In 1997 after the birth of my last son, I developed a prolapsed bladder and uterus. My situation was not only painful but embarrassing at the age of 37. The medical advice I received from one of the most reputable OB-GYNS in South Texas was to “lift the bladder and take the uterus out”. The doctor's exact words were, “a uterus is only good for two things, babies and cancer, and because you don't plan on having any more children it's best to remove it and lessen the risk of cancer”. During my consultation, I also broached the subject of whether I would have to take Hormone Replacement. The doctor's other famous statement to me was, “because I'll be performing a partial hysterectomy, leaving your ovaries in, you'll have no need for HRT”.
 
I left the doctor's office feeling like he was doing me a favor with reducing the risk of uterine cancer, no periods and a giving me a new lease on life. The day of my surgery finally arrived. Hind sight… it was the beginning of the end. The surgery went way past the allotted amount of time and I bled profusely on the operating table. My husband had to approve for a blood transfusion. What was supposed to be a day and a half stay in the hospital became five. When I arrived at home, almost immediately I started to have the night sweats and depression. My doctor said this was normal and that it would subside. It never did. In fact from 1999 to 2004 before I went to the Hotze Health and Wellness Center, I tried everything. Counseling, antidepressants, herbal remedies, lab tests, over the counter medicine and prayer. My husband and children saw a dramatic spiral down hill for five (5) years.
 
My moods were on edge and at any given moment I'd scream and cry. I found no joy.
I had no desire in being a wife and mom, going to church, having a career, or taking physical care of myself. I was going through the motions but I felt dead inside. In 2003, my husband Charles and I moved our family to Houston. The stress of the move sent me over the top. Now, not only was I emotionally not well, but I felt exhausted and sick.
I was constantly fighting colds and infections, and my skin was aging at what seemed overnight. My husband and I prayed that either I would be healed or that somehow I would find help.
 
One day my husband came home from a business trip and showed me the airline's magazine. In it was a woman's testimony very similar to mine. We felt the article was answered prayer. In January 2004, I started to live again. After a complete battery of tests, Dr. Ellsworth, at the Hotze Health and Wellness Center, helped me back to health. I take Armour Thyroid for my Hypothyroidism, Progesterone and Estrogen as Hormone Replacement, and Cortisol for Adrenal Fatigue.  I still follow the Yeast-Free eating program suggested by the doctors and try to exercise as often as possible. I am here to testify that I have not had any depression for two years, my thoughts and emotions are in balance, I feel energetic and I look so forward to having a loving relationship with my husband and children. I THANK GOD and Hotze Health and Wellness Center for giving me my life back.

I’ve been a guest at this facility for 15 years. They are the most efficient, thorough and caring group of individuals I’ve ever experienced. Dr Hotze looks to change the way a typical doctor treats patients and looks for root causes to eliminate medical issues instead of treating “symptoms”. My life has improved 100% since my initial visit. The cost of the treatments are worth it.

I cannot accurately describe in words how I feel about this practice and the entire staff. I have had quite a few health issues throughout the years, rheumatoid arthritis, sjogrens, weight gain, hair loss, irritability, and that is just the beginning. I had pretty much given up on feeling good, just decided to "live with it" and hope for the best. Two very close friends love the Hotze Wellness Clinic and they have experienced life changing health. Made my appointment and from the beginning I felt heard. Not a in and out fast food style practice. They are looked and are looking at my entire body for overall health and wellness. Connections from mind and body to clinical blood work, even dental questions....they care and I feel as if I can trust them. I am on a path to complete wellness and my goal is to have my RA back in remission as it once was....make yourself a priority. Having hope is an incredible feeling!
