Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My husband and I and our parents are patients of Dr. Hirt for over 10 years now. During all this time, he's literally saved my life when I suffered a serious iatrogenic misdiagnosis with invasive unnecessary procedures from another doctor, that nearly cost my life and left me in a wheelchair for over 8 months. Dr. Hirt not only reestablished my health and maintains it to this day, but has taken excellent care of my husband and of our parents at crucial times. He's helped our Moms and Father with delicate issues including HBP, Post-TVAR side effects, COVID and vascular dementia. Dr. Hirt has never lost a patient to COVID! Imagine that! Dr. Hirt is extremely knowledgeable, responsible, educates his patients, and trains his staff on an on going basis to the latest medical treatments backed by research, promoting them to grow in their own talents. His vast understanding of Integrative Medicine, Nutrition, and overall wellness is exceptional, he graduated top three is all his education degrees; hence, he's been able to developed a fantastic supportive supplement pharmacy to complement all allopathic treatments. A true Doctor in all aspects, who goes above and beyond to make sure his patients are well cared for. In addition, his staff is constantly challenged to learn to do be their absolute best to be up to par to his standards, all are welcoming, respectful, and extremely professional, as well. My family and I are extremely grateful to Dr. Hirt and to his team! Highly recommended!

horrible staff and the Dr is out of touch
I went to Dr Hirt in November of 2023 for weight gain and difficulty breathing (long Covid). The initial visit went well. I explained my issues and he ordered a battery of tests. One month later I returned and Dr Hirt went over my lab results and prescribed a bunch of supplements and therapies. Three were peptides I later learned are banned in the USA (three months later) HCG, NAD and MK-677. I had to inject the HCG and the NAD and I developed lumps in the injection site because they never told me to alternate the injection site to avoid this problem. When I received my lab results there was another patient's information and protocol attached to my results. I was also prescribed Vitamin C IV, Laser light blood therapy and Ozone blood therapy. i went a few times for the laser lite and the Vitamin C but soon after stopped going because the person doing the IV therapies was overwhelmed, he was doing multiple patients at one time forgetting to put stuff in the IV and having to added it aft

Unreliable Staff!
Dr Hirt is great. The office is unreliable. Test results are a week or more on a STAT! Perscriptions don't get called in timely manner.

BEST Family Physician!
Was in a terrible bind with a bad case of anemia, Dr. Hirt's office and his nurse Valerie worked above and beyond to help this long process go through. They followed up with calls and I was always in good hands. Dr. Hirt has always been about treating the whole body, watching all levels of blood, cholesterol, looking for early markers for cancer, disease and staying on board with his health regiment (which also include a few supplements) my overall health has maintained exceptional.

Cutting Edge Medicine
Dr. Hirt is an amazing physician who focuses on wellness. The title of his practice says it all, The Center for Integrative Medicine. He integrates western and eastern medicine, with board certifications in both Internal Medicine and Nutrition. Rather than focusing on getting someone well after they get sick, he focuses on prevention. Araceli and Marta are the best, too!

I have been a patient of Dr. Hirt's for over 25 years. His ability to diagnose and treat is phenomenal. He places emphasis on preventative medicine rather than waiting for problems to materialize or get worse. I have always found him to be attentive and sincerely concerned.

Yes, Dr. Hirt gets my highest possible recommendation. Dr. Hirt is an amazing doctor who takes the science of medical practice to an entirely new level. He is one of the few doctors dedicated to prevention of disease and extending healthy longevity. He will also react quickly to any medical situations that may arise with an emphasis on keeping his patients out of hospital unless absolutely necessary. He is one of the frontline doctors in the U.S. successfully treating Covid. My wife and I have many reasons to move from California (including Grandchildren in Seattle), but, we are staying here. No way we want to be that far from Dr. Hirt (which was proven again yesterday when he quickly intervened). And, I/we do recommend Dr. Hirt to our family and friends, without reservation. Over time, Dr. Hirt will get to know you medically in a way that you never thought was possible, and he will make/recommend constant adjustments to keep you healthy, strong and vibrant. One hundred stars!

I cannot begin to express my disappointment and regret in becoming a patient of this practice. Hirt is an unethical and money hungry doctor pushing his “products” while charging thousands of dollars for what he calls “integrative medicine”. Meanwhile, he pays very little attention to detail, has absolutely zero bedside manner, and only serves his own agenda, which is selling his overpriced self-branded “medicine”. His billing practice is more like a lawyer vs. a physician. He charges for everything including speaking to him over the phone for test results. His office is rundown and a mess, while his staff go through a revolving door with every visit. No one seems to be on the same page nor do they seem to communicate. After a year of seeing him and spending over $4,000 out of pocket, my condition did not approve nor was there any path forward. I believe in homeopathic and naturopath medicine, but if you’re thinking about going with Hirt, please do your research and think twice abou

I love this doctor but it is so hard to work with his busy staff. They often don’t send prescriptions out on time. They are a very busy office so it seems they are overwhelmed. You can have long wait times on the phone or even get randomly hung up on. With all that said, I feel it is still worth seeing Dr. Hirt.
