Glen R Luepnitz Phd

I didn’t find Glen through ads or google searches — I found him because one of my contractors was raving about him and said he’d be a great resource for food allergy /​sensitivity concerns. Since then, it seems most people I mention his name to say, «I’ve heard of him. Everyone says he’s awesome.» I agree.
Here’s been my experience:
As highlighted in other posts on my «Doctor Doctor» list, I had a long list of diagnosis that added up to a whole lot of nothing. I figured out the food allergy component of it, but wanted help optimally managing that as well as my other health issues. I also wanted to find out what I should probably take as a supplement indefinitely and which ones I could stop taking once I got myself healthy again.
Visits with Glen will include taking into account your ancestry and genetic predispositions as well as charts and medical studies to back everything up. I’m a read the original source material kinda lady so I appreciate this immensely; especially in a a field full pseudo nutritionists peddling snake-​oil remedies with their associates degree certifications.
His advise is researched, spot — on, and helpful.
Cost and Billing:
Over the last 7 years or so I’ve seen Glen maybe 4 or 5 times. This is significant because it shows that he’s not one of those nutritionists that is trying to get you to come visit every 6 weeks for the rest of your life. He will do all he can to give you the most information in the most time and cost efficient manner. No, he doesn’t bill with insurance, but… one visit with him just may be the same as 10 co-​pays you may to someone who does.
Cost of supplements:
Also, many nutritionists try to make the majority of their money off of add on supplements that I suspect they get the biggest percentage of profit from. Not here. After my first visit, I literally took the list of suggested supplements and googled around for a few hours to double check that his office had best prices. He did. I also appreciated that I wasn’t pressured into leaving with any supplements or even purchasing from them at any point. My last visit, I came in with the labels from what I was taking currently and Glen went through each one saying, «this is great, this is a good one, this one you probably don’t even need, this one would be better in the methyl form… «. Not once saying or even implying that I needed to consider his version. He really just cares about you being healthy. If picking up a bottle with him is convenient, great. If it is while you are in the grocery store, great.
Pregnancy:
Lots of providers run away from pregnant patients not wanting to deal with the difficulty of advising a woman during this important life stage. Glen was awesome. I wanted to double check all I was doing to make sure it wasn’t too much or too little and that I wasn’t taking things that were inappropriate. He confidently helped me through that web of «yes» and «no» things to do.

I second all the positive reviews here. Dr. Luepnitz is amazing! Spend an hour with him on whatever is ailing you and he’s likely to find a way to help! I could write for an hour or more about all of his strengths, but many reviewers have already said everything I can say. He’s smart, caring, takes the time to listen, and absolutely knows what he’s talking about. Spend an hour with him and you’ll see…

It is not easy to sum up the attention to detail that DR Luepnitz gives me regarding my current state of health as well as the genetic and historical factors that play a heavy hand in my life. He is accessible, his communication style is clear and direct, educational and informative. There is no one else like him. When you are ready for a wake up call that will return lost energy to you, restore your faith in yourself, make your appointment to see Glen Luepnitz! Don’t wait too long, you only have proactive results to gain.

very smart guy who has helped many of my clients and myself. book an appointment and you’ll be glad you did

I’ve written a more complete review of Glen Luepnitz practice under N4H Research which is the supplement store that goes along with the office consults. Because some may not realize that N4H is also the website and store I’ve added this review.
I’m a big fan. More detail is at:

Dr. Luepnitz is great! Addressing a 1 star review is why i’m writing. Luepnitz was officing in my oncologist’s office when i first heard of him, always intending to go. It took me a year or two after my chemo to see him and i wish i had gone sooner. I had so many people advice me to see him, from oncologists to naturopaths. He is so incredibly knowledgeable and finally i found someone who puts the human body together as one working unit instead of addressing just a symptom. What a breath of fresh air after going to an endocrinologist’s office. Talk about wasting my $!
If you don’t hear back from someone via email quickly enough you should call if you think it’s an emergency. I did have to call or email Dr. Luepnitz after my initial visit because his recommendations were not working as well after a couple of weeks. Which i would think would be common since all of our bodies are a little different and actually change chemically when new things are introduced. So Dr. Luepnitz called me and told me how to change the time of day i took my supplementation to improve my issues. Who would’ve thought that little adjustment would make a big difference. No appt. or extra charges were necessary and i appreciated it greatly!
I appreciated that he recommended a large list of foods (that I really like) to eat plenty of to help me. The supplements he recommends are available outside of his office but they are cheaper from him and more convenient and he automatically recommended outside sources for me to try like the Vitamin Shop.
On top of it all, he came across to me as a very well balanced, very caring person who is a very keen listener. Another breath of fresh air, to find a medical person who really listens and then explains to you why your body is doing these things.

I have been a patient of Dr. Leupnitz since 2007. He is wonderful! He has helped me manage my IBS which was pretty severe and various other issues. Conventional medicine has been an issue for me because of its side effects. Dr. Leupnitz has given me options that honestly have worked brilliantly for me. I am very pleased. I would honestly recommend him to others. He is a very nice, caring man. He has a lot of knowledge and he really wants to see his patients feel better. If conventional medicines do not work for you or you want to look at some other options, then call Dr. Leupnitz. He is worth the call!

Dr. Luepnitz is one of the most brilliant medical experts we have ever encountered, and he helped our family get back to a normal life. The short version: my wife was 36 and virtually bed-​bound. Her muscle/​joint symptoms were so debilitating that she could not care for our 1 year old son. These symptoms were non-​existent prior to her pregnancy, but her condition worsened dramatically in the year post-​delivery. She had seen numerous specialists with similar outcomes: an uncertain diagnosis, at best, or told there was nothing wrong with her at all, at worst. Dr. Blevins, her endocrinologist, and Dr. Seeker, her OB/​GYN, are both two of the best doctors in Austin, and they highly recommended Dr. Luepnitz. We took their advice, and have never been more thankful!
Within 3 weeks of treatment, she was markedly different. Within 3 months of treatment, she was at 80% strength. Her diagnosis is complex, but we have been able to treat it with minimal drugs, a few supplements, and diet change (gluten free, low-​glycemic). (Incidentally, any supplements he recommends can be purchased at other locations as well, but after we researched, we discovered that his prices were usually 20−30% cheaper than other retail locations.) His office is incredibly courteous and kind, and he is absolutely accessible. If she needs advice in between visits, he always responds to emails in one week or less (unless he’s on vacation). Further, he doesn’t push unnecessary follow-​up visits. He truly has a heart for people, and a unique gift for understanding the body as a whole. I cannot imagine where we would be without him. Since working with my wife, we have recommended other friends and family members, and their opinions of him are just as favorable as is ours.
Yes, most insurance plans do not cover his services. If his visits were $ 1,000 each, they would be well-​worth it for us, because it has been that much of a life-​changer. A visit with Dr. Luepnitz is an investment in your health. As for the negative review, when my wife had an adverse side effect to something in her treatment plan, we called his office, and had a response the same day regarding how to change her treatment, and it worked. If you intend on using hiis services, you must follow his plan on a regimented basis, and have swift communication with him if something isn’t working as hoped. Dr. Luepnitz can be trusted with your health: Our doctors highly respect him, and we feel forever indebted to him.

I have known Glenn Luepnitz since 2003, when he was part of a team treating me for Stage II Breast Cancer. I believe that as part of the ancillary treatment I received from Dr. Luepnitz my recovery from treatment (chemotherapy and radiation) was much easier, with fewer side-​effects.
He is truly a polymath, and has a wide-​ranging knowledge base. I am having trouble trying to imagine the outcome described by the negative review that has been posted. I do believe, however, that every penny I have even spent with him as well-​spent. I also know he will try to find the least expensive, most effective treatment sources for patients.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for aid, and have recommended to others.

Dr. Luepnitz needs a much better review and I need to set the record straight. ( Unilocal is filled with negative reviews so take them with a grain of salt please)
I went in to see him after being recommended by a close friend and co-​worker. I loved the information I received. I saw Dr. Luepnitz before hip surgery for core decompression and wanted a little extra help to aid in the healing of my hip. I CLEARLY understood that insurance wouldn’t cover anything that remotely sounds like preventative medicine… you have to be dense as spanish oak to assume other wise.
Our meeting lasted one hour and I knew that I would be drinking from a firehose of knowledge so I sat back and soaked it all up. I found out a lot about what drives me to be an athlete, why my lungs are bigger than most, why I don’t process alcohol the same as everyone else and why a cut takes longer to heal. It was all a lesson in oxygen uptake. Oxygen is the key to life as a human on this planet and most of us are running around with a clogged air filter. After leaving his office with a bunch of supplements I was optimistic as anything I did to help my situation was worth it in my mind. I know how important the mind/​body connection is… couple that with sensible supplements and you have a great plan of attack.
Healing is up to you… always. I’m using Gluconic DMG, NAC, NEO 40, methyl folate and Vitamin B12… all for a genetic defect I carry. Why go through life inhibited? I’m essentially on the same playing field now as 25 year old boys now and I’m 40. He did not recommend anything that wasn’t necessary. ANY DOCTOR CAN BE ACCUSED OF GETTING IT WRONG AT TIMES. I went to three hip doctors before settling on my current surgeon. Do your due dilligence. Dr. Luepnitz carries a very large and established pedigree with him. The negative reviewer lives in the state of worry it seems and that is always going to be detrimental to one’s health. Most Americans are conditioned to the blame game, and are willing to point the finger at someone else. Did the negative reviewer tell you of their eating habits? Drinking habits? Lifestyle habits?
Health is much more than a pill people. It’s mainly up to you. Go see Dr. Luepnitz and you will be glad you did. IF you are a hypochondriac, don’t go see him as he won’t «heal» you. That is ultimately your decision and no one else’s. I feel better than I have in years and I owe it to a three fold effort between me, my surgeon and Dr. Luepnitz.
On a side note about NP H.‘s post. She’s had 12 posts on Unilocal.8 of them are 1 star reviews. Law of Attraction is a powerful thing don’t you think. You get what you give.

I went to him as a nutritional chemist to help solve some musculoskeletal and connective tissue issues along with energy issues in hopes of being able to work out more and feel better on a daily basis.
Member Comments:
While I was impressed with his office and staff initially, my overall experience is quite negative. He charges alot and it is not covered by insurance which I was willing to do, if I got a good result. I ended up paying alot of money for appointment and supplements that his office sells and felt worse than I have ever felt in my life after being on the supplements for a few weeks. I cut back and felt better, but not back to normal, then went back to his dosage and felt terrible again and finally weaned myself off of everything. Now that I have been off of his supplements for more than 30 days, I feel almost normal, though I do have some residual issues of concern that I must now go to a medical doctor to be seen for (more time, worry and money). I am worried that his treatment has caused some kind of permanent damage.
In addition to harming my health, they offer email question service which I thought was great at first. However, they take weeks to answer emails and when the email is about damage being done and suffering, taking weeks to answer allows an already bad problem to get worse. Then, when they did answer, instead of addressing the cause of the issue or offering any insight, they simply told me to buy more and different supplements and make a $ 90 office visit appointment.
After a great deal of worrying, a loss of money, time, and damage to my health, I didn’t think there was much accountability from them to help me or much caring about me as a patient. My overall sense is that it is a supplement mill with expensive consults based on generalized guesses about your constitution and not a health practitioner office that has patient’s welfare at heart.
I would not recommend going to him unless you want to gamble with your most precious commodity in life — your health.
