Testimonials
Originally, I was referred to Dr. Allyn by a friend who also had unresolved medical issues. Upon my meeting with Dr. Allyn, I knew that she cared. She made me feel very comfortable and asked me a variety of questions that would help her to understand my specific health concerns. I found Dr. Allyn to be a great listener, compassionate and experienced with evaluating my situation. She is easily accessible and willing to understand and process her patient’s concerns. I would encourage others to seek her care.

It is always a breath of fresh air to meet an individual who displays a high degree of integrity, and Dr. Allyn Krieger-Fiedler is one of those individuals. Natural healing occurs naturally as a result of Allyn’s integrity, naturopathic medical training, and listening skills; all the patient has to do is follow her direction.

In the 20 years that I have known Dr. Allyn Krieger-Fiedler, she has always been a kind and caring person. So when she decided to pursue the Naturopathic health care field, I knew that this would carry over in her work. She always takes the time to understand your needs, never rushes you and gives you information to read so you have better knowledge of your issues. Unlike medical doctors, Dr. Allyn tries to help you solve your ailments without drugs that could do more harm than good. With proper diet and nutrition she will help you on your road to recovery. Thanks Dr. Allyn.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Krieger-Fiedler’s for several years now. She brings to her practice of medicine a wonderful blend of knowledge, compassion and innovation.
In addition, every patient of Dr. Krieger-Fiedler’s is treated as an individual, not a number. Hers is not the traditional “cookie-cutter” medicine patients so frequently see in health care today.

Having moved 35 times in my lifetime, I've been under the care of more medical professionals than I care to count. Dr. Allyn Krieger-Fiedler has been my primary care physician since November 30, 1998. There isn't any question in my mind that one will not find a more caring, thorough or conscientious doctor anywhere.
When I listen to my friends and family members talk about the difficulties communicating with their doctors or nurses, I am doubly grateful for Dr. Allyn's willingness to schedule a telephone call with me when necessary or provide e-mail assistance.
With more than 325 pages of documentation in my file, I am not an easy patient. My protocol has changed dozens of times over the years. Yet, if a question arises about an earlier event, Dr. Allyn is always able to retrieve the information quickly because she keeps meticulous records.
If you are considering alternative solutions to your health issues, I believe there is an excellent possibility you will be able to get to the bottom of those challenges under the care of Dr. Krieger-Fiedler.

Thyroid Issues:
For years I had an enlarged thyroid with a fluid filled cyst. Although my thyroid functioned normally the enlargement sometimes made it difficult to swallow and constantly pressed on my windpipe. An endocrinologist put me on Synthroid to reduce the swelling but it had very little effect, plus I knew it depleted calcium. After my thyroid was aspirated, the size only went down about 30%. At that point the doctor recommended that I have it surgically altered, either reduced in size or completely removed.
Then I found Dr. Allyn. I especially liked her Naturopathic approach of determining the cause and not just treating the symptom. She suspected I had an iodine deficiency, and the tests she performed proved she was right. She put me on an iodine supplement and the results have been very positive. My throat looks and feels “normal” again. Thanks, Dr. Allyn.

Dr. Allyn helped me enormously. After worsening under the care of a highly credentialed, well known western M.D., my mother suggested I try a Naturopath. I had no idea what to expect. The experience changed my life forever. Not only was Dr. Allyn quickly able to put her finger on the medical problem, but she was also able to identify several other contributing factors that were aggravating the situation. The treatments that she offered and the lifestyle changes that she encouraged were natural and in synch with my body. With Dr. Allyn’s help I was gradually able to get off of all thyroid medication and rebalance my endocrine system. I am now completely well and healthier than I ever would have imagined possible, thanks to Dr. Allyn.

After 2 years, numerous doctors and a trip to the Mayo Clinic, I found Dr. Krieger-Fiedler. I battled with a severe thyroid issue that I could never seem to get medicated properly. Dr. Krieger-Fiedler ran much more extensive tests and put me on a natural alternative to traditional thyroid medicines that have been working wonders for the last 2 years. She is without a doubt the most knowledgeable physician that I have met regarding thyroid problems. She is caring, compassionate and readily available to her patients. She has changed my life!

I have been Dr. Krieger-Fiedler’s patient since 1998, when she resolved my debilitating heavy menstrual bleeding problem. A gynecologist wanted to cut out my uterus but I thought there must be a less drastic option and Dr. Krieger-Fiedler had it. After testing me for food sensitivities, bacteria and yeast overgrowth, she put me on a protocol of diet, nutritional supplements and natural remedies. After 4 months I was felling better so I was not faithful with the diet.
Recently, I was suffering with extreme fatigue, depression, acid reflux, migraines, joint pain and weight gain. Dr. Krieger-Fiedler ordered a complete thyroid panel which showed that I had an autoimmune thyroid disease called Hashimoto’s. Her next step was to figure out why antibodies were attacking my thyroid. Past experience prompted Dr. Krieger-Fiedler to investigate whether or not gluten sensitivity may be the reason for the hyperactive immune system. Further testing confirmed her suspicions. I began a protocol of thyroid medication and a gluten free diet. All my symptoms soon started to resolve. After 8 months I was able to shed 30 pounds without starving myself. It is amazing to me how all of my symptoms were linked to diet. I have felt better in the past year than I have in the past decade. Therefore, I will not stray from my diet in the future. It just isn’t worth the suffering.

Dr. Allyn Krieger-Fiedler’s approach to her patient’s care is personal, comprehensive and responsive. She truly cares for her patients’ health and determining the core reason for a particular health problem.
Dr. Krieger-Fiedler has been the reason why I enjoy good health in my sixties. A few years ago I was not feeling well…lethargic and no energy. She determined that the problem was due to my low immune system, and immediately set forth in pumping that up. With supplements and diet, she had me begin a protocol with emphasis on my having a more balanced gut with good bacteria, rather than bad bacteria. It was successful and I felt like a new person.
I was again feeling very tired some years later and she determined that I was hypothyroid. I began a regimen of natural thyroid supplements and I’m on top of the world again. She has gained a reputation of being extremely knowledgeable in the area of thyroid hormone treatment. She has treated me successfully for a variety of symptoms, from estrogen replacement to clearing up a urinary tract infection, all with natural products. Although she uses natural protocols, alongside her treatment, she uses imaging and lab tests frequently to help her with her analysis of a problem.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Krieger-Fiedler. She is extremely knowledgeable, has a sharp and analytical intellect and is a “natural” in the Naturopathic field.

My name is Tami and I am a flight attendant for our local airline. I have been flying for 13 years. I thought I was in permanent jet lag. I had no energy. I had huge sugar cravings and was over weight.
I met Dr. Allyn at an Iodine seminar that my sister was attending and I talked to her briefly, telling her I wanted to get healthy from the inside out and she thought she could help me and gave me her business card. I called her a couple of months later and we set up an appointment. She ordered several tests and after we got the results back she found an overgrowth of candida albicans and klebsiella pneumonia and no growth of lactobacillus. She also found that I was very low on iodine.
Dr. Allyn put together a custom prescription to treat the overgrowth of pathogens and to correct the lack of lactobacillus and iodine. It included a detox diet for a few weeks, continued by a yeast free diet following that and treating the pathogens. I had to have an ultrasound of my thyroid before I started taking the iodine supplement. That revealed some spots on my thyroid. Dr. Allyn said not to worry. The iodine should take care of that. We continue to monitor my thyroid with ultrasounds.
I then started the program that she had laid out for me. We retested in a few weeks and found some new organism which she treated. I continued on the program for about 8 or 9 months and then we found that the pathogens were gone but that I still had no lactobacillus. I will continue to take a custom probiotic for that for quite a while.
We also tested my thyroid function with blood work which revealed that I had Hashimoto’s disease. I started taking thyroid medication (Nature-Throid) for the Hashimoto’s disease.
I have now lost 13 pounds with the program Dr. Allyn prescribed for me and I have so much more energy since starting the Nature-Throid. I feel so much better and had no idea I had so many things going on in my body.
I had other issues during that year, like a cat bite that became infected. Dr. Allyn called me every day to see how I was doing. She also did research to see what other things I could do to help with the infection and healing other than the antibiotics I had to take. She has always been there when I needed her. I don’t know how I got along this long without her.
I continue to see Dr. Allyn and we plan to continue to see what other issues I may not know about, like possible food allergies and whatever we decide I need to check out based on any symptoms I may have.
Dr. Allyn thanks for always being there and for being my friend.

Food Allergies:
I was suffering from frequent urination for many years. After seeing many doctors (MD’s), doing test after test and trying many medications, to no avail, I contacted Dr. Allyn Krieger-Fiedler (NMD). Dr. Allyn, as she is affectionately called, listened and took note of my situation and my symptoms. She suspected I may have some food allergies. I took a panel of food and chemical allergy tests and found out she was correct. I have since eliminated wheat and dairy products from my diet and my frequent urination is gone. Thank you Dr. Allyn!

I am a 37 year old male. I highly recommend Dr. Krieger-Fiedler. When I first came to see Dr. Krieger-Fiedler, I was very tired, not just ordinary tired. I had trouble getting out of bed in the morning even after ten hours of sleep. My medical doctor said I was just fine due to their blood test. So I had several blood tests and food sensitivity tests with Dr. Krieger-Fiedler and found out what the real problems were. I was allergic to hops, beets, cottonseed, egg whites to name a few. After eliminating these foods I feel great. With Dr. Krieger-Fiedler’s attention I feel relief and have energy like I was 18 years old. Mentally, I feel much more clear and experience more self-confidence and strength. I feel balanced and energized! I recommend Naturopathic medicine to get to the root of the problem.

Sinus Issues:
After suffering for several years with chronic sinus infections, I decided to get to the root of the problem rather than just treat the symptoms. Naturopathic medicine appealed to me on many levels, so I contacted Dr. Allyn and made an appointment to meet her. I was extremely impressed by her thoroughness, knowledge and professionalism. Under the doctor’s careful supervision, I went through a series of tests to determine what food allergies I had. Was I ever surprised at the results! Dr. Allyn also taught me the proper use of a netti pot, and the importance of steam inhalation to keep my sinus passages healthy. We talked at length about nutrition, vitamins, exercise, rest, and so much more. By following her expert advice, I was able to eliminate my sinus problems. Dr. Allyn was a tremendous help to me, and I recommend her wholeheartedly.
J. Evans, Fountain Hills, AZ
After three sinus infections in six months and a lifetime of allergies, I visited Dr. Allyn. She suggested food allergies. The remedy, a "Detox" program to identify the offending foods. She was correct and after modifying my food intake, I am now off allergy medication (over 40 years worth) and have had no colds or flu in years, despite traveling to work by air each week.

Psoriasis:
Dear Dr. Allyn,
Just a short note to let you know how extraordinary my experiences with you have been. Naturopathic medicine has given me the tools to become and remain a healthy person. The time and attention and true caring at your office are wonderful. I feel comfortable knowing that I can call or email you with questions or problems and know that you’re always there for me.
It’s not just another visit to the doctor, it’s an education provided in a serene, professional environment. Health issues I thought I’d have to live with the rest of my life have greatly improved or, in the case of my psoriasis, are completely cured. I appreciate the wide variety of tools you have provided me---books, pamphlets, websites and clinical testing.
Once I learned how to look at nutrition and supplements differently, I realized there’s no going back to the old ways.
Your genuine caring, compassion and knowledge have made getting and staying healthy easier and pleasant. My hope is that everyone could find the same.
Thank you again,
Linda Wicoff, Chandler, AZ
Gastrointestinal Issues:
I have been a patient of Dr. Allyn Krieger-Fiedler for the past four years. She is a very caring and knowledgeable Naturopathic Doctor. With her guidance and recommendations my health has improved greatly. She was able to clear a recurring case of pneumonia after my primary care physician prescribed a third round of antibiotics. I am approaching my third anniversary of no antibiotics, a record in my life. Dr. Allyn has convinced me on the benefits of a healthy digestive tract and increased immune system function.
Allyn has become a trusted friend and great support in many areas of my life. She understands and practices holistic medicine, knowing each of her patients is more than a collection of symptoms to be found and corrected. One thing I truly value is Allyn’s honesty. If she doesn’t know something I ask about she will tell me and either research it fully or provide options for help from other sources.

Lyme disease:
Dr. Allyn literally saved my life. For many years I saw doctors for various illnesses. I was always having a medical problem. One day I called Dr. Allyn about another condition that had arisen. She answered my question about the newest predicament, but then she called me a few days later. Dr. Allyn had studied my huge file and saw that there was a “pattern” of sorts. She suggested that I be tested for Lyme disease. She had pieced the puzzle together correctly. I do have Lyme disease.
With this diagnosis, I made an appointment with an expert in auto-immune diseases, hoping that he would be of help. I was sadly mistaken. His conclusion was that there was nothing they could do for me. I would just have to live with the horrible things this disease can do.
Lucky for me, I had Dr. Allyn on my side. We were able to go outside the box, which was empty of options at this point.
At one point my body was so depleted that I did not have the energy to get out of bed. She was able to help me get my immune system working and moving again through the use of herbs, supplements and acupuncture. We used all of the alternatives available to us. She also put me in contact with another physician who was doing some new innovative laser treatment. People were coming to him from all over the world for Lyme disease and other illnesses. She went with me to see him so that we could both learn what he had to offer and how it would work.
I am very happy to report that I was bedridden for a time, but now I am 90% back to normal. I am leading a productive, full life, and being able to enjoy all the things I had to put on hold. Without Dr. Allyn’s persistence this would not be possible. She likes to work the puzzles and figure out what is wrong, and she is always on the look-out for new solutions. Thank you Dr. Allyn!
D. H., Fountain Hills, AZ
Naturopathic medicine is my choice for health care. After years of allopathic care (where the attitude was “sorry, no answer, no cure, try this pill”), Dr. Allyn quickly diagnosed that I had chronic Lyme disease. Now, I am free of its symptoms and only need to take a simple herb daily.
With Dr. Allyn’s thorough testing and analysis she empowered me with knowledge to control my food allergies. I can now make informed food decisions and identify the additives that are detrimental to my health.
Dr. Allyn also provides additional support through informational resources such as cookbooks, cooking and gardening tips and updates on new medical information.
I feel that I am now in charge of my health because I am supported by Dr. Allyn’s knowledge and dedication.
I am grateful to have Dr. Allyn Krieger-Fiedler in my life.
