As any mother would do I look at my daughter lovingly knowing just how much happiness and joy she has brought to my life. Children are the best gift you can ever receive. There is no way you can imagine your life without them in it. For me that is verybitter sweet, my child was born because of naturopathic medicine and if I did what the traditional MD's told me to do she would not have been born. When I was 19 I suffered from a dermoid ovarian cyst which I had surgery on. After the surgery was over the left ovary could never be found again. I suffered many complications from this procedure which could not be treated using conventional medicine. I was always nauseas, in constant pain, and unable to do the things I used to. Many months after the surgery I began practicing the blood type diet which helped a lot with the pain and nausea I was suffering from at the time. About a month after I was on the diet I went back to my MD for my yearly check up. That is when my doctor told me I had another cyst on my right ovary she asked if I was able to drive myself to the hospital after my appointment because she was going to arrange for me to have surgery later that day.She wanted to completely remove my right ovary and have my eggs frozen so I could have children in the future. But removing the vital female parts is not a simple and as easy as my physician made it sound. It only took her fifteen minutes to diagnose me before she said to have surgery. She gave me no other options and said nothing else would work to make me better. Surgery had to be done there was no other way. But I know there had to be another way there right course of action to be taken and there must be a better way. So, I told my doctor I was not going straight to the hospital for surgery there had to be another way, and I was going to find it. She looked at me like I was crazy and simply let me walk out the door so I could find myself another treatment.
I did find another way that was the first time I had meet Dr. Pryce. She listened, she cared,she understood, and she know there was another way a better way. This is when I became a believer and a follower of Naturopathic medicine and the blood type diet. I spent several hours with Dr. Pryce at my first appointment I had never felt so calm and well cared for at a doctor’s office. Dr. Pryce gave me the care that all patients deserve. She made me feel like a person not just like another client. She had a vested interest in making me better, and she did. One month later I was back in my traditional doctor’s office, the one who wanted to remove my right ovary. I needed to get an ultrasound to see what was going on with my right ovary and if the cyst was still there. My doctor looked at me with an interested and puzzling gaze and she began to explain to me the results of the ultrasound. She said the cyst on your right ovary is gone. I said what? It's gone, she repeated yes it is. She began to ask me what I did and how I did it. I essentially cured myself without surgery and without listening to my doctor. I told her I went to Dr. Pryce and did what she said to do and apparently it worked.
Dr. Pryce has changed my life forever. I could not imagine what my life would be like now if I had never met her. The best thing in my life my daughter is because of her. If I never met with Dr. Pryce I would not have my daughter or the happiness and health I enjoy today. Dr. Pryce has been a true miracle in my life and the lives of all of her patients.

"This past summer I began to have some serious physical difficulties. I am a 48 year old female. Other than a car accident in 2004, I have lived a life fairly free of pain. In 2008 I had to have a complete hysterectomy. It completely changed my life and my body.
Because the ovaries are such a big part of how our bodies work, I began to suffer problems in the rest of my endocrine system. I started having big fluctuations in my thyroid, pancreas and adrenal glands. My condition worsened in the fall of 2009. I was diagnosed with a bevy of negative things. I am not drawn to Western Medicine, but I know that there is some prudence there. I live in Athens Georgia and couldn’t find the right Dr here. A friend went on line and found Dr. Meka Samm Pryce for me.
Dr. Pryce has become pivotal in my recovery. Her approach is far from the average, especially in regards to communication. She has made herself available to me by phone, text, e-mail and in person. She is well educated and experienced. I am due to have follow-up blood work done in the next few months, however, I can tell already that I am well again. I suffered exhaustion on an extreme level. My skin had turned gray, and was very dry. I have energy now, and rosy cheeks and my body is no longer dry. My mental clarity is back.
The Master Cleanse did an enormous amount for me in all aspects of my life. I had held onto childhood trauma and fear. The cleanse took that away. The SWAMI book with the list of foods that are best for me has been wonderful. I no longer suffer swelling in my belly after meals. There are many items that are good for my body and so it makes meal planning quite easy and pleasant. The vitamins and supplements she prescribed for me have been incredible.
In short, please try working with Dr. Pryce if you are feeling imbalanced. There is a lot of work to do on your side, but believe me the response from your body tells it all. I am a changed person because of the work she is doing. I have a new lease on life and a bright future. Before Dr. Pryce, I was facing a life of medication and disability. The world is my oyster once again."

"I am so relieved and happy to have found Dr. Samm. I was diagnosed with Lupus 2 years ago and was plagued by fatigue and overwhelmed by the regimen of steroids and immunosuppressants yet not feeling better. I had one consultation with Dr Samm and was amazed by her empathy, knowledge base, and understanding of what I was going through. I started treatment with her and now I am off of all of my traditional medicine, have lost weight, more energetic and feel better than I have in 5 years and we are just getting started on my full treatment plan. I am grateful and blessed to have Dr Samm as my doctor"

"I had been guessing for a long time what I felt | needed for my body. I'm quite healthy and take great care of myself but didn't have the objective data to back up my suspicions. After Working with Dr. Samm and having her order the right blood work for me, I was able to understand concretely what is going on currently in my body. With that data she was able to recommend quality supplements that My body needed! No guesses! Straight facts! Thank you Dr. Samm!”

Dr. Pryce was a great help to my husband during his cancer treatments. The variety of complementary treatments she used to augment his conventional cancer treatments allowed him to remain healthy, active, and productive through the whole process. Our family is so grateful to have found her!

The foot soak helped. I was so freaking tired when I came home I could hardly move. I slept ok. It did help me sleep and it did have a calming effect on me.
When I woke up, I really listened to my body. Internally, I felt like there was this "agitation". It wasn't emotional agitation, but some sort of energetic agitation. This energy is what is keeping me up at night or preventing me from getting a good night's sleep. I could feel it inside my body.
So I made a quest appointment for tomorrow morning to have blood drawn. Then I went to the email you sent on EMF. Wow. I was absolutely floored! The side effects listed and the testimonials of the people who were experiencing the side effects of EMF were astounding! Lack of sleep or insomnia, HBP, fatigue, restlessness, nausea....burning muscles!!!!
When I went to the hospital ER a while ago, as I told you, the MDs thought I was crazy when I told them there is something going on with me and electronic equipment. I'm not nuts. If I turn on the TV or laptop, and feel a warm tingling on my face and start to feel hot and nauseous, there is something going on. I have been dealing with this/these nasty feelings for a very long time. Now, I have a possible answer as to why I might be feeling so horrible.
When I woke up today, I was feeling really lethargic, but not "gunked up" inside. I attributed the feeling to the foot detox. Which is fine. My body is/was cleansing itself. But the minute I went to the computer and looked at this EMF stuff and the quest appointment site, my whole body started to not only hurt, but I felt "corrupted" again...like there is something like a wave length or radiation or something interfering with my body's energy and degrading it.
So I ordered a couple different EMF products to try to see how I feel after using them. If I didn't find that one final brochure you had in the office to set up a consult, I wouldn't have come in to see you and get those email links to those websites dealing with EMFs. I may have been stuck in this horrible place for a very long time not knowing how to resolve it.
I don't want to count my chickens before they are hatched, but wow...I may finally have a huge answer to why I feel so bad.
Just wanted to let you know
Thanks,
Jeff L. Patient
Thank you for your time today, you gave me faith that we will finally find the key to resolving these issues that have been weighing on me for more than a decade. Your professionalism, care, and concern are greatly appreciated, and something that I have not received from the conventional medical doctors I have seen in the past. Looking forward to getting back the results and working towards a resolution.

You’d think as a physician, I’d know all I need to know about healthy eating, healthy lifestyle and the impact those have on your ability to feel good. Indeed, I counsel my patients on those very things every day. But when I fell ill myself from migraines caused by an obscure surgical diagnosis and Candida overgrowth, I realized I had no idea. Even more importantly, I realized the other conventional physicians who were caring for me also had no idea how to guide me through the extra level of nutritional care that I needed to get healthy. It just wasn’t something we were taught in medical school.
Enter Dr. Samm Pryce to the rescue! Her naturopathic training made her uniquely qualified to understand both the surgical and holistic aspects of my needs. She crafted a pre and post-surgical plan for me based on my blood type, diagnosis and dietary needs. I have to say I was initially very resistant when she told me I’d have to go a while without bread, fruit and dairy (I mean how DOES one eat breakfast?), but I trust her, and thank goodness I do. I have been following her recommendations to the tee, and my health is all the proof I need.
Each day I feel myself not only getting back to the healthy self I was before I fell ill, but getting even healthier. For that, I thank Dr. Pryce and her unique Family Medicine-Naturopathic skill set.
