You can talk with Dave Gantz on Sunday for some ideas. He can recommend a diet plan and exercises that fit your abilities so you can get started safely right away.

We take the whole family to Dr. Thomas Lyle DDS...He never does work that is unnecessary and he is a very nice man who runs his own practice...same assistants and receptionists there for the past 10 years minimum

I see Dr Fasbender too, but all the Drs in that office are nice.

Dr. Malea Jensen, in an office just behind Valley West Mall. She really cares, lives by her own advice, and will give tough love when needed. (Oh, a semi pro body builder and can out lift you at the gym.) She is a Christian too!
Jody J. replied:
Dr. J's office is called Center Stage Primary Care. (We go to Prairie Life Fitness)

Dr. Bebensee is an awesome Dr, he's at the Unity Point clinic on Merle Hay by the mall. Highly recommended!
Amy E. replied:
Keith LOVES Dr. Karbacka at Dental Associates (next to the Olive Garden on Westown Pkwy) No judgement or animosity for not going to the dentist for entirely too long. Just "get it done." Also, for Optometrist, we go to Christian Eye Clinic on Douglas in Urbandale... Dr Shanuda is a friend of Keith's from scouts, and a good guy...
I'm looking for a new general practitioner to start seeing. My current doctor is nice, but has very limited availability. Any recommendations?
Brenda K. replied:
Dr Kelly Reed
Paige O. replied:
Dr. Heims at Mercy Clinic. I've been seeing her my entire life. She's amazing!!
Paige O. replied:
Dr Kennedy is also wonderful. If I had an emergency and heims was unavailable I would see her. Dr Moore is the only one at the clinic I refuse to be seen by. He's a jerk!
Chelsea G. replied:
Haha. Dr Bloomberg is amazing but her schedule stinks!
Sarah D. replied:
Sarah Tallman at the Iowa Clinic. If she can deal with me, she can deal with anyone!
James B. replied:
Erica I go to Dr. Jeff DeFrancisco with the Iowa Clinic out at the West Lakes office. Believe your dad sees him also. I have known him for 20 yrs. great doctor. He is an internal medicine doctor so can do a lot of things. Good luck.
Can anyone recommend a good general practitioner? My regular doctor retired and my arm has been half numb for 3 weeks.
Greg T. replied:
Dr. Joe Freund is good. He's at Franklin Family Practice (not the Mercy clinic, it's independent).
Andrew S. replied:
Dr. Megan Romine at Unity Point Jordan Creek clinic. Super friendly and crazy smart and a really good friend.

Ira B. replied:
Dr. Matthew Herman Iowa clinc in Mills Civic in west Des Moines - he is younger (kinda cute) and very good:)
Nancy T. replied:
Patricia Overton Keary at Urbandale Family Medicine. It's Mercy affiliated. She's awesome!! She's an general prac/ internal med doc which means she's really thorough.
I need a new general practitioner. I'd like someone willing to work around the perimeter of the western medicine box. Any recommendations?
Emily E. replied:
I love my NP. She's always been very supportive of my acupuncture/chiro/meditation/yoga ways. Kathy Fitzgerald at Mercy Aurora Clinic. My friend is recently seeing an internist that she loves. I'll ask her his name too.
