Terrible experience. I would not recommend Parsley Health. I paid nearly $2,000 for a membership and then waited months to see a clinician. I was patient with the delay, but after finally having my appointment, I learned that the plan covered only two provider visits. The only actual service I received was a few recommendations for supplements. Given the cost of the membership, I found that incredibly disappointing. When I contacted Parsley to ask whether they would consider a partial refund—not even a full refund—they refused. Communication throughout the process was also extremely poor. It often took several days to receive a response, and on more than one occasion I had to follow up just to get a reply. To make matters worse, I still cannot access the notes from my visit. I specifically requested them, and they have not been provided. For nearly $2,000, I expected substantially more in terms of care, service, communication, and access to my own visit information. In my experience, Parsley was absolutely not worth the money. Save your money.

I really had high hopes for this service. It's turning out to be one of my biggest mistakes in my function health & wellness journey. I paid out of pocket for a Complete Care annual membership at the start of this year, following a good call with their sales rep. Unfortunately, the good times ended there. I assumed I would be seeing a doctor. However, the list of 9 available clinicians included only 3 doctors - the rest were Nurse Practitioners and Physicians Assistants. I don't mean to say that they are unqualified, but they are not doctors. You cannot have a consult with anyone - you must choose based entirely on their profile. The doctor I chose was unfortunately not a great experience, didn't feel collaborative, and basically left me feeling really disappointed. So I reached out to Parsley and they kindly redirected me to a Nurse Practitioner that was recommended based on my goals. My one call with my Coach was completely useless. They basically said, wait until I speak with my doctor. While the experience from a collaborative standpoint improved with the NP, I still felt a lack of connection and understanding. My NP kept confusing which state I was living in, had difficulty understanding my supplements (to be fair there are many), and could only silo in on limited focuses. She made some recommendations, and suggested various extra paid tests for me to perform. Here's where I became incensed: the tests that Parsley recommended are through other public services. Like 3x4 Genetics or GI-MAP. I had to pay the retail pricing to Parsley, plus a $100 "admin" fee to Parsley. Basically it's a fee Parsley charges to order the test for me. Additionally, the price I paid to Parsley is retail - one of the above services 'accidentally' sent me an invoice showing that Parsley paid less than retail for the test. Stop there... so Parsley makes commissions from the tests that they ordered for patients. AND charges patients $100 just to order a test. It continues with Full Script. This is a great service I've used to order my supplements. Full Script is clear that store owners can choose to offer patients a full discount on products (up to the maximum of 35% off) *OR* lower the discount and keep the difference as a commission. Guess which one Parsley chose? Surprise: Parsley offers gives their clients a 15% discount. Parsley is a service that clients are already paying a premium for. And on top of that, they are taking commissions and charging fees to clients. Be aware, and beware.

Save your money... They call themselves "Functional Medicine" but are just another doctor office who will do what the insurance company demands e.g. try to force you to do a Mammogram and tell you that you cannot get HRT without one. I had high hopes but ended up wasting money and my menopause symptoms are still here. First, they told me an Ultrasound in place of Mammo was OK, then when I got one and it came out clean, they changed the goal post and suddenly the Mammo was the requirement to get HRT prescription... The PA spends most of your visit typing, sends you for expensive tests, and then tells you "you need to eat less carbs and exercise"... if I had energy to exercise, I would not be in her office asking for help with debilitating menopause symptoms.

Parsley Health has truly changed my life. As a busy single mom and business owner, I appreciated that Parsley took a comprehensive approach that I had never experienced elsewhere and created a personalized plan that fit my lifestyle. I feel better than I have in maybe five years and leave each appointment with clear, achievable goals. The virtual appointments, personalized recommendations, and thoughtful providers make taking care of myself seamless and enjoyable. I feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for. Best of all, objective testing has shown that what we are doing is working!

I joined Parsley Health in January 2025. I'm interested in root cause analysis that the functional medicine space provides, I was no longer interested in traditional allopathic medicine and covering up symptoms with pharmaceuticals. A co-worker who has the same mindset (root cause analysis), shared with me her doctor whom she spoke very highly of and what I learned through her and her journey made me seek out Dr. Dawn Johnson at Parsley. Dr. J is phenomenal, sincere and I adore her!!! I highly recommend Parsley Health (and Dr. Johnson) if you're seeking an approach to the traditional allopathic health model.

I have worked with other functional healthcare providers before, but Parsley Health is by far the most detailed and comprehensive. I am thrilled to be working with Jessica at Parsley Health. She is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything thoroughly. I always leave our sessions with helpful tools and practical steps to improve my health. Since joining Parsley, I have felt so much better and more supported in my wellness journey.

Working with Ashley at Parsley Health has genuinely changed how I approach my health. She looks at the full picture — labs, hormones, thyroid, lifestyle — and builds a protocol that adapts as new data comes in. When my labs shifted, she didn't just adjust the prescription and move on; she walked me through the reasoning and what to watch for. The portal makes communication between visits easy, and I always feel like a partner in the decisions rather than a passenger. If you want a provider who treats you as a whole person, Ashley is it.

I LOVE Parsley Health. I started with them back in 2021. Even though they can’t bill my insurance, the money paid out of pocket is well worth it. The service is great. My doctor, Dr. Dawn Johnson is the best. The whole operation is the best. Everyone really cares! I have been struggling with various health issues and could never get answers. I feel so much better. I sleep better, I have more energy, no more brain fog. I have tried other naturopaths and all they did was want to sell me their supplements. Yes, Parsley also offers supplements, but they do not push them on you. Everyone that works for Parsley wants what is best for the customer/patient. So glad I found them online! Best decision ever when I signed up! You can’t put a price on your well being!
