KIND WORDS FROM PATIENTS

  • “One of the tougher aspects about moving is finding health care providers you really like, luckily for me, that wasn’t an issue when I moved to Bend. On several occasions I heard folks talk about their positive experience with Dr Ward-Selinger. Upon meeting her in person, I knew she’d be a great fit for my healthcare needs. She’s been a godsend helping me unravel the intricacies of peri/menopause. She’s taken extra training on hormones and is very knowledgeable on the topic. I highly recommend making an appointment with Dr. Lauren Ward-Salinger and feel like yourself again!”

    Melissa

  • “Unlike any doctor’s visit I’ve experienced, in a good way! The way Dr. Ward-Selinger took all my symptoms and looked at them through a holistic lens was so refreshing. I loved how she didn’t treat my symptoms as separate issues or give me bandaid solutions but looked at the whole picture and got down to the “why” they were occurring. She provided the perfect balance between utilizing western tests and natural supplements. I highly recommend this office if your goal is to truly understand your body and nurture it to its highest potential.”

What stands out most about her approach is how integrative and thorough she is—nothing is ever too complex or “too much.” She looks at the whole picture and is deeply committed to finding the root cause of what’s going on, rather than just treating symptoms.”

    Bobbi

  • “Dr. Lauren is thoughtful, kind, and genuinely brilliant. She has a gift for explaining things in a way that feels clear and accessible, empowering me to really understand my own body and healing process. I came to Lauren with a myriad of symptoms, including vaginal pain, autoimmunity, gut problems, and fertility stress, and she has tackled everything head-on, and I can honestly say that all of my symptoms have either improved or completely gone away thanks to her diligence and determination to help me. She's worth the investment, and she knows what she is doing.”
