets that she was intending to use. I have brought other friends and we all love the friendly staff and clean environment. I travel 75 miles just to see Lori and will continue to do so

I was lucky to find Del Mar IM thru a friend who goes here. It was my first experience with Botox and Lori made me so comfortable… she answered all my questions without hesitation… it’s nice to not go into a stuffy office! !!
I have since been back for other appts… my most recent was to have Lori look at a ‘fatcell’ or lymphoma on my forhead… it was a very large bump which I have had for many years and after being told by numerous docs that they had to cut it out I was scared to remove it… Lori looked at it and gave me some injections to dissolve it… within 15mins it started to reduce in size… within hours it was half the size… when I woke up this morning my forhead was clear… Lori is a miracle worker… will definitely b back to see her. thanks Lori!

Great place that is the full real deal in options for care. They will get you in fast if you need it and they take the time to answer your questions.

This place is whack. Saw a special for Botox so promptly scheduled appt. I ended up having to get it re-​done somewhere else because it didn’t kick in as it should have. Also, the nurse randomly said she could show me this great laser, so she zapped a little spider vein on my left cheek which hurt like hell. I mean my whole body convulsed as she did it. Not only did the vein not go away, it burned me and left pigmentation that remains 5 months later… despite other skin treatments including several chemical peels. For a «medical» facility, they should know better than to be so irresponsible. Avoid this place like the plague.

Worst experience ever. I purchased 20 units of Botox. It’s the amount I always get and am always happy with the results. With that being said, I know what 20 units of Botox feels like and looks like. I could tell right away there was not 20 units used on me. I usually get it between my brows (number 11s) it’s referred to. Dr. Kremer convinced me to use some of it over my brows for a lift. I decided to try it. He started over the right brow. I kept feeling the Botox drip on my skin. Which meant it’s not going in. He then did the 11s and this time the Botox dropped into my left eye. When I said something he made a joke but didn’t care. Never gave me tissue to get it out. And it started burning. He then started over the left brow. Again dripping Botox. He then asked if I minded if he used 6 more units. I kind of hesitated because I was confused why he needed more before he finished that brow. He said to balance me out. Hmmm because he wasted 6 units in my eye and elsewhere. When he was done I had to jump up and find a tissue myself. He walked me out where I was charged another $ 39 for the extra units. So besides that whole awful experience I do not have the results I always have in the past. I suspect the Botox is diluted. The amount of feeling I have in the injection sites does not feel right.
I called the clinic and spoke with the receptionist. She wanted me to call Dr. Kremer myself but I decided I didn’t want to because I would never let him touch me again.
At this point I will see who I can formally complain to. No one else should give them their money!

I visited Del Mar Integrative Medicine as a new patient last week & met with Dr. Arnold Kramer whom I found to be professional, knowledgeable & gracious. I had purchased a Groupon for Botox but after discussing other options & having my questions answered to my satisfaction, I was able to apply the voucher towards another product.
My experience was excellent & I would recommend this office & Dr. Kramer without hesitation.
I also found the staff to be pleasant & efficient, putting me at ease immediately.
