I first went to Doctor Charles Lange as a final attempt to fix my skin. I had been to doctors frequently since I was a baby. They told me that eczema was an incurable skin disease and that the only things that would help me were various steroid creams and steroid treatments, such as Prednisone. I had been on some form of that for as long as I can remember and couldn’t count how many different kinds. As the years went on, the higher the concentration of steroids got, and so did the price. I later found out after 20 years of this, that all these steroids could have terrible effects on my kidneys and liver. I knew they were just giving me a quick fix, knowing that it would be worse after the medication wore off, with serious long term side effects. I knew there had to be some other way that could help and not hurt me.
I had eczema so bad that it was painful to shower, get dressed, and sometimes even move. I always had open sores and cracks in my skin. I would have huge welts and blisters on my arms and legs. More and more patches appeared on my face. It would hurt to smile, as the skin would crack when I did so. I had nowhere to turn for relief or help. No one could give me hope.
I learned about Doctor Charles Lange and Phoenix Wellness Center through my aunt who had been seeing him and saw amazing results with her psoriasis. Even though the diseases are different, I was willing to try anything to stop the suffering and the steroid cycle I was on. I went in to treat the symptom; Dr. Lange found the root of the problem. I had not told him the fact that I was sick almost every day of my life. Sometimes my nausea and stomach pain were so bad that I would be taken into the emergency room, only to hear another doctor say he didn’t know what was wrong with me. Since I was young, I would go in regularly to doctors to try and find out why I was always sick. No one could give me an answer, so I gave up, knowing that would be how I would feel the rest of my life and that I would just have to deal with it. I finally quit going to doctors and quit trusting them.
I am so thankful that I went to see Dr. Lange, without ever telling him of my stomach problems he knew that I had been suffering from stomach pain for a long time. Dr. Lange knew on the first visit what was wrong. I had Celiac disease, which was causing my stomach pain and skin problem. I am 23 years old and it has been two years now that I have been gluten free, and I have never been so healthy in my life. I would not be where I am now without Dr. Lange's guidance through nutrition and natural healing. It has been a journey of discovery and enlightenment and it has completely turned my life around. I am so thankful for him and his practice. My mother and I always look forward to making the six hour round trip drive to see him, and would travel as far as needed to see him. After having a life full of doctors that I couldn’t trust… I finally found one that I do.
Thank you Dr. Lange and everyone at Phoenix Wellness Center

Most of my life I have been a heavy smoker. After 40 years of smoking it was too hard to quit. I tried everything to stop but with no success. I didn't think I could ever be a nonsmoker. After going to Phoenix Wellness Center, Dr. Charles Lange was able to break down the strong hold of the addiction. After correcting some of the imbalances in my body and prescribing nutraceuticals, Dr. Lange was able to stop the cravings with hardly no effort of my own. I am proud to say I have been a nonsmoker for 1 month and feel like I have never had the addiction in the first place. WOW what a great feeling!!! I was truly amazed at how easy it was to quit, and somehow I know this time its for good!! I have recommended this to everyone I know and urge anyone with any addition to put your trust in Dr. Lange as I did and let him help and heal you. Thank you Dr. Lange and Phoenix Wellness Center!!

I was diagnosed with the E-Coli Bacteria in September 2008 after being very ill and treated for “stomach problems” for 2 months prior to this time. After taking a very high dose of antibiotics for 10 days (which made me even more ill) and was expected to be well. I called the Doctor several times after completing the antibiotics complaining of “just not feeling well” and I was told “It takes time, just give it more time”. I had no energy, was sluggish and bloated and had no desire to do anything.
Dr. Lange came highly recommended , but I dragged my feet at making an appointment. By April 7, 2009 I made the appointment and my only regret is not seeing him sooner. I have not felt this good since July, 2008! I have transformed into a new person with vitality, desire to do anything and everything and a new out look on life. I now have an energy level that is “off the charts” and it is completely due to Dr. Lange's knowledge, strategy and help for me. His attention and caring to me as a whole person is phenomenal!!! You must be willing to follow his instructions and know that he knows how to make you well. He is truly in tune with the human body! I feel renewed and rejuvenated in mind as well as my body knowing he has given me the tools to be well always!
