What Our Clients Say
"I was overweight, had back pain, and am a diabetic. I saw the ad on FB for a program that could help me with all three. I went to the seminar and was impressed with what Ryan had to say. He had a lot to offer me. I’m so grateful to all the staff for their knowledge, understanding, and ability to help me through this journey. I knew our food and products were enhanced to the point where they were unhealthy. The program helped me understand this even more. Eating clean and including the proper food groups was key. It helped me tremendously with my weight management and I felt much better. My diabetes is still a work in progress. The workout that Physical Therapy planned for me has helped my back pain 95%. The pool is so enjoyable. The best thing is whatever I needed, it was available at Ryan Fern Healthplex. KUDOS TO ALL THE SMILING STAFF!!! Please know that you have changed my life for the better and I’m sure you have done this for all the people you have worked with."
MaryAnna Russell
"I am so grateful that I could do this program. This is the best I have felt in a very long time. I was so impressed by Ryan and the entire staff, their knowledge, patience, and kindness and always being available to help. The time went by so fast! I had a few hiccups along the way, but what I have learned will follow me for the rest of my life. I would highly recommend this program to anyone struggling with hormone imbalances. The movie/documentary on sugar remains in my mind when I am tempted. If I allow myself to slip, I pay the price by feeling lousy and it’s just not worth it Kathi I appreciate your attention to detail and enjoyed our phone meetings. You are always a ray of sunshine! Again, many thanks to you all"
Kathy Williams
"I cannot believe I finally found a program that I have been able to lose weight on and keep it off! No, I am not where I need to be but I am so much closer than I have ever been. My blood work has improved in many areas. I have more energy and clarity of thought. My body does not ache and pain as it did with getting out of bed in the morning, moving up and down, or sitting for a longer period of time and then moving again. However, the thing I am most proud of is all the knowledge I have gained throughout this process. I am trying to master the tools for healthy living and eating. The program guides you through all of this. Kathi is fantastic with the nutritional information. She answered all the many questions I had about so many things i.e. products, foods, cooking and shopping tips, and on and on."
Elaine Yantz
"During these last 6 months, my life has been crazy. My faith, the staff, and the program here at the Ryan Ferns Healthplex have equipped me not to go into deep depression or binge eating. The months prior to hearing about the Healthplex as a type 1 diabetic I was ready to talk to my doctors about being considered for a gastric sleeve. My husband, David, and I attended a free seminar on Tuesday, November 1, 2023. We were excited about what we heard and quickly filled out the assessment."
Tammy Coe
"At age 50, a Type II diabetes diagnosis really through me for a loop. My A1C was initially over 10 and I was in the OBESE category with a BMI of 36. I tried everything from hypnosis, acupuncture, fad diets, weight watchers, etc all while walking 3 miles a day and staying active hiking and kayaking. I love to travel and when I would see picture of me I just cringed. At age 55 I found Healthplex via a Facebook ad and could not be more thrilled. I am exactly 3 weeks into a 6 month program. Everything is very easy to follow with great documentation and wonderful support..." Read Full Story

"It is with great enthusiasm and gratitude that I submit this five-star review for the Functional Medicine Lifestyle Program at The Healthplex. I chose to embark on my six month lifestyle program to address some chronic health challenges and prevent familial heart disease and diabetes. It was time for me to get some help addressing root causes of issues and prevention rather than to wait and treat symptoms later when ill. The return on investment (of time and money) has been priceless. Significant health improvements, weight loss, identification of food sensitivities, improved sleep, wellbeing, energy, and hope for continued progress make all the hard work worth it."

"Where do I even begin? My health started declining rapidly in January this year, and despite multiple visits to my primary care physician, I wasn’t getting the help I needed. My symptoms were severe—chronic diarrhea up to 8 times a day, constant stomach pain, facial numbness, heart palpitations, daily panic attacks, blurry vision, and much more. My PCP kept attributing everything to anxiety, increasing my medications, and even prescribing schizophrenia medication as an anxiety treatment. But nothing improved; in fact, it only got worse. It felt like my entire life was spiraling out of control." Read Full Story
Elisabeta Mitchell
"I just wanted to let you know that, so far, my GERD symptoms have subsided and I have not taken Omeprazole or any other type of acid blocker for 7 days now. This is a MILESTONE as I have been on some type of them for over 30 years. I have never been able to go past 3 days without taking something. We are on the RIGHT TRACK with this program. I can't wait for the rest of it."
