    "I am now able to enjoy the foods that would cause my body severe pain."

    It was a pleasure to work with Dr. Taylor. I’ve been plagued with food sensitives for a few years. After completing the SAAT test with Dr. Taylor, I am now able to enjoy the foods that would cause my body severe pain. The procedure was quick and relatively painless. I appreciate Dr. Taylor’s wisdom and king demeanor. If you struggle with allergies or food sensitives, I would definitely recommend trying the Soliman Auricular Allergy Treatment (SAAT).

    "...a year later I am still symptom free and my gut is happy!"

    I came to Dr. Taylor because a regular doctor, general surgeon with loads of testing, and a GI doc were not able to give me answers to why I had been having IBS symptoms for 6 years. We still did a couple tests, but nothing as horrible as eating a radiated egg sandwich and standing in an X-ray machine while it travels your digestive tract. Dr. Taylor discovered numerous problems with the micro biome in my gut and healed it with natural supplements. We also discovered foods my body wasn’t a fan of. It took time for my gut to heal, but a year later I am still symptom free and my gut is happy! Functional medicine is real and Dr. Taylor’s commitment to help people have relief with healthy non-surgical solutions is a true passion he lives out. Thanks Dr. Taylor and staff for your commitment to your patients!

    "I'm healed and forever grateful!"

    I sought help to heal my ulcerative colitis. I was diagnosed over 15 years ago and at the time, I was told there wasn’t a cure. However, God designed our bodies so that given the right conditions, it can and will heal itself. Dr Taylor and his team will guide you through this and support you the whole way to get you healed and on the right track to a better quality of life! They have a wealth of information and go above and beyond for their patients. I’m excited to say, I haven’t had a single UC symptom in months! I’m healed and forever grateful!! Trust the process!

    "Couldn’t recommend it enough."

    After having an allergic reaction to shrimp at 12 years old, I haven’t eaten shellfish for over 30 years. After getting SAAT that is all in my past. Absolutely unbelievable. Couldn’t recommend it enough.

  • Trevor F.

    "The best of the best!"

    Dr. Vince is one of the most thorough and compassionate doctors I have ever been treated by. I recommend him, without hesitation, to all my friends and family. The best of the best!

    "More than anything, I feel ALIVE again!"

    When I first came in for the Hormone, Belly fat, and Fatigue Seminar, I was very skeptical that I could be helped. I had experienced extreme fatigue for a number of years and more recently experienced some weight gain despite doing what I knew would work to do a few pounds, my weight was still slowly increasing. Even after coming back and sitting down with Dr Taylor I was still very skeptical. I was taking naps daily just to be able to halfway function through the day. I was drinking energy drinks if I had something important to do but still unfocused. Fast forward to now, I feel a complete difference!! I’m not bouncing off the wall with energy, but I no longer feel the urge to take a nap to get through my days. I don’t drink energy drinks anymore and I don’t even need pre-workout before going to the gym. My overall health is actually better than what I considered to be good before. I now recognize when foods I eat don’t agree with me. More than anything, I feel ALIVE again!

    If you’re experiencing any type of discomfort in your body or questioning what’s going on, I highly recommend coming in and getting answers. You don’t have to live your life being uncomfortable and unhealthy! Drs Taylors were absolutely wonderful throughout this journey!

    "You can't beat the price, and you can't beat the friendly staff."

    Honestly, I can’t say enough positive things about Dr. Taylor and the work they are doing. My 19-year-old son has dealt with severe Alpha gal symptoms for years. He has passed out from accidental contamination of his food, along with becoming extremely ill just from the smell of meat cooking. I was honestly skeptical of SAAT working to cure Alpha gal. All I can say is they’ve made a believer out of me!! My son has had his follow-up appointment. He is eating meat, cooking meat, and back to being able to eat at restaurants without the worry of carrying an EpiPen.

    We had a quick In-N-Out visit to the facility. You can’t beat the price, and you can’t beat the friendly staff. The facility is clean and inviting, and for the price of treating even seasonal allergies with medication you can be treated permanently. It really is a win-win for everyone. I truly recommend giving them a call.

    "I feel so much better and empowered to continue the health journey."

    I was very skeptical joining this program. Most programs over promise and under deliver. I will say that this program is great. I have lost 35 pounds and has given me a good foundation. I have learned good clean eating habits, and I really enjoy the recipes given throughout the program. The workouts at the clinic are fabulous. They push you to go farther than you think you can go. My bloodwork looks so much better, and I was able to come off metformin. Healthwise, I feel so much better and empowered to continue the health journey. Thank you, Dr. Taylor and the team for your support.

    "Thank you for making such a difference..."

    Wow. This year has been life-changing for me in so many ways and the support I received from Dr. Taylor and the staff of TNCIM has helped make it one of the best years of my life. I recently turned 50 and I’m in the best physical and mental health I’ve been in since I don’t remember when. I’ve learned to listen to my body and to take my self-care seriously. I’m now able to be the mom, wife, grandma, and co-worker I need to be because I take care of myself first. This is the first time a medical professional has truly listened to me about my entire body and mind to help me put everything into perspective. Thank you for making such a difference not only in my life but those around me.

    "If I can do it at almost 70 years old, so can YOU!"

    Where do you turn when you have a physical concern that is medically present? You’ve sought answers, you did all that your medical caregiver has asked of you to do, and yet, still fall short of wellness. THIS WAS MY LIFE!

    Having spent 3 years in a local hospital affiliated weight loss program, keeping a food journal that I was told: “Well done, you make great food choices,” yet I continued to gain weight, I still have IBS, and I was still adding more pain to my taxed body. My RA was beyond painful daily, and mobility was so difficult limiting my activities each day. Through all this discouragement I was motivated by words that cut to my core by one of my “specialty” doctors. I have chosen not to validate those words but instead sought out more alternative healthier changes.

    I saw on a social media post for TNCIM and signed up immediately for their seminar. Each point that was addressed was exactly what I believed would address my health concerns. More importantly Dr. Taylor would run specific tests for “JUST ME!” Test that I had never done for me before!
    I won’t go into what was amiss in my body for myself; But I will say this. My life has changed so much since I began to learn and make positive changes that have been so beneficial. I am MOBILE! Inflammation in my gut and my body have improved. Allergies have been so much better since eliminating what I found out I was allergic to. Also, through exercise (yup a word once foreign to me) I have much improved strength and stamina. The effects of my fibromyalgia are lessened, and I have to say the added benefit of weight loss was a delight!

    I would like to encourage each of you to reflect on your struggles then get on board and begin the journey to a Better, Healthier YOU! I can also promise the care, concern, encouragement and listening hearts that Dr. Taylor and his staff have will be there supporting you each step of the way. TNCIM have become my friends and my biggest cheerleader. If I can do it at almost 70 years old, so can YOU! #NEVER GIVE UP!”

    "Call them TODAY and start living again!"

    I want to thank Dr Taylor, Dr Erin, Dr Brian and the rest of the staff for helping me take my life back. After 16 weeks I have lost 5% of my weight and reduced my body fat to 24%! I eliminated fatigue, indigestion, hot flashes, loss of hair, constipation, diarrhea, and 3 of my 5 medications. It also increased my overall wellbeing, happiness and libido! Without their help I couldn’t have done it. I wouldn’t have known how. Don’t put off a better life! Call them TODAY and start living again! If I can do it so can you!

  • Melanie Delaney

    "I would highly recommend seeking treatment if you suffer from allergies."

    My daughter had a problem with breaking out in hives when sitting outside on grass due to an allergic reaction. She received the SAAT (allergy treatment) with Dr. Vince Taylor. She is now able to sit in grass without hives or itchiness. I would highly recommend seeking treatment if you suffer from allergies.

    "I have lost 47 lbs!!!! And I can eat more than 3 ounces of meat at a meal!"

    I always thought it was my fault that I was so overweight, but I’ve come to the conclusion that it was the fault of the many previous diets I have tried. They were mostly low fat and so restrictive that I could not stay on them once the weight loss stopped (usually by 6 weeks in). I would give up because my body refused to lose weight as it had gone into famine mode. That’s not a good way to live. Every time I gave up, my weight went up and my self-esteem went down. So here I am, 78 years old. Weight Watchers would have told me that 1) It is extremely hard to lose weight at my age, and 2) my total food intake would have to be cut back even more because of my age. Well, as of this past tuesday, I have lost 47 lbs!!!! And I can eat more than 3 ounces of meat at a meal! I don’t think my knee replacement surgery would have gone as well as it did had I not lost weight, not to mention the “prehab” and rehab I have gotten from Zach and Marcus. I am eating well, I do not feel deprived, I am healthy and I will be ending December with a weight loss, not a gain. Thank you to everyone at TNCIM for bringing this program to Clarksville. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy 2022.

    "I was able to eat ham for Christmas..."

    I scheduled with them for treatment for Alpha-gal (tick bite) I was diagnosed in July and my family said “they were gonna starve if I didn’t do the treatment”. The treatment was painless and wearing the needles in my ear for 3 weeks wasn’t bad at all. So far I have been able to eat a cheeseburger and I was able to eat ham for Christmas. The staff was super nice and they were able to get me an appt quickly. I have recommended them to many others.

  • Kristin Hale

    "I’m very pleased with the results!"

    I was a little anxious at first to try the SAAT treatment, considering I have hearing aids and it involves placing tiny needles in your ears for a couple weeks. It turns out I didn’t have any discomfort, and I’m very pleased with the results! I was treated for sensitivities to cats, dust mites, poison ivy, mold, and histamine six months ago and am still noticing the benefits! I was able to spend hours at my in-laws twice over the holidays without any reactions to their two cats. I noticed a mildew smell at work a few weeks ago and didn’t have an increase in allergy symptoms, and have had a decrease in indoor allergy symptoms in general. I also picked poison ivy twice this fall without a reaction (wearing gloves still, just in case— although I have still gotten a rash in other places even with gloves prior to getting the treatment). Highly recommend!

    "Dr. Taylor has helped my 2 year old avoid surgery."

    We had seen ENT and they wanted to start him on a strong nasal spray for his adenoids and snoring, the next step being removal. Instead of starting the strong medicine, we chose to bring him to Tennessee Center of Integrated Medicine. Two weeks later, his snoring was almost completely gone. Our son even looks forward to going to see Dr. Taylor and always wants to go first. Thank you Dr. Taylor for helping our son avoid surgery and providing a family-friendly environment!

    "I am feeling better than I have a long time."

    I’m so thankful for the care I received here. I have had gut health issues for years and had not been able to get help from my other doctors. I was able to get actual answers through specific testing and then protocol based on the results. I am feeling better than I have a long time.

    I also received acupuncture for migraines and have had significant improvement with the frequencies of my headaches and migraines.

I am very satisfied and highly recommend them to anyone who needs assistance in making changes to improve your health!!

    "I am healed & realize it was always in my power!"

    Life changing! I was at a dead end road when I discovered TNCIM. I was suffering 7+ years of chronic gut disease (UC) that was destroying my health and overall quality of life. I had been to multiple gastroenterologists, had multiple colonoscopy’s, prescribed several medications, and had tried all the “online fad diets/detox’s” and nothing worked. I was only getting worse. So I ended the cycle of insanity & attended a seminar at TCIM & immediately felt relief because I wasn’t alone & found there were people healing themselves using an integrative medicine approach and I was ready to dedicate myself & get my life and health back. The testing TCIM did revealed things about my health that no “Doctor” I had seen had ever even mentioned. I strictly followed the program & protocol, even when it was difficult, because I knew there was nothing more difficult than living with a chronic disease. The amount of knowledge I gained through the program is priceless. It has changed how I live daily. I am healed & realize it was always in my power! I am so thankful to everyone at TCIM!! I have my life back!

    "They hear you, they see you, they support and teach you!"

    For years I struggled with low energy, brain fog, insomnia, digestive issues and began gaining weight in my midriff area. I went to see my physician countless times explaining something was wrong! She would say everything was within normal limits except my cholesterol was high and I needed to be on a Statin. After researching the side effects of statins I refused to put that poison in my body. I decided to attend a seminar Dr. Taylor was holding and everything he spoke of was exactly what I was experiencing. After a thorough evaluation, medical history and lots of labs, Dr. Taylor explained all the findings. Turns out my cholesterol was due to low thyroid T-3!! Had I taken that statin it would have cause considerable amount of organ damage and never addressed the actual problem. There were other findings and TNCIM has me on all natural supplements to support those systems. Going through the detox and taking supplements I feel 10 years younger, full of energy, mental clarity and dropping weight naturally! I’m getting stronger and healthier every day. Dr Taylor and his team of Doctors are knowledgeable, thorough, compassionate and truly want to help people live healthy, quality lives! They hear you, they see you, they support and teach you!! Thank you TNCIM team, you all have added years to my life.

    "After 3 weeks I am allergy free."

    2 years ago I was bit by a lone star tick and developed the alpha gal allergy and haven’t ate red meat or dairy for two years. After 3 weeks I am allergy free.

    "So far it is working great."

    I am getting treatment for Alpha-gal. So far it is working great. I am very happy with my results.

  • Linda H.

    James Taylor with Linda H.

    "Thank you ... for giving me my life back!"

    I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. For the past year I have had horrible pain, extreme weakness, nausea and overwhelming fatigue. My mobility was very limited and consequently I had put on much weight. I was pretty much restricted to bed or my recliner. Any activity resulted in shortness of breath. I was lucky to be able to accomplish one task a day. I knew that partnering with TNCIM would be a significant commitment as I live in East Central Indiana. Dr. Taylor was very clear upfront that it would be an 80/20 partnership – they would provide 20% of the treatment, coaching and support but 80% of the work would be on me. I was so miserable with such poor quality of life I felt I really needed to make this commitment. This life was not what I had planned for retirement. They have made the long distant interaction so easy for me with phone conferences, zoom meetings and emails/text messages. I have had to make face-to-face visits only twice. I have completed 11 weeks of my journey for a new life and I can’t believe the difference it has made. I am no longer confined to my bed or recliner. I exercise 3x/week, take my dog for walks at least 5 days a week and feel like I have energy to burn. I even washed my windows inside and out a few days ago. I am doing yard work that I have not been able to do for several years. I am no longer short of breath with activity, not constantly weak and fatigued and all the nausea has gone. In addition I have lost 30 pounds as a side benefit. Seriously, at times the journey has been challenging ( especially the last week of detox) but the support from this team has been phenomenal. I had made up my mind I was going to give this journey my very best effort as I was desperate to feel better. I decided I was no longer going to live to eat but eat to live. I thought about everything I ate and tried some new foods and ways of cooking. I found that many foods I had not tried were actually good and I have enjoyed cooking again. I am getting ready to go on vacation in a few days. Instead of thinking what will I be able to do, I am planning as many adventures as I can get in. I am even planning to do a hike in the mountains. There are no words to explain the difference. Family and friends just can’t believe the difference in me in such a short time. Thank you, Dr. Taylor, Erin, and TNCIM for giving me my life back!!

    "I have seen great improvement in my overall health."

    The care and concern that I receive from the entire team at TNCIM is remarkable. In the 2.5 months that I have been working with Dr. Taylor and his team, I have seen great improvement in my overall health. I have struggled with a chronic illness for 17 years and feel better now than I have in the last 10 years. I actually feel like I have my life back. I have energy to do things, I can enjoy cooking again as I can follow directions/instructions as they now make sense in my brain; I am not scared to drive long distances by myself as I am not fearful of not knowing where I am or forgetting where I am going; I can read as before I started working with Dr. Taylor and his team I couldn’t comprehend what I was reading…it was just words on paper. Now I enjoy reading again and have read 4 books in 2 months, which is a big deal for me and I can journal and appreciate what I am writing as it makes sense to me as before it was just words on paper with no meaning. I know with my illness that I have a long journey ahead of me, but for the first time, in a long time, I am hopeful and positively optimistic that I will one day overcome the illness thanks to the help of EVERYONE at TNCIM!!
