Brunsvold Nancy J MD Internal Medicine

I saw Dr. Brunsvold for many years and was overall satisfied. However, recently I went to see her because I noticed some specific weight gain in areas I hadn’t experienced before and chronic heartburn. She told me that I needed to see a nutrition counselor and lose weight. I have overall healthy eating habits and work out 5 – 6 times per week, so it didn’t make sense to me that I would have this type of weight gain or chronic heartburn. I got a second opinion and discovered that I have the worst case of h. pylori she had EVER seen in her entire career. In addition, she dug a little deeper and discovered that my thyroid is very very low functioning. With some appropriate treatment, I’m on the road to recovery. I’m beyond disappointed that Dr. Brusvold chalked my symptoms up to being overweight. It was an easy «diagnosis» and it was wrong and has severely impacted my health and well being. I would not recommend this physician.
