Alternative Health Atlanta - Marietta, Georgia

I love this practice. They have been so wonderful to me. Dr Watkins gave me so much hope at a time when I really needed it. I love going to my appointments with her because she is so kind and encouraging. My experience with her has been a breath of fresh air compared to the sometimes grim environment of conventional medical appointments. She was so excited for me when I received good news, and when I told her, "I feel like we could be friends" she said, "We are friends!" I love her and she has a wonderful staff. I would recommend this practice to anyone.

From my 1st visit in Oct 2024, until now the change in my stomach is nothing less than remarkable. I went cold turkey on my PPI after taking large doses for 15+ years and now rarely experience acid reflux. On rare occasions that I do, I have natural medicines to resolve it. Also the unpredictability of my stomach had changed my willingness to venture out, afraid of not having immediate access to the bathroom. Horrible way to live! Not anymore. I am so thankful to Dr Watkins and the entire team. Couldn’t be more pleased.

Where to start! I have been going to Alternative Health Atlanta for almost 3 months and my experience has been amazing. During my initial consultation, I was sitting in the room thinking what my next move to get chocolate would be after leaving. I started my treatment that day and walked out with a lifetime of chocolate addiction gone.

The team is a small and mighty, genius staff. They really take the time to get to know you. I never feel rushed. And most importantly my weird symptoms finally make sense. Someone finally understands the struggles I have had for a decade! AND can work with me on it!

The initial intake goes fast and can be scary. Unfortunately medicine that works is not covered by health insurance, but you can always try to submit a claim on your own. There are payment options, and I've found Alternative Health Atlanta to be either in line or more affordable than when I've compared to others who explored similar routes. But most importantly - it works!

Dr. Watkins and the AHA team are wonderful. I came in with the very specific needs and in a short period had a very positive turn around. My focus has shifted from thinking about my health often to on being great in life!

Alternative Health Atlanta was a bright light on a very frustrating medical journey. I came to them almost two months ago when I saw certain medical numbers increasing and none of my traditional doctors trying to find root causes before just prescribing additional meds. Even with the first phone consultation, I walked away having more of an understanding of what was going on with my body than I've had in years.
From my first visit to now (completing my first 6 weeks of my program), every experience I've had has been absolutely positive. There's been a ton of hand holding through the process. Everything is slowly and clearly explained to you, treatments, testing, cost, etc. It's all made very clear and you are patiently given the space to ask any questions or address any concerns. With each visit, the entire staff is welcoming, kind and very hospitable.
Next, there really aren't enough kind words to say about Dr. Watkins to get anyone to truly know how impactful her care is, you just have to experience it for yourself. First, as i described everything I had been experiencing with my health and my doctors, I FELT HEARD. Dr. Watkins didn't rush me through any of my explanations and she asked clarifying questions. As every test result came in Dr. Watkins sat down next to me and explained every single result of each test, asking if I had questions before moving on. In 6 weeks time, my numbers are better, stress and anxiety levels drastically lowered, weight reduced. My body is responding to treatment very well, it's almost as if it's waking up from a long sleep.
As far as dietary changes go, we were able to identify how i need to adjust my diet. Any time I have product or ingredient questions, Dr. Watkins or a member of the staff emails me with specific recommendations just for me.
Committing to a program and making the necessary changes was challenging but it made all the difference in the word feeling so supported by every single person in this office.
And if you're wondering, yes, I still see my traditional doctors, but having the information, care regiment and support from Alternative Health Atlanta allows me to have better informed conversations and advocacy when it comes to my overall treatment plan and wellness routine.
If you're considering Alternative Health Atlanta, just call and see for yourself. It could be one of the most amazing things you'll ever do for yourself.

Wonderful practice! Treated my condition holistically and with thorough education on my condition and treatment. Before seeing them I was taking prescriptions and was having terrible cystic acne along with my condition. I couldn’t find reasonable treatment through traditional medicine and had tried some that were just plain ineffective. With Dr. Watkins after less than a month my acne disappeared, my energy increased and I felt less chronic aches and pains.

"Mama, it's like magic!" - my 4 yr old daughter.

Alternative Health has truly been a blessing for our family. After trying multiple Western treatment methods for my own skin issues, we found ourselves in a difficult situation when our daughter developed a painful and extremely itchy skin inflammation that steroids simply weren’t alleviating. That was when we decided it was time to explore new avenues, and I’m so glad we did.

Dr. Watkins and the entire staff have created an incredibly safe and comforting environment as we transitioned to homeopathic therapies. Their thoroughness is impressive; we never feel rushed during our appointments, and it's refreshing to be in a space where our concerns are genuinely listened to. We are heard and understood every step of the way. They also have several payment plans and options which has given us the opportunity to benefit from their services without it being cost prohibitive.

One of the highlights of our experience has been watching our daughter learn to perform acupressure treatments on herself. It has empowered her to take an active interest in her health, which is wonderful to see. We saw results almost instantly and although we aren't out of the woods quite yet (been doing the program for 3 months), my daughter can now enjoy a bath and no longer itches herself into a bloody oblivion. Her skin inflammation is no longer raised and red...as a mother it just makes me want to cry. We did embrace the dietary recommendations provided by the clinic as a whole family, and it has not only positively impacted our daughter but has also had a beneficial effect on our 3-year-old son's mood. It's also easier not making separate meals for everyone!

This journey towards alternative health has been life-changing for us and it truly feels like a sustainable way of life that we were ready to embrace. It takes a village!!! I wholeheartedly recommend Alternative Health to anyone seeking a compassionate and effective approach to healing. Thank you, Dr. Watkins and the entire team, for your incredible support and guidance! x

I came into Alternative Health Atlanta at the lowest point in my life mentally. I’ve been struggling with multiple health issues the past two years after a thyroid crisis and total thyroidectomy, but I could not get doctors to take my symptoms seriously. Dr Watkins made me feel heard and understood from the very first phone consultation in a way that I have never experienced before from a healthcare provider. Everyone in the office is incredibly kind and friendly, and that alone helped motivate me to commit to the healing program they set out for me. My partner has come to a few of my appointments and has also been extremely impressed with how kind and caring everyone is. I just completed my 6-week turnaround period and I’m so glad that I committed to it, because I was truly at the end of my rope when I first came into the office. I was nervous about going to a holistic health provider for the first time, but I could not be more happy that I did. If you’re like me and reading these Google reviews, I highly recommend just setting up that first phone consultation and going from there. Especially if you feel you haven’t been taken seriously by healthcare providers in the past because of gender and/or race, I can’t emphasize enough how different it has felt at AHA from other places/doctors I’ve interacted with in the past.
