Dr. Ristimaki is amazing. She truly knows how to have a one on one with the patient but mostly wants to do everything to understand and make the goal happen. Being in my early 30's, I never realize how much a woman's body can change and how much I need a Naturopath, not only for my diet but also because I want to live a healthier life mentally and physically. Dr.Ristimaki is the one to go for when you want to be better. She truly listens, understands what you go through and she really makes you know, she is here for you. It is very rare to find Dr's that care about your health and reasons to fix the now and future rather than just one main focus. Dr.Ristimaki really looks at everything, you feel like you're doing a HEAD TO TOE assessment and what is best for you.

She is incredible and HIGHLY recommended! God Bless Her!

Dr. Sam has been my go to doctor for the last decade. I can honestly say that she has significantly improved my overall health and wellness and life in general. She has helped me when it seemed like other medical professionals couldn’t and I genuinely trust her to oversee my health. She has helped me with a food intolerance that was causing eczema and digestive issues, fertility, pregnancy, boosting my immune system with young kids who are always sick, and most recently she “brought me back to life” postpartum. In addition to helping me improve my physical health, she has helped me find balance in my life and improved my mental health and wellbeing. Dr. Sam is kind, down to earth, genuine and extremely knowledgeable. I give her my highest recommendation and am so grateful for her!

I have been a patient of Dr, Samantha since 2011. She is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive and compassionate, and has been instrumental in my recovery from several health issues that had been on-going for years. I have recommended her to about a dozen family members and friends over the last few years, and I have had nothing but extremely positive feedback. She gets my highest recommendation.

Dr Sam is unbelievable !!!!! The most amazing human I have ever met. The care and compassion she has for her clients health is unbelievable. What this woman has done for me in the short time I have been in her care is more then my family doctor has done for 2 years . Someone with extremely low iron , heavy menstrual periods etc, Dr Sam took the time to listen to me and assess me properly, I was given tests to look outside of the box and it was found that I also suffered from extremely low B12 and vitamin D. The iron I had been told to purchase from my family doctor was not increasing my iron at all, Dr Sam carries high quality, affordable vitamins that in 2 months my b12 and vitamin D moved in a more manageable direction , I’m seeing results in a couple months that I had not seen in a couple years . I am forever thankful to her and her care. I was referred to her from my sister who also adores her and I also have referred one of my good friends to see her as well. I could go on and on but if you need more then how your feeling and your needing to see a naturopath, do it and book with her , you don’t regret it !
Also a special note to the front desk receptionist Francine , the friendliest face you will meet entering the beautiful office . Instantly you feel at home ❤️

Dr. Sam sets a very high bar for all other care providers. I started seeing her 3 years ago and was immediately impressed by her genuine demeanor, her excellent listening and questioning skills, and the approach she took with me in figuring out what approach was best for my concerns. In-person or virtual visits are a consistent experience of friendly, caring, practical help, and she is a necessary part of my self-care. My ailments/concerns have been helped greatly - I feel so much better. I’m now bringing my teenage daughter to see Dr. Sam to get her started on how her best health can look AND to show her what a doctor’s care SHOULD look and feel like. I recommend Dr. Sam to all my friends.
