Testimonials for Elizabeth McMillan

“For a couple of decades, I have struggled with increasing weight gain. Every attempt at weight loss, and there have been many, failed. You name it I tried it. About four months ago I ran into a friend who I hadn’t seen in a good while. I was amazed to see that she had lost well over 100 pounds if not more. It was through her testimony about your weight loss plan that I felt compelled to schedule an appointment. Of course, I was skeptical at the time. But after 4 months I have lost almost 50 pounds, 4 dress sizes and I feel amazing. I hate to call this a weight loss plan as what I have discovered is a whole new way of life. The nutrition plan couple with the knowledgeable, loving and encouraging accountability of Elizabeth McMillan, has changed my life as well as my thought process not to mention spending habits when grocery shopping. This is the first plan that I truly feel is something I can apply to my life each and everyday. It is doable, manageable, affordable, educational and life transforming.” – Kathy B “There are no words to express the gratitude I feel for all that Elizabeth has done for me. Her protocol for treating Lyme disease and its complications works. I have made huge progress on my road to healing, thanks to her knowledge and expertise. I appreciate the time she takes for her clients, finding the answers to our questions. Thanks, Elizabeth, and God bless you.” – Sarah “I’m a 38 year old single mom. I noticed over the last year or so I was getting more anxious, more panicky about every day life. I was losing energy, I was getting tired, very tired but couldn’t sleep. I wore myself thin. I started losing my hair, I started having joint pain so badly I just stayed in bed. I was a emotionally wreck. I cried for days, about everything. I visited my medical doctor for the last year or so and never found answers. She informed me that I would just need to get used to living my life with anxiety. It’s all in my head. And suggested antidepressants. Which I never took, reading the side effects give me more anxiety then I could handle. Some side effects were deadly. I prayed for God to please give me wisdom, I prayed often. I had a very supportive family and church. My friend introduced me to Elizabeth McMillan. She was the wisdom I had prayed for. At my first appointment I was heard, I felt like a person not a number, I felt understood. I had answers. I was encouraged and I was thankful. I’ve been blessed in many ways by McMillan. I want to personally thank you for being real. Thank you for listening when I needed help. Today my anxiety is gone, and feel great! God is so Good!!!” – Betsy K.

Insurance Free Practice

Focused on you, not insurers

We believe in empowering you to have the freedom of choice to determine the best treatment options for your medical needs and avoid constraints placed by insurance companies.

We are an “Insurance Free” practice. However, we want to help you receive any insurance benefits you may be entitled to. After each visit, our staff will provide you with a “superbill” with the appropriate diagnostic and procedure codes. The “superbill” enables you to submit a reimbursement claim to your insurance company for reimbursements. Our physicians at Rose Wellness are considered “out of network.”

Most insurance companies offer some degree of reimbursement; however, you are encouraged to check with your insurance company about reimbursement prior to your appointment. Furthermore, if your insurance company needs further information, feel free to contact our office and our helpful staff will try to assist you. Please note that if you are a Medicare beneficiary, you will not be entitled to any reimbursement from Medicare. All costs for services rendered will be your sole responsibility.
