Success Stories

Mark D.

“When I found Dr. Jack Wolfson, I was really struggling, physically and emotionally. My main issue was atrial fibrillation. The symptoms bothered me and the local cardiologist was only offering drugs or an ablation. After meeting with Dr. Jack, I had a new confidence that I could conquer AFIB and feel great again. Here we are 4 years later and I couldn’t be happier. My health and energy are great and I take zero medications. Thank you Dr. Wolfson and the team at Natural Heart Doctor.”
– Mark D.

“Dr. Wolfson has been extremely helpful. I have learned much from his website, including the most comprehensive information on AFIB that I have found in one place. Under Dr. Wolfson’s guidance, I have managed to get off my blood pressure meds ( after more than one year of afib issues! ). I was also able to replace the drug for afib with his suggestions and therefore, I no longer require the propafenone either.  Thanks to all of you at Natural Heart Doctor!”
-Elke K.

“Eighteen months ago, I was diagnosed with Afib. After a few visits to the hospital emergency room and a cardiologist, I began to question if there might be a better solution. I was referred to Natural Heart Doctor by a member of my medical sharing facility. Working with Dr. Lattanza showed me how nutrition and lifestyle play such a vital role in heart and overall health.  What surprised me most about this experience is that it is possible to make wiser nutrition and lifestyle choices, that will heal and maintain the body that God gave me. Thank you, Dr. Lattanza!”
-Kathleen M.

Understanding Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is the world’s most common heart rhythm disorder, increasing stroke risk five‑fold and doubling the chance of heart failure. Most doctors reach for drugs or ablation, yet these band‑aids don’t address why your heart fell out of rhythm in the first place.

Why Conventional Care Falls Short
  • Medications don’t treat the root cause, they simply mask symptoms.
  • Medications come with side effects that can cause fatigue, dizziness, and dangerous nutrient depletion.
  • Ablation often requires repeat procedures and may create new arrhythmias.
  • Little guidance on diet, lifestyle, or environmental triggers that are the root cause of AFib.

More Success Stories

“Dr Lattanza and Ali Richmond have both been an invaluable source of knowledge, support and guidance in my afib journey and a blessing in my life. I did so much research and reading on my own before I began to work with them but without much success. Together they have recommended tests and supplements and lifestyle approaches to put me on the correct path to discover the root cause of my heart arrhythmia. I am so glad I made the choice to work with them and the Natural Heart Doctor team.”
-Noreen C.

“I was diagnosed with AFib and prescribed two meds to which my body immediately reacted. Through Dr. Wolfson’s thorough diagnostic assessment (90 minutes) he turned to me and stated: “I am going to reverse your AFib.” One year later I am feeling so much better with specific supplementation, as well as the personal coaching I receive from Ali–Dr. Wolfson’s health coach. My heart is almost 100% stable, which is a huge contrast to last year. I have learnt a lot about managing stress and how it will affect my heart and gut.”
-Elaine M.

“I had some Afib events. I suspected for years that I had mold in my home, only finding out two years ago. After reading Dr. Wolfson’s book, started a natural process to remove the mold.  In July I started with Dr. Lattanza, who I see as the most caring, kind, and knowledgeable professional. I had testing done, which told me so much information. Dr. Lattanza put a plan in place immediately. After several months, I had retesting, and things were looking so much better on my blood work. I haven’t had an Afib event since I started using the strategies from Natural Heart Doctor. I’ve learned so much from this group and I highly recommend them. Huge thank you to Natural Heart Doctor!  I’m so thankful to have Dr. Jack Wolfson at the helm.”

About Dr. Lauren Lattanza NMD, FACC

Dr. Lattanza Office Visit with Patient

As a Naturopathic Physician, I am trained to treat the whole person and get to the root cause of disease.

I went to Arizona State University where I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in psychology with a depth in physiology and minor in Spanish. After my undergraduate degree I was working on prerequisite classes towards medical school, which is when I came to learn that my values identified best with the principles of naturopathic medicine. I knew that I wanted to help patients identify the causes of disease and be able to offer treatments which would improve their health rather than simply treating symptoms.

I dedicated the next 4 years to the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine in Tempe, Arizona where I attained my Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine. I served as Class President all 4 years, Board of Trustees – Student Trustee, spoke as the Club President for our branch of Toastmasters, and was voted by my peers and attending physicians to earn the Outstanding Leadership Award for the Class of 2020. Throughout medical school I took it upon myself to work alongside MDs, DOs, chiropractors, and functional medicine practitioners in addition to naturopathic physicians.

As a Spanish speaking student, I was able to volunteer with community clinics around Phoenix and provide free healthcare to low-income families. Due to this combined exposure, I came to find my passion in treating cardiometabolic and digestive disorders that are all too common, yet largely preventable. I took the opportunity to learn the broad spectrum of healthcare so I can ensure that I am able to provide my patients with the best options.
