Dr. Mondala is a highly recommended choice of mine for a PCP. She goes far beyond medicine and introduces lifestyle changes, nutrition education, and more as her part as a lifestyle physician. Visits are very personal and one on one allowing for you to asks as many questions as possible and truly understanding your health well beyond a surface level. On top of it she's a really sweet physician and you feel like family when stopping by the office.

A dear friend of mine shared Dr. Mondala's information with me after I told her about my health concerns: my blood test showed multiple red flags and then I was infected with COVID 19 Delta variant. Severe brain fog and fatigueness made me realize that I needed help. At my first appointment, Dr. Mondala assessed my health and instructed me to modify my diet. I was touched by her care, compassion, and thoroughness. With her help, I eventually removed those red flags in my new blood test within less than 2 months and feel healthy and energetic again. Most doctors are problem fixers - they address the patients medical issues and move on to other patients. Dr. Mondala is more like a problem solver - she tries to identify the fundamental root causes of health issues, helps address them from the roots, and influences to establish a sustainable healthy lifestyle. Talking to her is always pleasant. She has a genuine heart to care for others. Some people say that you can find health tips on the Internet. True. But before you find tips, there needs to be someone to assess and tell you which area needs more attention. There are areas we don't normally think about, such as stress from work or our upbringing. Dr. Mondala gently helps me realize the root causes and take actions to address them. My husband just made an appointment with Dr. Mondala yesterday after I shared with him how much I benefited from Dr. Mondala.

I appreciate the time that Dr. Mondala spends with her patients. She listens to you and offers great suggestions that help you improve yourself both inside and out. I also like that she is an expert in plant based cooking because it is beneficial in so many ways.

Dr. Mondala has been an answered prayer. At my first appointment, I cried happy tears because she's way more than I ever expected. Just by the questions and the concerns she had, I could tell she truly loves people and want to help. I've been seeing Dr. Mondala for over 2 months now and the progress I've made is pretty incredible. She has guided me through a complete diet change and a mental health change. I'm in a better place with my anxiety, depression, mood, energy level, and personal relationships. She's made the effort to connect with me twice a week to talk about any concerns and to help me with my progress. I've built a relationship with my doctor that makes me happy and makes me confident. I trust her and her advice fully. She has given me so much hope in this journey. Dr. Mondala is writing a new story for the health industry and I'm proud to call her my Doctor.
