What Our Patients Say About Their Journey

Testimonial by S.P., Age 26

I would like to start off by thanking Heather Jeffcoat for educating me and curing me of Vaginismus. I had been married for almost three years before I was referred to Heather.

Thank you for helping me get back to doing what I love. -- A.W., age 32 (completed...

Testimonial by A.M.

She also showed me correct ways to lift and carry my son as well as put him in/take him out of the carseat and stroller. This class was really beneficial and...
