Evelyne LLorente, MD – Regenerative Optimum Health

I question Dr. Llorente’s judgement by hiring a woman like Tracy. She is without doubt one of the most despicable people I’ve ever run across. I won’t go into details, but she is terrible, and I would stay away from the doctor until Tracy is removed.

Dr. Llorente is amazing. my bloodwork was all over the place — she sat with me for over a ½ hour explaining what each result meant and what we needed to do to correct it. my cholesterol is now within range W/​O meds — hypothyroid levels corrected without synthetic hormones and all other results within range in six months. She is dedicated to helping us age gracefully and keep our health instead of medicating after illness! I’m extremely grateful to have found her!

I came across Dr. Llorente on Unilocal and made an appointment. I have been to so many others for PCOS and other health conditions; she has made a difference within the first 30 days. The labs show the difference and I feel better. I recommended my spouse and Dr. Llorente did the most thorough labs and office visit for my spouse. My spouse is not only healthier, but happier and very positive about her medical condition. She reviews our labs in its entirety and identifies the challenges that we have had. She provided ideas and remedies to help. Most of all, she taught us the balance between clinical medicine and holistic care. The balance and combination has truly enriched our lives. Dr. Llorente is responsive, communicative and offers so much more than an office visit. Her staff is friendly and welcoming. Thank you for helping us reclaim our lives and our health. We learn something new on every visit.

I had been to 4 doctors to help me and each of them diagnosed and treated me according to their specialty. Two internists, one anti aging doctor and one psychiatrist later, I found Dr Llorente. She ran comprehensive tests and caught what others did not. Traditional doctors are ruling our for major illness, Dr Llorete looks closer and discovers deficiencies causing symptoms that are treatable but are not yet major illnesses which other doctors missed. I am two months into treatment and cannot express the depth of my gratitude that I am feeling strong, energetic and healthy again. I owe my health and vitality to Dr Llorente and this has trickled down to my being much more effective in other areas of my life as well. Thank you so much, Dr Llorente!

As progressive as she is, I ran some of her ideas past my OB/​GYN and she has agreed with everything 100%. I am lucky to have both of them!

I happened across Dr. Llorente online after visiting 4 other Endocrinologists over the time since being diagnosed as Hypo Thyroid.
After being diagnosed, the first Dr. I saw was great, but I moved out of the area. The 2^nd I was with for a little over 2 yrs and nothing changed in that time but she was insistent that I was fine. The 3^rd Dr. was a specialist as well, that couldn’t have been less interested, and was a long drive from home. Needless to say, I looked for another Dr. After what seemed like searching forever, I took a chance after reading the reviews and I made an appointment with Dr. Llorente’s office.
There were no bells and whistles or special carpet rolled out for me as some people seem to expect from the reviews I’ve read, but the staff was just the right amount of cordial and professional. When I met Dr. Llorente the first time, I noticed that she has a very solid and calm demeanor about her. She is soft spoken but straightforward. The initial meeting was very detailed but brief, like I said, straight to the point. It wasn’t until the initial blood work came back that things really got interesting.
I cannot praise Dr. Llorente enough. She really takes the time to go through your chart and discuss what areas need work and what areas have improved, etc. She talks to you like a human, and not an experiment or a number. You get the sense that she actually cares about your health and the service she is providing. I can ask her anything and she doesn’t talk down or make you feel like you are asking «dumb» questions. I can actually say that I enjoy going to see her the few times a year that I do. Yeah her office is a little out of «the norm» for medical offices but who cares? I’ve been going to «the norm» for years and it wasn’t working!
The thing I like most is that she offered me an ‘alternative’ medicine that I was never offered from BIG PHARMA in the past. Since being on the new RX, I can say that I am adjusting and feeling a lot better than I have since being diagnosed.
I am confident in the care that Dr. Llorente provides me and I honor the relationship that we have built and I am so thankful that I found her.

I felt compelled to update my review since it has been almost a year. Still absolutely love and respect Dr. Llorente. She knows my commitment to holistic methods and respects my wishes regarding my treatment. It’s been a slow recovery for me since we are actually healing my body and not merely putting a bandaid on it with prescriptions. That being said, I have cried many a visits to Dr. Llorente out of impatience and exhaustion. However, she has always consoled me and reassured me that everything will turn around and get better. I’m happy to say that things have finally started to turn around. She has been right all along throughout my treatment. She is so encouraging and never judgmental. I’m not where I need to be in my treatment but I have all the faith in the world I will get there with Dr. Llorente.

Dr Llarente was a great find! It’s almost impossible to find a knowledgeable integrative dr who still accepts insurance. They’re so few and far between… they don’t need to! I’ve seen her several times now and her staff is always friendly, she is caring and professional and I’m actually getting better (finally!) after my conventional dr told me to just keep taking whatever she prescribed and don’t look for alternatives or worry about deficiencies. I’m so grateful to have found a dr that uses nutrition to balance meds!

If you want a doctor who does not take your calls, does not receive emails, will not go online to turn in necessary form for you like all other doctors who aren’t in the dark ages will. Then this is the doctor for you. I’m fed up — her facilities is like walking on the set of «Lost.» There is even a hideous tanning booth, 4×3 TVs, VCRs, Yes that’s right — VHS tapes and old equipment with knobs and dials that looks like it’s from the 70’s. Her staff is extremely RUDE, uneducated and will even hang up on you. All concerns that you would like to share with the doctor have to go through these staff members as again, she does not take calls. So if they relay your message incorrectly, you may get an entirely off the wall response due to the miscommunication in this office. Really ridiculous experiences here. I’m done. Just like the other Google reviewer stated: «She doesn’t really care about you.» That sums it up.
In the 90’s with an HMO I had better treatment from doctors. I have an expensive PPO plan and this is ridiculous to be treated this way. Absolutely unprofessional staff. Even look at one of the reviews below since there are only a few reviews. The lady said that her staff could be more professional and friendlier which they aren’t.
EDIT — 1÷24÷15: I’ve already found a new doctor based on a referral from an Urgent Care doctor that I saw when I had gotten really ill. (went to Urgent Care 3 times initially due to the unavailability of Dr. Llorente who also does make-​up hobbies, tanning, and God knows what.) Anyway, this referral was AMAZING!!! I’m so glad I made the switch. This doctor saw me 3 times in one day, sat with me in his office and went online for my my SDI forms before we even began a physical, prescribed me my own nebulizer, completed my SDI forms necessary for me to get paid the other 50% of my pay from being out on a sick leave of absence. My company still pays me 50% the whole month I was out [it’s called FMLA] (and this is beyond my 100% paid sick days.) and get this — he progressively pinpointed my problem that Dr. Llorente never ever ever ever ever even linked!!! I didn’t understand why when I get sick (which is very rare) but when I do it can last months! And this winter it turned to pneumonia and I was bed ridden. But he linked it to my sleep apnea surgery! I had this hunch already but no doctor had been able to confirm this. The surgery I had 8 years ago: my tonsils were removed, my adnoids were removed, the soft tissue lining in my throat was removed, and my uvula was removed. (this is a sleep apnea surgery). Anyway in my and my parents generation there was a strong believe across the country that tonsils should be removed. Today in medicine they realize that tonsils help fight infections. With that and the other parts missing I have noticed it takes me longer to get better when I do (rarely) get sick. But it’s also about knowing what medications are the right ones to prescribe and already my new doctor has gone a different route than Dr. Llorente and I’m already starting to feel a change healing wise. I’m really glad I now found a doctor that (1) takes emails, (2) takes phone calls, (3) is extremely patient to all my needs (4) does not mess around doing things other than medicine. (5) is progressive and caring enough to get to the root of the issue.

Dr. Llorente is very thorough and caring. She doesn’t just treat your symptoms, but evaluates your body as a whole. She doesn’t just believe in treating you with medication, she will take into consideration your diet and supplements to make sure you are doing all that you can to heal your body. Highly recommend her if you want to start feeling better and not just be given another prescription.

I can’t say enough about Dr. Llorente. I came to her a wreck. My endocrinologist at Cedar’s Sinai that I trusted to help me with my autoimmune condition basically shoved a pill in my hand and said that if I didn’t feel better there wasn’t much he could do for me. I felt like my disease was going to win. But thankfully I came across a person on a thyroid hormones board who recommended Dr. Llorente. She treated me based on symptoms and she took the time to listen to me. She ran tests that my previous, world-​renowned specialist doctor didn’t even think to run. She took the time to explain things to me. She uncovered multiple vitamin and nutritional deficiencies, prescribed supplements and adjusted my medication to suit me… not what a chart says I should be. What I appreciate more than anything about her is I’m not just another number to her. I’m a person who she wants to help treat and hopefully cure. She is an excellent doctor who is knowledgable in western medicine but also explores alternative treatments. It’s all tailored to suit the individual. I’m indebted to her on my journey to better health!

Dr. Llorente is an outstanding physician who is very knowledgeable about Western medicine as well as naturopathic and integrative healing. She is incredibly compassionate and takes the time to answer all of my questions. She’s meticulous and detailed — qualities that you definitely want in your primary care physician! I’ve yet to meet another physician who is as knowledgeable about the impact of nutrition on health. Most physicians don’t bother to keep up with current research; Dr. Llorente seems to have a genuine passion for learning and keeping apprised of the latest research, much to the benefit of her lucky patients. She has found and solved many issues that my doctors in the past dismissed or did not bother to investigate. I am so grateful to have found her; she’s a doctor whom I feel I can trust.
Visiting her office is always a pleasant experience. The waiting room is cozy and her staff /​nurses are very kind, accommodating, well-​organized and efficient. I’ve never had to wait more than 5 – 10 minutes despite the fact that she takes plenty of time with each patient.
I am so grateful to have found Dr. Llorente and look forward to continual improved health under her care.

Exceptional doctor. I am so happy I found Dr Llorente! I was looking for a new doctor, I got tired of all the pill giving docs who get you in an out in 10 minutes and of rude office personnel. This doctor has it all, she is knowledgeable, caring and has a very nice staff who are courteous and professional. Dr Llorente looks at your whole being before she prescribes anything. She practices western medicine along with a holistic view and that combination is very difficult to find. In my particular case she found issues that I never knew I had or had been diagnosed before. I am very pleased with her and even brought my husband to meet her. He was also very impress and he is planning on consulting with her as well.
She is one of a kind!

Great doctor. Dr. L listens carefully to what patients say and genuinely cares for their well being rather than quickly writing a prescription under 5 minutes. So far I’m pretty satisfied with her except the receptionist can be a bit nicer and caring as Dr. L would be…

I have been a patient of Dr. Llorente for four years. Her approach to medicine is holistic; she looks for natural remedies and treatments, often preventing the need for prescriptions or surgery. As a psychotherapist, I have referred several of my patients to Dr. Llorente, and they have always been pleased with her work.

I do not like doctors. I don’t trust them. However, I had this cyst thing on my arm the size of a golf ball and my girlfriend suggested I go see her doctor, Dr. Llorente. So I went and met her. She was very smart, kind and patient. She made me feel very comfortable, so I decided to have the cyst removed out of my arm, btw it has healed nicely. My husband has gone to her for his shoulder issues and did the Platelet-​Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections, which has helped him tremendously. My husband also had a small emergency and we called the office and he was seen within 45 min of our call the day before Christmas Eve. Dr. Llorente’s staff is great. I love Tracy, Carmen and Christy are always on top of things.
Dr. Llorente, unlike all other doctors where they try to mask your symptoms with medication and probably cause you more harm and even an addict to your meds, Dr. Llorente resolves your medical issues. If your looking for a doctor — look no further Dr. Llorente is a true physician who is concerned with promoting, maintaining and restoring human health.

Dr. Llorente is one of the best! She takes time to understand your needs, thinks outside the box when it comes to providing the best care and really gets to know what’s going on with a person to come up with quality care that gets lasting results. I previously worked in a hospital and never have I had some so thoroughly outline comprehensive lab work in order to get me back to optimal health. Highly recommend Dr. Llorente

I found Dr. Llorente on my natural thyroid support group. I have celiac disease, hypothyroidism, adrenal issues… a lot going on with immune system and endocrine system. I am shedding tears of joy as I write this review. I have my life back because of Dr. Llorente. I feel like a NORMAL person. I am not exhausted all the time and I can do thing I could never have done just six months ago.
She looks for things no other doctor looked for. She found I had vitamin and mineral deficiencies, as well as reverse T3 dominance (people with thyroid problems need to read about this one.) I was doing all the «right» things like juicing and eating healthy, but there were things that had to be tweaked to make it all work.
She looks at everything, including what you are eating and makes recommendations based on you and what you need.
My immune system was so weak before I saw Dr. Llorente that if I got sick it would take me weeks to recover. In December I came down with a really bad case of bronchitis and sinus infection. I went to Dr. Llorente for treatment and her protocol got me better faster than anything I have ever used from my other docs. Now when I get sick, my body fights it better because it is strong from the things Dr. L has me doing.
She will use medication if you need it, she’ll put you in vitamins if you need it. She told me that she will use every resource she can to get her patients well. That in my book is a great doctor. It is what every doctor should be doing, but very few do. I pay out of pocket because she isn’t on my insurance and it is worth every penny. She is wonderful about working with you so the costs don’t get too high. I told her that she can never retire because her patients need her too much.

Dr. Llorente is a very smart, resourceful and caring doctor. Her office staff is extremely kind and considerate. I have only been to the office a few times and felt more concern for my welfare than other doctor’s offices where I have gone for years.
I was referred to Dr. Llorente by a thyroid support group after I was thoroughly researching a doctor who could help with thyroid disorders and hormone imbalances. She is by far, more knowledegable than any of the endocrinologists I have seen and really listens to you as a patient. What was most impressive though is that she understands health issues from a much more complex standpoint. What I have found so frustrating after going to some of the best doctors is that if your health issues go beyond the scope of what they might be familiar, they don’t want to be bothered.
Dr. Llorente is a true advocate in the health field and represents what a doctor should be — try to help a person get better. I have had some unusual symptoms affecting my eyes and she is willing to do the research to try to help. Regardless of what health issue you might be facing, if you are needing a real doctor to care about you and take the time to try to determine what the underlying problem is, then Dr. Llorente is what you are seeking. I drive a considerable distance to see her as she is truly exceptional!

Dr. Llorente is wonderful! I have been her patient for at least 15 years. She cares about each of her patients and goes above and beyond the usual. She takes the time to explain tests and results with you. She is always there when I need her. She has seen me through many obstacles in my life. Her Staff, Carmen and Christy are wonderful also.
I recommend Dr. Llorente to all my friends!
