Read MoreI went into Mulberry with the highest expectations. I’d wanted to see a true naturopathic/functional doctor for a decade, and I couldn’t have been more excited. Two things became apparent pretty quickly—Dr. Hutton was not as familiar with MCAS as I’d hoped, nor how it affected women’s hormones, underlying Lyme, autoimmune diseases, etc. Over several visits, I begged for help with horrifically painful hormone swings (brutal due to MCAS and mold), and his answer was to drive in to get an IV for the pain. At that point, I knew not to approach him with any further hormone-related issues.
During my last visit, I asked Dr. Hutton how to pronounce the names of several amino acids. Each time, he told me not to worry about it—I did not need to know. At one point, he essentially said to me that he was the doctor and I was the patient—I did not need to try to learn about my symptoms on my own—that was his job. I simply needed to put down my phone. I found this approach to be demeaning and appalling. Should doctors not be our greatest teachers and biggest advocates for educating ourselves?
Though I believe Dr. Hutton to be a very bright and kind-hearted man who understands how the nervous system can affect the body, I cannot in any way endorse his approach to chronic illness, especially if you are dealing with mold, Lyme, MCAS, or hormone-related issues. You will likely find a better fit elsewhere. That said, I will always be grateful that Dr. Hutton helped me understand the importance of getting the nervous system regulated and that I was dealing with mold-related toxicity. If not for that, it would have been simply money down the drain and an incredibly frustrating experience.
