“Dr. Karla Koch’s breadth of knowledge is matched only by her sincere enthusiasm to help people heal. She really helped me make progress when mainstream medicine could do no more for me. Thanks!!”

“New to the area, I recently had several appointments with Dr. Karla Koch. I found that she is warm, caring, very attentive to details, but most especially that she listens. I think Dr. Koch’s background as a ND, a DOM and being a registered nurse was helpful to me in addressing my digestive challenges. Thanks to Dr. Koch I feel better and better on a daily basis.”

“I am a physician who frequently collaborates with Dr. Koch in the care of patients. I find her approach to be very helpful to my patients, so much so that I send my twenty and seventeen year old children to her for their healthcare. They also like her approach very much. I could not recommend her more highly.”

“I began noticing difficulties with my digestion and a frequent occurrence of gas. After several months and several appointments with medical doctors including a visit to the emergency room, a friend suggested that I consult a naturopathic doctor in my area.

An internet search provided me with the name of Dr. Koch. I contacted her by email and received a response from her almost immediately. I was able to set an appointment with her that very week.

After my first appointment with Dr. Koch, I have been taking supplements provided by her from her office. Since that very first day, I have felt that my body has begun to heal. Each day I feel as though I am closer to good health. My indigestion is much better and the gas problem has disappeared.

I feel totally confident in Dr. Koch and am truly thankful for her. Her understanding of healing has been very reassuring for me. How grateful I am that I found someone with the knowledge to help me. I wholeheartedly recommend her to others who are in need of healing.

I am feeling so much better and am happy to proclaim so from the rooftops!”

“I don’t think words alone can express my gratitude to Dr. Koch of Salubrio Healthcare for all she has done for my life. By the time I found Dr. Koch, my health had greatly deteriorated. I had multiple complications from a surgical procedure that had taxed me greatly and kept me from working for months. I was in pain with severe fatigue. Though a bit of a ‘doubting Thomas’, I was desperate for relief and a return to at least some semblance of functionality. To my surprise, the combination of Naturopathic Medicine and Acupuncture not only started me back on the path to health, but also helped me in ways I never could have imagined. I am still healing, but I am able to work again. I am able to go for walks, resume traveling and have fun in the process. My doubts have faded away as quickly as my health has returned. Life no longer feels like it is slipping away… my life has resumed and flourished.”

“One day prior to competing in a triathlon I pulled a muscle in my back and could not walk or move at all without intense pain. I was ready to pull out of the race, when I decided to try acupuncture from Dr. Karla Koch. Karla was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and skilled, and to my surprise my back felt better almost immediately. I woke up the next morning completely pain free and went on to successfully compete
in the triathlon. I recommend Dr. Koch wholeheartedly and without reservation.”

“I definitely regard Karla Koch as a resource with a wealth of experience and wisdom, and as I am beginning to take the study of herbal medicine more and more seriously, I find myself thinking often, what would Karla say?”

“During my training in medical school I was lucky to find Dr. Koch. Going to her for acupuncture helped me to deal with the stressors of school, and I found her to be knowledgeable in both western and naturopathic medicine.”

“I believe strongly in you and your approach to healing. I also respect and believe in the uncomplicated business aspect of your practice. Thanks for helping me and for providing a much needed alternative to conventional medicine.”

Mark Mellott, Albuquerque, NM

“Sometimes after you get acupuncture, you can’t tell if it made a big difference, but when I was riding my bike after I left [your office] it made a really big difference in how my leg felt. I could really feel it riding to your place, and afterwards it just felt much much much better. I wanted to thank you!”

Chad Scheer, Albuquerque, NM

“I prefer always to seek alternatives to Western Medicine as I grew up with the teas and home made remedies as a child in the Caribbean. Holistic medicine speaks to my heart and makes me feel that I am truly respecting my body and mind. Thank You Karla for being knowledgeable and supportive.”
