I am grateful for her and her staff in giving me the support, knowledge, and direction to finally shed the weight I'd not been able to lose since my twins were born (fifteen years ago 😬). I highly recommend her office!

    I am so very thankful for Dr Praderio. No one talks about menopause. I’m here to tell you it stinks! I had been going to another Gynocologist and i kept explaining what was going on with my body but i wasn’t child bearing age so i just got told there’s nothing we can do. Finally someone told me about Dr Praderio who specializes in menopause. I absolutely feel like a new person when i received my pellets. I’m very thankful that she is very open about anything you want to know. She goes through the same thing we all do so who better to talk to then someone that will truly listen.

    I live 2.5 hours away and made the drive because of the amazing reviews. I was seen this morning and I am so glad my husband helped me find this clinic. I have come to dread visits after traumatic experiences with OBGYN’s in my hometown. The staff here were incredible, extremely patient and sweet. They truly make an effort to make you comfortable and confident in their team. Dr. Praderio was the kindest OBGYN I’ve ever met. She was empathetic, sweet, patient, and understanding. I went from feeling nervous in the waiting room, scared to have another traumatic experience, to walking out after the visit with a small sense of peace that I can trust my gynecologist - something I’ve never experienced before. I was amazed at the variety of services offered at the clinic. The decor is modern and the environment is calming. They even provided a small sample gift bag with a Lindt chocolate at the end of the visit. It may sound silly to mention, but little things like that make a difference. It feels nice to know that next time I return, I won’t be in that fight or flight state. I know I will feel much more comfortable now that I know I am finally in good hands. Thank you Dr. Praderio and your team for making a difference.

    At first I didn’t think this hormone pellet therapy was going to work. Oh my goodness it has worked!! With my panic and anxiety attacks my intimacy was at a low. I always felt ugly although my husband would tell me all the time I’m beautiful. I love how her staff is always communicating with me with my blood work and how I’m feeling. I wish I would’ve know about Dr. Carolina Praderio earlier.

  • Just had my first experience of laser hair removal at this office, and would highly recommend to absolutely anyone! I have heard through friends/family different experiences with laser hair removal, and was a bit nervous to try it. With the Diolaze it was virtually painless, and loved the cooling sensation during the treatment. Richard was amazing, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire session. I am 2 weeks out from my 1st session, and already seeing small changes in my leg hair growth. Can’t wait to go back for my next session!

I found that the older I get, the harder it is to lose weight. I happened to come in for my annual appointment and I see all these flyers about Dr Praderio’s weight loss program. It was just what I needed and at the right time. All my life, I’ve battled weight loss and have tried different plans where the next time, that plan didn’t work as easy as the time before. Of course with any diet or weight loss program, you have to work at it and sometimes you need a little help along the way. At 47, I needed that help and Dr Praderio’s program has provided just that by listening to me and my struggles. I’m now eating healthier and I’ve also started running which I’ve never ever done before. The best part is the support and encouragement that you get at your weekly weigh-in. I’ve lost almost 40 lbs and although I’m at a comfortable weight, I’m confident that I can reach my goal of 20 more lbs.

First Of all, I absolutely love Dr. Carolina Praderio! In 2019 I went in to see her about my problems a with menopause and I started the hormone therapy. Last year, 2020 I mentioned to her that I was having so many problems losing weight. She introduced me to Natalia who has been a constant inspiration for me to learn to eat right and not give up when I did not have a good week. This whole office , from staff to Dr P. are so supportive. I highly recommend visiting this office, I guarantee you will keep going back!
