I want to extend my gratitude to both Dr. Stephanie and Amy for their guidance and support on my healing journey. After 10 years of experiencing symptoms, with no relief from allopathic or functional medicine, I found the Vagus clinic. All I took was one intake call with Dr. Stephanie to recognize this would be an entirely different experience than what I had been used to. Her passion for her work and insight into the body was apparent immediately. Furthermore, I felt seen and heard when I shared my own intuitive insights into my body, unlike previous doctors who dismissed anything I shared as I'm not "an expert". I believe we all have access to intuition regarding our physical, mental and spiritual health, and to have a doctor who took my perspective into account while determining the course of action was truly a revelation. Lo and behold, 3 months later, I am experiencing relief from my symptoms for the first time in a decade. Not only am I healing from previous ailments, but the protocol has laid the foundation for a lifetime of physical health and wellbeing. Dr. Stephanie has empowered me to understand my body and navigate moving forward on my path utilizing my innate intelligence, rather than simply relying on her. What a gift! I would like to give a special thanks to Amy, who's presence and support was invaluable as questions arose while on the protocol. To anyone considering working with Dr. Stephanie and the Vagus Clinic, I wholeheartedly recommend it!

From the first discovery call with Amy at the Vagus Clinic, I knew that I'd finally found the right people to help me solve my 3.5 year medical mystery that stumped more than 30 physicians. Ina matter of 5 weeks, I had all of the answers I'd spent years looking for and was beginning my path to recovery. Nearly one year later and it's truly a night and day difference. I'm not out of the woods just yet, but I owe so much of the progress I've made to Dr. Stephanie and my health coach Amy's guidance, patience, and dedication. They both genuinely understand what their clients are experiencing and offer a high level of empathy and care, because they've both been through it too. And personally, the only people I trust with my health are those who've had to heal themselves first. If you're sick and you don't know why, I wholeheartedly recommend connecting with the team at the Vagus Clinic.

Working with Dr. Stephanie and Amy has been a life-changing experience and I couldn’t be more grateful for it.After dealing with Hashimotos and various other mystery autoimmune conditions for years, and after working with one of the best functional medicine clinics in Manhattan and getting absolutely nowhere, I was left feeling very discouraged.One day I learned about Dr. Stephanie and The Vagus Clinic and I immediately felt a strong pull to reach out. I had an intuitive feeling they would be able to help me, and I was right.I am 3.5 months into my protocol and I have never felt healthier. Many of my symptoms have already improved, I have a much greater understanding of what is going on inside my body, and I clearly know the root causes of the symptoms. I love watching Dr. Stephanie work in session. I feel like I am witnessing a master at work as she creates my individual protocol. Dr. Stephanie’s kindness, compassion, empathy, and humor were such a breath of fresh air upon out first meeting together. I cried in our first session because I had never had a doctor who spent so much time with me, understood my experience and how to support me, and who believed I could heal. Dr. Stephanie is deeply determined to get to the root of each symptom in order to provide her patients with relief and healing. She empowers me when it comes to my health, which supports me in making informed and aligned decisions in my life. Amy has been there every single step of the way throughout my time with The Vagus Clinic. Her generosity, patience, guidance, knowledge, and compassion have been immensely supportive. Amy is a huge reason why I have been able to move through this protocol so effortlessly. Anytime I reach out with a question, Amy is there to assist me with kindness and no judgment at all. I feel deeply grateful for her consistent guidance and have never received half this amount of support from any other doctor’s office. Truly, Amy and the support she offers are a treasure. I hold deep gratitude and reverence for both Dr. Stephanie and Amy. I highly recommend their loving and masterful expertise and guidance on your healing journey. I consider myself very blessed for the opportunity to have worked with them.

I was struggling with intense anxiety after the result of a serious knee injury that sent my life spiraling out of control with daily panic attacks. It was recommended that I reach out to Dr. Steph and her team at the Vagus clinic. Dr. Steph and my health coach, Amy Foran have been incredible. I've been able to take my life back and they have been there every step of the way with me. They've been able to properly identify my health deficiencies and provided solutions for these issues to solve the root causes...not just providing solutions to cover up symptoms. On top of that I have started seeing the Vagus Clinic chiropractor, Dr. Leah who has been truly amazing. A full 5 star review from me for this team at the VAGUS clinic as they have been worth every penny! You guys have honestly been amazing, especially you Amy. I truly do appreciate you always being there to help and I feel so much better...slowly getting my life back!

Upon going to my primary physician and many specialists and not getting the correct diagnosis for my chronic health issues. I was trying to find a more natural way to help me regain my health! That’s when my niece recommended Dr. Stephanie. To my surprise this amazing woman helped me like no doctor has done for the last 5 years of struggling with constant health problems. She set me up with a supplement protocol that I followed very closely and Amy was always there for any questions or concerns that I had. It was a difficult journey but I completed the protocol and have been feeling healthy and well. I now understand that all of those health issues that I was having were caused by underlying health problems that were not being addressed by mainstream medicine. Now that I know the causes, I can change my lifestyle and with the addition of Dr. Stephanie's supplement regimen I can regain my health.
Thank you to Dr. Stephanie and her very knowledgeable assistant Amy. They are both amazing and I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

I can't thank Dr. Canestraro and her team enough for helping me to feel the best I have in years! I worked closely with health coach Amy Foran who always went above and beyond to answer all of my questions which enabled me to feel comfortable and informed during my tailored-protocol. It was only a week into my protocol when I noticed improvements in my sleep, mood, and overall well-being. I'm so glad I made the decision to work with the Vagus Clinic to understand the root causes of my health issues and the most effective way to bring myself back into balance. I feel better than ever.
Thank you, Vagus Clinic!
