Iona, Florida Functional Medicine Doctor

Dr. Tuchinsky literally helped me reclaim my health and life! For so long I have been struggling with my weight and overall well being. I have known for so long that something wasn’t right, but doctor after doctor always told me the same thing...”Reduce calories and increase exercise“. But I was doing these things and eating clean and still could not lose any weight and it seemed like everything I ate I was sensitive to. My inflammation was so high, I was feeling sick or tired most of the time, my body felt like it was shutting down on me, and I felt like nothing I could do would make a difference.

From the the moment I sat down with Dr. Tuchinsky, I knew he was a no nonsense doctor. Everything I was saying about my health he had heard before and he knew he could help me.

I was referred to The Florida Center for Functional Medicine by my neurosurgeon. At first I was skeptical, but I decided to go ahead and follow through. I am glad I did. As a result of Dr. Tuchinsky’s program I have lost enough weight that I no longer feel the need for back surgery. Additionally, the amount of medicine I need for blood pressure control has been reduced and I no longer have to take shots to control my blood sugar.

Dr. Tuchinsky has changed my life. I lived with an undiagnosed autoimmune disease most of my life that left me with so many of the following issues: debilitating fatigue, infertility, digestive issues, muscle and joint pain, insomnia, and anxiety. Once I was given the diagnosis several years ago, the only answer I was given was medication, and a diagnosis of unexplained infertility. No one seemed to have answers for me and I was told to just continue taking my medication.

I was desperate, depressed, and feeling hopeless, and that's when I found Dr. Tuchinsky. I walked through those doors and I haven't looked back ever since. Like many of you, I am a natural skeptic, but as soon as I sat down with Dr. Tuchinsky, my mind was put at ease because unlike all the other physicians I went to, he was looking for the root cause of my issues.

I had a lot of health concerns and brought them to my primary care physician who kept telling me my numbers were in normal ranges and I didn't need to worry about anything. However, my symptoms kept getting worse and I was becoming very depressed. My face was puffy, my joints ached like I ran a marathon every day, my energy was depleted, I had so much brain fog, my stomach hurt, I had digestive issues and just felt like complete crap . I mean I literally walked slumped over and it took everything I had in me to do normal things. Oh, and sleep... I couldn't sleep more than an hour to an hour a half at a time. I was always tired. I finally said "Enough is enough, I deserve better". I decided, like others, I needed to take my health into my own hands. That's when I reached out to Dr. Tuchinsky. This was the best decision I could have made for myself. I have since then found out I have Hoshimotos and several vitamin deficiencies. Once Dr. Tuchinsky put me on a specific individualized plan, within a week to two weeks I already started feeling better.

I've been going to Dr. Tuchinsky for 2 1/2 months and have felt amazingly better, both physically and mentally. I was experiencing low energy, brain fog and pain and inflammation in my joints. After committing to the protocol as instructed, including supplements and diet changes, I feel improvement in my memory, the pain in my joints is almost completely gone and I have my energy back completely...plus some. I would recommend to anyone looking for an alternative to conventional medical care or a holistic approach to see Dr. Tuchinsky. I feel very lucky to have found him here in St Augustine!

I am a proud patient of Dr. Tuchinsky’s in St. Augustine. I came to him because my memory was getting worse and worse. This was scary for me because I was in my 30’s. I went to a traditional medical doctor, and he ordered an MRI. Everything looked good, so he thought my memory problem was due to stress. I left feeling frustrated. I went through Dr. Tuchinsky’s program, and my life has changed dramatically in many ways. My memory is significantly better, I have lots of energy now, and I don’t feel achy anymore. I didn’t realize that I felt so bad until I started feeling better. Dr Tuchinsky is sincere and loves his patients and what he does to help them. My husband says it is like a was dead before, and now I am alive. Thank you, Dr. Tuchinsky!
