Dr. Rashid A. Buttar, DO

So I'm not rating him on his work because I'm not a patient of his, but seems like many other people have rated him without being his patient. I saw many functional medicine doctors in Toronto way before I heard of Dr Buttar, they all give you a book to read, their book, a handbook that is essential to set your mind in the right direction before you under go their therapy. This is not a quick fix and it always costs so much money, doesn't matter which country you're from. If you're not willing to put in the time and money it won't work. Unfortunately only available to the wealthy, I wish all practices around the world would change to make it more affordable but that doesn't mean its not legit.

Dr Buttar lives in New Zealand as I understand. He is never there. I went in for a Myers Cocktail and no one knew what was in it, they did not have all the ingredients and the retired nurse who was there for the day blew up my vein.

Dr. Buttar should focus on what he does best, and that is saving lives through holistic healing. Drop the conspiracy theories and political views. He's helping to feed the fuel of chaos and ultimately murder. My perspective and respect for him have deteriorated. He is part of the problem.

Called to get pricing, was refused pricing information because they want to setup a consult first that is over $400. I get that the therapy should be personalized 100%, but I cannot afford a consult that leads nowhere if I cannot afford the therapy. Was just needing pricing on chelation therapy. I could have used any information, any type of range or estimation of any kind... I already have test results, I JUST need the therapy.

We took our mom here because her cancer came back and we opted for the holistic approach the 2nd time around. The consultation was great with the Nurse Practitioner, she was very knowledgeable, etc. We felt we had found the right place.nnEverything changed once we made the decision to mover forward. We paid approximately $8,000 for the initial set up, blood work, supplements etc. to get mom ready for the treatment. Once the payment was made, things quickly changed. We were handed a book with the supplements and rushed out of the office. The 3 days process was less than 8 hours over a 2 day period. We were overwhelmed with what needed to be done in a 2 to 3 week period with little to no help.nnThe only way we got help once was when we said we didn't think we were going to move forward....then we got a phone call-1 phone call with the Nurse Practitioner/Doctor. We asked repeatedly for a list of the supplements with the associated cost, a high level overview of what would be needed after the 1 or 2 4 week treatment process that was needed which would have been around 100,000 and could not get any information about it.nnI would highly suggest getting all the information/cost upfront before you proceed because you will not get it once you commit. I was so shocked and disappointed in the lack of information and or help offered once we started the process. I believe this is a valid treatment and they are legit but you will be on your own a lot....be prepared.
