Patient Reviews

I've been going to this practice for over 20 years. I like to come to my appointments with a list of all the things that are bugging me, even the stuff that doesn't seem connected or make sense. Bringing a long, and sometimes weird, list works because Dr. Arden takes a truly holistic perspective to health, and because he cares so much. With love, admiration, and gratitude.

In the years I have worked with Dr. Pinault I have found him to be a skilled diagnostician, a compassionate listener and an intuitive healer. His gentle acupuncture treatments have alleviated the pain from my rotator cuff injury. His successful “New Leaf Stop Smoking Program” has helped my husband not smoke for 41/2 months when no other program has helped him. He is a rare find.

My first experience with the Biomat was amazing. After I got all settled in, I started to feel old aches and pains come back and I thought oh, great, this isn’t what I thought it would be. But then each one went away, sort of from the inside out. Pains just gently melted. It was like a light had been aimed at the pain so I would notice that it was taken away. I went deeper into peace and comfort while I was laying on the mat. My pain level has decreased so much that I don’t take pain meds like I used to. This is a gentle healthy way for your whole body to feel better. I would totally recommend this experience to everyone.

I have been to a few naturopaths and Dr. Arden is the best. He will spend the time to get to know you and knows the right questions to ask. He is a wealth of information and is very helpful with all kinds of issues. I had Covid that came with a fever that lasted two solid weeks. I finally called Dr. Arden’s office late afternoon on a Friday. He came to my house that evening and gave me a “intravenous vitamin push”. My fever broke by Saturday morning and I was on the mend. Amazing! I had Covid again a year or so later and was able to get to the office (after four days this time) where I received another vitamin push. Again, I felt much better the next day. I highly recommend Dr Arden Pinault!

After at least a decade of frustration, going from one doctor to another with all the symptoms of a thyroid deficiency, one doctor (who was recommended by many) finally prescribed a very small dose of one of the thyroid hormones, not for a thyroid problem, but for what he thought was clinical depression. Another five frustrating years of trying to establish the right dose followed, while visiting another half dozen doctors, including so-called thyroid experts or endocrinologists. Fifteen years of frustration and lack of energy ended in one visit to Dr. Arden Pinault’s office. He homed in on exactly the right dose and had me feeling quite like the old self I remembered from all those years ago. Not only that, a lot of the small annoyances of growing older, including aches and pains and perimenopausal symptoms, are fading as a result of Dr. Pinault’s regimen. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone and everyone for the best kind of help, a top-notch physician with compassion and ability.

I haven’t been seeing Dr Pinault for very long but my experience with the Doc has been over the top! My Dad was a Chiropractor so I grew up with alternative health care. Everything I have experienced from Dr. Pinault has been surprisingly above board and I have seen results that I expected but never received before. My acupuncture experience in particular has been very satisfying. I have experienced an energetic movement that I have not experienced before. My results have been immediate, and I have become stronger and healthier than ever before. Not to mention the deep relaxation of the treatment time in the most warm and safe environment I could wish for. Overall, I could spend every week in my Acupuncture treatment knowing my health is in good hands! Just keep swimming, and maybe sing a song!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Arden Pinault’s since he opened his practice in Richmond Beach in early 2001. I’d never been to a naturopath before, so I didn’t know what to expect. What I found was an exceptionally compassionate, knowledgeable, and gifted healer. I have always felt that he respects me as a unique individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. I have been impressed by his thoroughness and diagnostic skills, as well as his multidimensional approach to medicine that blends traditional Western and Eastern systems. In Dr. Pinault I feel that I have a partner in my journey of healing in mind, body and spirit.

Hormone Replacement Therapy has made my life better in all respects and I’m so grateful to Dr Arden for his careful testing, diagnoses and prescribed medicines, supplements, and therapies.Without HRT, I have a hypothyroid and unbalanced progesterone and estrogen, but with HRT all of these are normal, and these normal levels positively affect all my body and my life! I went from being on a physical and emotional rollercoaster to being on a smooth riding quiet Mercedes Benz. HRT helped me go through the different stages of perimenopause and menopause with more ease and predictability in what to expect each day. My pain management is easier and reduced since when my hormones are balanced, my muscles, joints, spine, jaw and head all feel better! My energy level is much improved with HRT too, which allows me to do the things in life I love to do.
