Tim Dymond ND

Dr. Dymond is amazing! I came to him after struggling with stomach issues for over 5 years. I had seen other doctors and specialists to no avail. However, after a fews visits with Dr. Dymond my health issues were alleviated! I finally know what it means to live in a healthy body and it has had a profound impact on my wellbeing! Also, his tinctures have replaced my need for prescription anxiety medications. Dr. Dymond is a very gifted healer and I would highly recommend him to anyone struggling with anxiety or stomach issues!

I’m not sure my story will add much to what’s already been said here, but I owe these accolades to Dr. Dymond for how much he’s helped me… so here goes! I came to Dr. Dymond a little over a year ago, having suffered from increasingly serious stomach and intestinal problems for the better part of ten years. Like others here, I’d visited a specialist at UCSF to no avail. Though I had tried various alternative methods to help my system, nothing seemed to really do the trick. It was also getting to be overwhelming keeping track of all the possible factors and foods that might be affecting my digestion. Tim Dymond was a godsend in taking in all that information — my symptoms, my history, what I’d tried and how it worked, along with stuff like family background, mood, temperament — and picking out a few simple things for me to work on. Sure enough, within a few months, I was about 75% better, and now a year later, I would call myself «cured». When I do have symptoms, now I know what they are caused by, and what to do about them, and as a result they don’t last very long. I’m not sure I could have gotten here without the help of Dr. Dymond. I would definitely recommend him for anyone with gastrointestinal issues.
Thanks Tim for your skilled and compassionate work!

I am deeply grateful that my friend referred me to Tim a couple years ago. Working with him has profoundly changed my health, my vitality, my well-​being. He was able to address and resolve issues I had been enduring for years, issues no MD or other healthcare provider had been able to help me with. Until I worked with Tim finding a health care provider who truly worked with the all of me was a dream. He is empathetic, insightful, caring, wise, skilled and committed. You may find yourself listened to more deeply than ever before in your life. If you’re looking for a partner to assist you with your well-​being, I highly, passionately, recommend Dr Dymond.

I was set for having heart surgery at the age of 26, when I went to see Dr. Dymond. He listened to me at length, quickly deduced a possible wheat allergy (turns out I had full blown celiac), and within 3 weeks the symptomatic aspects of my heart condition resolved and I was removed from medication. That made it possible for us to have a kid, and fast forward about 7 years… My last EKG and Echocardiogram were completely normal. I hope he has a chance to read this, and know what good he’s done. Pay double and say thank-​you.

I made an appointment with Dr. Dymond a few months ago because of his great reviews on Unilocal.I have had two appointments and think he is awesome! Not only is he a calming presence, but he is an incredibly thoughtful listener and really wants to get to the root of your health issues. He prescribed some tinctures that really helped me. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a good Naturopathic doctor.

Where to start.
My story sounds like the other people on here. Several chronic medical issues, most seriously what you could call «IBS» and also mood /​anxiety issues.
These had been ongoing for many years, and the IBS had been investigated by different medical teams including UCSF and Stanford (where an invasive /​expensive surgical intervention yielded no clues) No one had any useful answers or suggestions, and I was upset and pretty hopeless.
Within a few months in with Tim, the IBS related symptoms had all been pretty much eliminated, and overall I have a vastly deeper understanding of why things are happening and how I can avoid them.
The mood and anxiety has vastly improved. I’m not at the finish line yet, but when I think about where I was when I began six months ago compared to my state today, all without any hardcore pharmaceuticals, it’s pretty crazy.
I’m thankful to Tim for fixing what was a very dire situation.
Seeing as how many different symptoms of mine he has either cured, highly suspended, or effectively managed, I would honestly recommend Tim for any issue: medical or psychological /​behavioral.

Tim is a rockstar!
I came to him suffering from a variety of stomach issues. It had been almost two years of visits to different doctors with no solution in sight. In four months working with Tim, 95% of my symptoms are gone and more importantly, I know what I need to do to stay healthy.
Unlike the expensive specialists I saw, Tim spent tons of time with me and was committed to getting me better. Tim’s optimism rubbed off on me and I’m sure was part of the reason I have recovered so quickly.
Tim is super nice, very professional and I recommend him highly to anyone struggling with chronic ailments!

Tim Dymond is AMAZING! He has helped me tremendously with my overall health, and more specifically with many food allergies and digestive issues, as well as with getting pregnant. He is a wonderful listener and a talented healer. I now bring our infant son to him. I really trust Tim, he takes lots of time to know each patient individually and treats the whole body. If you are seeking a wonderful naturopathic doctor, look no further!

When you feel like traditional medicine has failed you (did anyone say Kaiser?), you will try anything, even if at first you are skeptical. But if you are dealing with a chronic problem, and it is not going away, and you want to stop poisoning your body with medications that create other issues, it is good to try something new.
I visited Dr. Dymond based on Unilocal reviews and proximity to my place. I love that he is open on Saturdays, so I don’t have to miss work to see him (Kaiser?).
He also spends a ton of time with you and asks a lot of questions to understand the whole picture of your health, and not just the issue at hand.
I can say that he did some work on me that I was not familiar with, and really did not understand too well how it exactly worked in the beginning, but I can tell you that I feel SO much better. I am not on any medication right now, and you can’t put a price on feeling normal.

Tim Dymond is simply amazing. He has done more for the good health of me and my wife than any of my western doctors have ever done. He is thoughtful, knowledgeable and he really listens. He also provides real solutions.
I had been dealing with a health issue for years and my Doctors (MD) were «treating» it with meds but never really explained what was happening or the underlying cause.
In our first meeting Tim provided more info than I had received in years and he gave me a real way to cure my issues without meds.
He also brought to light a cure for posture issues I had been dealing with forever. I was in awe that he was able to provide significant improvement to a condition that I just assumed was how I would live for the rest of my life.
Without reviewing all of the benefits Tim has provided to me and my family (we bring our 14 month old to see him now as well) he is just the best. If you want a thoughtful, alternative approach to your issues contact Tim.
I could not recommend him more.

I initially met with Dr Dymond based solely on his glowing Unilocal reviews, after having struck out at several allopathic GI specialists. Let me add another one to the pile: Please go to see him if you’re having any problems with your health, especially GI illness.
The difference between Dr Dymond and the last doctor I saw was like night and day. We sat down and talked about my current health problems and my general health and life history for around two hours. TWO HOURS! Can you remember the last time a doctor spent two full hours listening to you?
He was insightful and helpful and most of all, the options he provided actually worked. After a year of constant pain, his combination of diet and natural remedies actual helped, and now I’m well on my way to having my health back.
I really can’t recommend him highly enough. If you’re reading this and you’re looking for help, call him right now.

Tim Dymond is the best listener I have met in a long time.
He assesses problems and solutions on a deep level and digs past what most western doctors view as «passable» in terms of helping one to achieve their very best health.
In just 3 short months, my overall bloodwork changed from items that were out of range to «perfect» and he STILL wants to tweek those results to be even better.
I exhibited huge changes in my Vitamin D, zinc and hormone levels without taking any prescriptions — just homeopathic remedies and small supplements like Vitamin C, omega-​3s and probiotics. Through small changes in diet, my TSH levels changed for the better as well.
I cannot say enough about Dr. Dymond.
He has changed my life.

I have had IBS for the past 7 years. None of my doctors wanted to take the time to figure out what my ailment was. I tried elimination diets on my own but the problem did not go away. Dr. Dymond was able to find insights in events in my past that lead to my IBS. Together we designed a custom diet to return my GI tract back to normal.
Dr. Dymond is kind, professional, and a pleasure to work with. I learned so much with each visit. I highly recommend his services – if I could give him 10 stars I would.

Dr Tim has been my Dr since he opened his doors in Sf .I love his whole health approach to naturopathic medicine and how he digs deep and thinks hard before prescribing gentle, powerful remedies to balance my body or mind. He is especially strong with chronic disease and spends lots of one on one time with you. a way different experience than a regular dr visit where they peek in and flip a chart around for 5 mins before leaving me to the extern. I love the personal attention and he always gives a plan to move forward with, which i love!

I have been struggling with stress-​related chronic digestive issues for years, which several attempts using accupuncture and allopathic medicine have not been able to successfully address. Dr. Dymond met with me twice and came up with a comprehensive treatment plan using (among other things) supplements, hydrotherapy, and homoeopathy. I very much appreciated a doctor who listened and helped me consider the total context for the occurrence of my symptoms. After about a month of following his plan, I am symptom free and am totally enjoying it.

Tim Dymond offers a much needed personalized approach to health and healthcare. His approach is a highly informed, holisitic, and offers his patients multiple paths to both empowerment and health improvement. By making several specific (but minor) changes to my daily routines, I am now considerably healthier today than I was several months ago.

I’d been meaning to try going to a naturopath for a long time, and was just waiting for a good recommendation. My trusted chiropractor, Dr. James Wang, recommended Dr. Dymond. I’ve been in several times in the last about 4 months. Fatigue, dizziness, allergies, etc, that have plagued me for years. Dr. Dymond has helped me understand a couple probably causes of the symptoms. He designed a program for me to follow over a couple months. I can’t believe it, but I’m really not feeling dizzy much, and my energy level is improving. The program is difficult at times, but it’s truly worth feeling this much better. I would definitely recommend Dr. Dymond’s services.

Dr. Dymond has helped me manage my chronic illnesses, strengthen broken limbs, gain more energy, and all around achieve a level of health I have not had in years. I have a chronic autoimmune disease that has been managed through medications for over a decade. When a doctor at UCSF tried to put me on more risky medication treatments, I turned to Tim. Because of his treatment plans I have been able to sustain health and avoid these dangerous medications. Tim evaluated my diet, performed body work on sensitive points, and provided vitamin and supplement regimens that overall have helped me feel better and reduce my symptoms. He is very caring, thoughtful, and understanding. Kudos to him for doing a house call when I badly broke my leg this summer and bringing the recommended supplements to me. He is truly amazing and enjoys what he does very much– exactly what you want in a healthcare provider.

I had almost given up on my health. I had spent so much money and so much time. The money was all gone and I was averaging 4 doctor appointments a week. A friend referred me to Dr. Tim and I agreed to go. There were times when I sat in his office and could barely keep my eyes open. I was exhausted all the time, having migraines almost every day, not sleeping while taking over the counter prescription sleeping pills. Life was difficult. But, about 2 months later, I am headache free, bright-​eyed and thinking clearly, and sleeping deeply for the whole night, without medication. I know that there are more things in store, because we haven’t really started on healing yet, we’ve just stopped the worst symptoms. So I look forward to seeing what the future brings.

Dr. Dymond is a great naturopathic doctor. He helped me through some chronic health problems that had my previous doctors throwing in the towel. Since then I have continued to see him, focusing on health maintenance and sports related musculoskeletal pain. Great medicine all around. His consultation style is a breath of fresh air: he takes the time to go in-​depth, and comes up with treatment plans that actually work. Follow up is also great.
