I recently completed a 3-month program with Wellfinity, and it has been a transformative experience for me. The program not only brought me closer to my wellness goals but also served as a profound eye-opener regarding the lifestyle and dietary changes I need to embrace for a healthier life. In this sense, it has truly been a life-changing journey.

I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Ranjitha, whose genuine concern and immense patience in handling my case made all the difference. Her expertise, guidance, and compassionate approach ensured that I felt supported every step of the way.

The Wellfinity team has created a comprehensive and effective program that empowers individuals to take charge of their health. Their personalized attention and holistic approach have left a lasting impact on me.

I wholeheartedly recommend Wellfinity to anyone seeking a structured and supportive path toward better health and wellness. Thank you for this incredible journey!

I'm writing this after completing almost three months of treatment. It has been effective in relieving my constipation, but maintaining discipline with the prescribed diet plan is essential. While the treatment is a bit on the expensive side, it's definitely worth trying if it's within your budget. A special mention to the clinicians, Dr. Ranjitha and Dr. Nishu, who were highly supportive and provided constant monitoring throughout, ensuring steady improvement.

I came to Wellfinity for help with some kidney issues due to an auto-immune condition.

My creatinine was approximately 1.3 mg/dl in June 2024. It had been stable at this level for almost 5 years.

The treatment went off on a different tangent with a diagnosis for some gut issues, fungal infections etc, and some of the steps taken were not the healthiest from a kidney perspective.

For example, I was recommended to consume whey protein daily. This is quite different from the traditional approach of lower protein intake, and more focus on plant based protein for kidney patients.

After following their program strictly to the best of my ability for 3 months, another round of testing was done. and my creatinine worsened to almost 1.6 mg/dl. Multiple other kidney parameters worsened significantly too.

This was by far the worst result in 5 years of continuous testing of my kidneys. It was scary to see a such a sudden decline in just 3 months.

Also, their program is on the expensive side.

I have lost a significant amount of money and my kidney function has also worsened as per test results.

Not recommended for kidney patients.

Functional medicine is an excellent method of wholesome treatment which cures all your ailments. But it requires complete effort and dedication. I had various health issues like allergies, fibromyalgia, arthritis, borderline diabetes etc. Initially I had to go through an intense diet to clear my gutt. And the results were amazing. I lost 5kg. And by body pain reduced a lot. I also followed most of their diet and other practices the doctors suggested like walking barefoot in the sand, grass, drinking sun charged water, spending time in the sun, dry brushing, etc. The Wellfinity team and doctors keep a regular tab on you and give you their complete support.
The only set back is that it's a bit on the expensive side & we need to be ready spend. Finally it's completely worth it. The treatment has helped clear most of my health issues and I feel a lot more healthier.
I'm really greatful to my doctor Ranjitha and to the team.

Thanks & Regards,
Vinitha

The tests were very informative and useful in my treatment. The Nutrionist Rohini went over and above to clarify my doubts, and put me at ease with her knowledge. Willingness to listen and help even outside of her scope of work was great. Much appreciated.

The program helped me streamline my health goals and set me on a path to wellness. I received excellent guidance from the team. They consistently helped me stay on track. The regular follow-up by the team help me continuously improve and stay informed.

Zeba Jawed

Wellfinity's health improvement program is a comprehensive solution to improve overall health and I also magically lost weight without really focusing on it … I lost 6 healthy kilos in 3 months... This program is really wonderful and bahut hee acha aur faidamand. I was suffering from different skin issues across my hands, legs and back and even with different medicine, the itching, redness and dryness was not going. I did not have good bowel movements and used to face gastric issues. But after 4-5 years and different treatment, still I was with no solution.

But by chance I reached out to Wellfinity and teen mahine main hee, I saw improvements in my skin, bowel movements and even other small issues across my body.. I really really felt very happy because now I finally saw someone who was able to offer me a real proper solution and with understanding all my issues.

Their program offers a very personalised approach, with a different combination of healthy eating habits, going back to nature and adding back natural habits into the lifestyle routine. Some of their tips are so simple, like dadima ke nuske, but very effective
The continuous support from a dedicated team of coaches and doctors is at my fingertip. I really appreciated the program's focus on creating lifestyle changes, rather than quick fixes. The program also helps to track progress and make adjustments based on individual health conditions. During the program my itching, redness and patches reduced in flare ups and also the intensity was very very minimal.. and this I saw in the first 3 months.. I am now in the 8th month and I feel so good from inside and my sugar and junk cravings have also disappeared. I am honestly short of words to tell everything because only those who have such issues will understand.
Without them, I will be living with these issues, for not sure how long and what all I will have had to go through. I highly recommend Wellfinity 's program to anyone looking to take control of their health and full wellness jorney. Maybe no one told them yet, it is a great social service they are doing. Special thanks to all the persons in the team and coaches and functional medicine doctors.

Prachi Bhandari

We got know about Wellfinity from a friend.
For our daughter's auto immune condition we were looking for a treatment that was not a temporary fix and did not want any steroids in her system, and Wellfinity was exactly that for us.
The team has been God sent for us because they helped us when we had lost all hope for our little girl to get better.
The whole team was just a message away whenever we needed them, and always supported us through the process, even in times when we had doubts about the process they assured us made our belief stronger.

These 9 months had been very challenging for us as family because the treatment required lots of dedication and food restrictions (gluten+ dariy+sugar+ limited fruits )and it is difficult to make 5 year old do that, but the results are nothing short of miracle.

We know we have to follow this lifestyle forever but it's all worth it to see our little one disease free.

Prabhu Kaliamoorthi

I participated with my wife in the three months gut improvement program created by Wellfinity. The process was very hard, we had to literally survive on protein shake for a couple of weeks. But we are glad we went through it as we noticed visible improvements in many seemingly unrelated health problems that we faced. They were supporting us throughout our journey. I strongly recommend the team to anyone who is willing to make hard lifestyle changes to see improvements in their overall health.

Wellfinity has been hugely instrumental in my weight loss and fitness journey for the last 5 months. I’d tried many diets and supplements on my own and always got overwhelmed by the choices and none of them addressed my core issues of being too tired. I thought I was eating healthy and exercising well and I still gained weight. Wellfinity taught me about deficiencies and their connection to cravings. I love their support - they are prompt in answering all my questions and requests and take things professionally and seriously. Their advice is backed by science and research and it makes sense to me. I’ve seen huge change in my energy levels and weight loss and my cravings have totally stopped which is no mean feat. I know it’s working well as my face hasn’t lost its glow but my stomach has reduced and I really enjoy the nutritious wholesome food that I’m eating. It’s become normal for me to eat this way and I’m not waiting for this program to end so I could go back to my usual life. It’s a full lifestyle change which involves looking at all our daily habits and behaviours, food is just one aspect of it. I really appreciated the holistic approach wellfinity takes in addressing the health issues. I’ve been recommending them wholeheartedly to all my friends who are asking me how I started looking so healthy!

Vikash Santuka

Chronic constipation since years, along with acidity, bloating, and various digestive issues had taken a toll on my health including sleep and other issues including brain fog, lethargy and constant tiredness. I have met and consulted with numerous gastroenterologists all these years and yet none of my issues were addressed. I had started to live with it as though this is how it is supposed to be in my age. But that’s when I came across Wellfinity and I decided to give their treatment and approach a try, since I read some good reviews and feedback about them. So I thought why not give it a try.

I was told it would take 3-6 months to completely heal. But within 15-20 days I started seeing a lot of improvement in my bowel movements, reduced gas and bloating. I started feeling lightness which I had experienced during my younger days and it felt so so good. At first, I was not sure if it was for real, but with each passing day I felt much better to the extent by mood, energy felt lot better. It was like I was bursting with a new found energy.

Really what I appreciated the most was their holistic and functional medicine approach. Even though I went to them with these issues, they looked at my entire body and heard all my issues from big to small and made sure each of them was given importance. And then they made a plan around that involving many many aspects of lifestyle. At first it was scary and I was not sure if I will be able to follow everything but then they made me believe that our body is designed for good health and if we support it well, all issues can be resolved. everything. They gave me guidance for food (but not like a chart etc, but more like teaching me how to fish), being closure to nature, drinking structured water, sleep habits, how to cope with stress and many more such lifestyle related guidance that is not taught anywhere. I now understood much better about how my body works.

Joining Wellfinity's program has been one of my best health decisions of my life. Can’t thank my stars enough for making this possible! Moving from a given up state to now a new found life with more energy, mental clarity, better feeling skin (I didn’t know that too will become better), and rarely any stomach issues, it is just amazing. Almost like many doctors rolled into one and with a solution. Not sure why we cant have more of these folks around, then life and managing health will be lot more simpler and easy. Plus reaching out to them is so easy, at the click of a whatsapp message and they are there to guide you and listen to you, unlike the current system. I like to call them my family doctor in my pocket ????.

Words cant thank the entire team enough. I truly wish and pray for them to help many others like myself.
