Success Stories
Anabertha’s Story
Anabertha came to the IHC with cancer, anxiety, and stress. She did not know what to expect before coming in, and was surprised to be received with respect and hospitality. Dr. Esmundo helped her feel comfortable speaking about her challenges and offered her referrals to many specialty programs. She says that without the IHC, she would be lost.
