I understand that testimonials play a part in giving you the ability to feel comfortable that you are not alone in putting your trust in something. It is kind of the safety in numbers rule. Whether or not it is true, we feel as if our chances of getting bitten are lower if a lot of other people are already in the water. Keep in mind, however, that even the worst products still have lots of testimonials. At ZimmerNutrition.com we do not use testimonials to help exaggerate the benefits of a product. As you are about to see, we only accept testimonials that attest to who we are instead of what we sell!

“I am very excited to recommend you to Dr. Ed Zimmer. He has really helped me with my own health. Ed has also been an excellent teacher and resource for me to learn much more about nutrition. This new knowledge has really helped me in my practice and care of my patients. If you need nutritional help or care, please give Ed and his office a call. I'm sure you will be impressed with his knowledge and care, just as I and my patients have been.”

- Dr. Lisa Miller, M.D.

“Dr. Zimmer has been such a great help to myself and my patients. I appreciate that his knowledge of herbal medicine is evidence based and very thorough. He has helped me out many times with successful alternative treatments to try with my patients. From what I hear back, my patients love him! They love the friendly non-threatening atmosphere and the fact that the treatments work. They get better - who wouldn't love that?”

- Dr. Dana Cayor, M.D.

“I cannot emphasize how pleased I am to have Dr. Zimmer as a resource for my patients. Not only has he proven himself to be a master in his chiropractic skills, but he also has been an awesome asset to me and my patients in his knowledge of nutrition, detoxification, and vitamin supplementation. He skillfully balances stellar clinical skills with a warm, jovial bedside manner. Not only do my patients all LOVE him, but they get better too!”

- Ilana Colgrove, Nurse Practitioner

The depth of Dr. Zimmer’s nutrition knowledge is absolutely remarkable.  He is exceptionally talented at discovering the root causes of patients’ health concerns and providing counseling that gives expert nutritional guidance and answers for recovering health and wellness.  All will find him to be a man of immense integrity and genuine concern. I am always happy to make referrals to him and his highly experienced staff. I am proud to be able to call Dr. Ed Zimmer a colleague and a friend.

“I began going to Dr. Zimmer after a roller coaster accident. I had been to numerous Doctors, Physical Therapists, and Pain Management Specialists for severe headaches. They threw medications at me to the point that I had to take medicine to counteract the effects of other medicines. For years nothing worked. Dr. Zimmer took a genuine interest in me and my problem. He detoxified me and got me off all the medications (11 of them). Over the past five years, he has made my pain manageable and I have gotten my life back. If it were not for him, I would probably be dead by now!

My 8 year old son began seeing Dr. Z a few months ago. He is mildly mentally handicapped. After evaluating him, Dr. Z discovered an amino acid deficiency and recommended a product that would aid in brain function. After a few short weeks, we noticed a drastic improvement in his academic and artistic ability. He is doing things we never thought possible! Dr. Z is awesome with him! He uses such care and reassurance when working with him. My son is totally at ease with Dr. Z, which is amazing to us because he is terrified by Doctors. Dr. Zimmer has truly impacted our lives on a level that few people ever have! He is an amazing Doctor, a wonderful person, and a true friend. Thank you Dr. Z!!! You have made a tremendous difference in our lives!”

“During High School, I caught mono and for two years afterwards was plagued with what doctors called “post-viral infections”. I soon became allergic to foods that I had eaten my entire life, was constantly getting colds that lasted months on end, constantly felt tired and ached. I even went to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN to no avail either. “Post-viral infection” they would say. I ran from Doctor to Doctor looking for an answer to feel better. My mother heard about Dr. Zimmer from our church, and we decided to give him a try. I have done detoxifications for a year now and feel myself again. I rarely have caught a cold and they last a normal amount of time. I have energy and I just feel good. I even this year on my college’s team/pom squad. Thanks Dr. Z.”

“For the past 4 ½ years I have lived with severe abdominal pain, fibromyalgia, and IBS. Before coming to Dr. Zimmer I had significant daily pain. I had not been able to do even basic household chores like laundry, vacuuming, or preparing meals. After 6 months with Dr. Zimmer, I am able to do all of these things and more! I can play with my kids! I can go hiking, biking, and I even tried rollerblading! This is a freedom some told me to never expect again. Thank you, for giving me my life back!”

- Kris M.

“After suffering with Fibromyalgia symptoms and hormonal issues for 12 years, I truly believe that working with Dr. Zimmer has been the turning point in my journey towards improved health. Dr. Zimmer and I had numerous detailed discussions about my symptoms and he suggested key tests that helped us determine just what was happening in my body. After carefully analyzing the results, he made important nutritional recommendations to address those issues. There is no "cookie cutter" approach here! I finally feel that I am on the right track to give my body the proper nutritional tools to begin the healing process. There are few doctors these days that work so hard to get to the real root of the problem. He works tirelessly to do so. I don't know where I would be today if I had not had his expertise, and just as importantly, his care and deep concern to help me. I can't say enough about my positive experience with Dr. Zimmer. He and his helpful staff have truly been a blessing."

- Donna P.

"My family and I became very ill from mold toxin exposure. After two ER visits and seeing multiple physicians, a good friend recommended I see Dr. Zimmer. I was very skeptical of nutritionists, but I was desperate. From the first appointment I immediately felt at ease with Dr. Zimmer. Dr. Zimmer treated me for adrenal fatigue. I went from thinking I needed to be on antidepressants for life to having my health restored - drug free. Likewise, my two children were being treated by physicians for allergies with nasal steroids and antihistamines. Within one month of treatment with Dr. Zimmer, my children came off the medication with no symptoms returning. I appreciate the education I received - not only to heal, but to prevent further illnesses. Dr. Zimmer is very knowledgeable. He does not claim more than what is researched. Best of all...he has a huge heart - he really cares!"

“I was recently diagnosed with diabetes. Dr. Zimmer helped me to understand what diabetes is and how to make the right choices regarding nutrition and what supplements would be beneficial. He also helped calm my fears and assured me that I am in charge, not my disease. Dr. Z is always there when I have questions about nutrition and supplements (which is quite often). Now, about those corny jokes...they are great fun!”

- Cathy K.

“I am so thankful that I was referred to Dr. Zimmer. I am finally getting answers to the questions about my health that have bothered me for so long. After years as a regular exerciser, I began to struggle to complete my daily tasks. I was dealing with regular pain in my stomach that made me want to lie down and curl up in a ball. I sought advice from my doctor, and was told that I was depressed and offered medication. I changed to a different doctor, had a full range of tests run and was again told there was no medical reason for my fatigue and it was probably due to depression. After being referred to Dr. Zimmer for neck and back pain, I not only walked away feeling better physically, but I began to have hope that there were answers to my questions. Dr. Zimmer helped me detoxify my body, build up my immune system, and deal with the imbalances that were causing my pain.

Dr. Zimmer is a storehouse of information about health and nutrition. I have asked many questions and have always been given timely, knowledgeable explanations. What impresses me the most about Dr. Zimmer is his willingness to listen and take the time to help even when there is no financial benefit to be gained. I have come to trust "Dr. Z" because he has taken the time to explain things, treated me as a friend, and because the products he has suggested have actually improved my health. Thanks to Natural D-Hist I no longer have recurring sinus infections in the spring and fall. Thanks to the regular use of OrthoBiotics, my immune system is stronger and I am no longer sick through most of the winter. I highly recommend Dr. Zimmer to my family and friends! He has been a real blessing in my life!”

- Beth T.

"I praise God for the nutritional advice and guidance that I have received from Dr. Zimmer. He truly has a genuine love and desire to teach his patients about health and nutrition in order to guide them to lifestyles of optimal health. Dr. Zimmer has always been available to answer the many questions I have about health and has taken the time to make sure I understand what he is talking about. Dr Zimmer's staff is one-of-a-kind! They love every patient that walks through the door and they go above and beyond in every way. I can't imagine what my health would be like without Dr. Zimmer in my life. He thoroughly loves his job and it shows everyday. He is real, honest and loves the Lord. I know I will be a life-long patient!”

"Five years ago my 9 year old daughter started seeing Dr. Zimmer for her scoliosis. A year later I was diagnosed with stage 3 aggressive breast cancer. I felt it was just as important to keep the healthy part of my body strong to fight the bad cells and the lethal chemo. Dr. Zimmer invested a lot of time researching my nutrition and supplement plan. He carefully explained everything, always is available to answer any questions and continues to update my protocol as he learns about new information. I have felt great and it has been six years!!! Both my daughters and I see Dr. Zimmer regularly as he is monitoring my daughter's scoliosis. He is very compassionate about what he does and his compassion is felt by the three of us!”

- Karen S.

Dr. Z has helped me so much since I was diagnosed with the nasty C-difficile bacteria over 3 years ago. After that I suffered from an intense bout of Candida. Dr. Z gave me direction and explained the reasons why what he suggested would benefit my condition. He counseled me to be patient and it would get better, and of course he was right.  :)

If I had not come in that one day and mentioned what I was going through, I have no doubt that I would still be jumping between Dr's giving me "man made" chemicals to get rid of my disease to no avail.

Since I stayed on the supplements I wasn't sick all last year, not even a sniffle. I am a full backer of what you are doing my friend and I believe God is your biggest backer! You are doing a superb job.
Thanks again and God Bless

I started going to see Dr. Zimmer for chiropractic care after a pulled muscle had me off work for a week.  I was very impressed that he took the time to help educate me on what was happening and what was causing my problem.  He set a plan to help me - AND HE DID!  I trust him completely.

Shortly after I started seeing Dr. Z for chiropractic care I started to get curious about the nutrition aspect of my health.  I set up a consultation with Dr. Z and he answered all my questions and pinpointed some of my problem areas (mainly digestive).  After about a week of taking the recommended supplements, I started to notice a change.  I was feeling better and the digestive problems were calming down.  Over time my problems actually stopped and I felt so much better.

Then I stumbled.  I felt so good that I stopped taking the supplements.  My digestive problems slowly returned and once again I wasn't feeling well.  I made an appointment with Dr. Z (who never gives up on you!) and we set another plan in motion.  I started taking the supplements again and already I am feeling so much better.  He knows what he is doing and he wants to help.

He never suggests more than what you need and he tailors everything specifically to you and your needs.  I look forward to getting back in shape and feeling better.  Dr. Z explains everything and helps break it down so you can understand it.  He also helps motivate you through his interest and excitement.  I would recommend him to EVERYONE!

Dr. Zimmer has earned our family’s respect through his commitment to excellent care. He has helped heal and brought pain relief for our entire family for over 5 years.  The health issues that he has treated for us include: sport injuries, sleep disorders, attention deficit, and heart problems.  Also, Dr. Zimmer uses his extensive nutritional knowledge in suggesting quality vitamins that are reasonably priced.  He offers wise, effective supplement advice and stays current on new research for traditional and herbal medicines (he surpasses our internists).  While consistently recommending treatment plans that bring results, Dr. Zimmer even helps cure discouraged spirits with his upbeat attitude and warm laughter!   There are many medical offices that are closer to us, but this doctor is worth the drive!
