“Functional Medicine removes and repairs the cause instead of band-aiding the symptom”
Has functional medicine reduced symptoms and/or fear? Offered you a better quality of life? Helped you to achieve a health goal or ‘given your life back’? We’d love to hear from you!
“It’s hard to find a nutritionally minded MD. Unfortunately, the pharmaceutical industry has far too much influence on what aspiring MDs are taught in medical school. As a result, doctors rarely turn to nutrition before writing a prescription to treat a symptom. Dr. Zub’s approach to health and wellbeing is downright refreshing. She takes the time and administers the necessary test to understand the underlying cause of chronic conditions rather than just treating symptoms with medication. It’s probably what all doctors did 100 years ago. It’s brilliant, and I’ve never had better health as a result. If I could give her 10 stars I would. If you are serious about your health, this is the place to go.”

“I came to 4 Better Health 2 years ago with severe stomach and eczema issues and started working with Dr. Zub. Today it is almost hard to believe it was my reality, as all my stomach symptoms have been resolved (I don’t remember exactly how long that took, but less than a year) and eczema has improved by 90%. Initially, when Dr. Zub said she could help me, it was hard to believe given how bad my symptoms were and for how long I had them. Yet today I couldn’t be happier with the progress.
If you’ve tried everything else (better if you don’t wait that long, of course) and still cannot resolve your issues, I would highly recommend 4 Better Health to get you on the way to your better health!”

“Worth. Every. Penny! I have loved my experience with Lisa Vasile at 4 Better Health. It is SO much more thorough than traditional medicine practitioners I have visited in the past. They truly look at your entire health history and how that impacts what you’re experiencing today, which is incredibly helpful. Lisa knew exactly what tests to order, explained everything to me in detail (but in a way I could 100% understand), and found the root of my issue after just one appointment. “
– Grace Lemire
“I am beyond happy! My visit with Lisa Vasile was outstanding. After more than ten years of medical gaslighting with my endometriosis symptoms I found for the first time someone who TRULY understand the nature of it and knows what to do to help. It was incredibly validating and after just one visit I feel I got so much benefit. I have a path forward with someone who looks at me as a person. This is invaluable. I also had a great experience with the IV/shots clinic. I will be back here forever!!”
– Federica Torri
“Thank you Dr Zub for your time and care. My personal life is truly in turmoil right now and lifestyle change is never easy. However, with you in my corner, it makes it easier. It feels good to talk to someone who genuinely cares for her patients. It shows. Thank you.”
– Bob
“If you are looking for someone to actually listen to you and trust that you know your body best, Lisa Vasile is who you want to see! She is wonderful, comprehensive, knowledgeable, and compassionate. I can’t say enough good things about this practice. Thorough, compassionate, and they get to the root cause! Unlike any other practitioner, I have never seen before.”
– Rania Makkas
“I have worked with Functional Doctors internationally for 12 years. “4 Better Health” is outstanding. “
– Andrew A. Mackay
“Dr. Zub is the best doctor that I ever went to. Her knowledge and compassion are above all others.”
– Tina Morin
“As a healthcare provider and practice owner myself, I owe much of my improved health this year to Dr. Zub. This is truly what healthcare should look like, not sick care. I had been dealing with a plethora of digestive issues, skin issues, chronic fatigue, stress, and just not feeling like my old self. I had been to 3 different specialists and 3 different primary care physicians who told me to basically just deal with it. Dr. Zub took the time to listen, understand, doing an extremely thorough work up and was able to find that my gut needed quite a bit of help, my labs weren’t quite where they should be for a 30-year-old, and that I had a parasitic infection.
Her treatment approach is very targeted and has worked extremely well for me. Even after my initial consult she put me on a supplement that felt like it gave me my energy back. She has helped guide me through all the lifestyle and dietary changes I needed to make with lots of positive support and has been very responsive to my emails with questions as well.
I’ve had 3 visits with her and feel like I have gotten my life back! I am more than happy that I invested into my health here and am referring to plenty of my own physical therapy patients here as well who have also come back to me very pleased. If you feel like you’ve been everywhere, you can’t get to the root cause of your issue, and providers aren’t spending enough time with you…you need to go see these people.”

“Lisa Vasile, NP has been so incredibly helpful and informative with the treatment of my sons Crohn’s Disease. She has given us not only realistic hope that we do not have to use medicine to manage this but steered us in the direction of holistic supplements and diet as a way of management. Her knowledge and compassion is priceless. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone for medical issues or who just wants to feel better but is unsure on how to go about it. I have just finished the 2-week cleanse with Lisa and have honestly never felt better, a true eye opener about clean eating and enjoying whole foods.”
– Susi Brown Keyes
“I was very impressed with the kindness and welcoming feeling from all the staff. The office is calming and inviting and meeting Dr Zub was truly inspirational. Her profound knowledge of functional medicine and her passion for wanting to help you achieve optimal wellness was inspiring. Her ability to listen to your issues and the time she spends with you will not happen in a traditional medical office. The moment I left the office after my first appointment, I felt ready to make some immediate changes to heal my body. I highly recommend Dr Zub and her team if you are interested in better health.”
– Sherri H.
“Informative, professional, current (so important!), and pleasant! I highly recommend them!”

– Marjie McDaniel
“I am so happy to have finally found a doctor who takes the time to listen, think independently about my unique situation, and make decisions based upon common sense, and the totality of information available.”
– Tracey Ingle

“After suffering for over 2 years and seeing many practitioners (who often dismissed my fatigue & pain) Dr Zub adjusted my medications and supplements. As a result, my baseline functioning and health is finally better. Dr. Zub works as a partner with you the patient, is earnest, humble and actively learning She is a Gift. “
– C. G., Needham MA
“I feel like I have finally found a physician who is willing to work as a partner with me with the goal of improving my health. Dr Zub is an outstanding physician both from a diagnostic and a Functional Medicine perspective. I’ve recommended her to many of my friends.”

“4 Better Health embodies the true meaning of holistic healthcare! Thank you, Dr. Zub, for taking a genuine interest in each aspect of my life affecting my health and vitality; and for taking the time to educate me on the ways in which my body functions on a metabolic level, and the things I can do to better manage my energy and well-being!”
– Colleen Adams
“I was exhausted and in pain- aching from my neck to toes and waking up 4 or 5 times a night. My doctors told me it was just old age. Within a week of taking a few supplements and small changes to my diet recommended by 4 Better Health; my pain was drastically reduced, and I began sleeping so much better. I am doing much more than I had been able to do in a very long time, my spirits are better, my outlook is better, and I couldn’t ask for anything more. I would recommend this practice to everyone.”
– Rose Ciampa, 83 year old
“Finding 4 Better Health was a blessing after many years of traditional medicinal doctors /Endocrinologists being unable to get me to feel optimal. Dr Zub listened to me, truly heard me & devised a proactive plan for me to have a better life. My body is still healing, but I am no longer barely functioning to get through my daily life. I can exercise again without being completely depleted of energy. I have been able to successfully lose 20 pounds. I feel I can always contact Dr. Zub with any questions or concerns I may have. We continue to work together to find the right course of action for my health. I can’t say enough great things about their practice.”
– Linda LaCamera
“I love going to see Sophia! She listens and is attentive to my overall health and goals. She spends quality time with me and provides many alternative solutions than my regular doctor. I am very happy with 4 Better Health! “
– Sally F.
“Words cannot express how grateful I am for the individualized care I have received from Lisa at 4Better Health! If you or someone you love is suffering with an auto-immune condition, want more energy and less pain and are looking for an alternative to traditional medicine, you have found it! With their help you will be amazed at the power you have to change your path.”
– Rebecca Alferes
“Prior to working with Lisa, I’d have to be home-bound one day every other weekend in order to deal with my problem. Now that I don’t need to do that anymore I’m back to hiking/mountaineering, kayaking, bike riding, snowshoeing, being with friends, and spending time in the White Mountains. I am SO thankful for all 4 Better Health has done for me. You had a MAJOR hand in getting me back into this kind of shape [and I’m looking forward to getting even stronger and more fit]. I feel in command of my life again and I am enjoying doing all the outdoorsy, active things I love to do! What a gift you have given me!”
– John Curcio
“In a very short amount of time, Dr. Zub has been able to identify and address the underlying chronic health issues that I have been dealing with, that other doctors were unable to do. I love 4 Better Health’s approach to treat the entire person through a therapeutic partnership and get to the root of issues, not just throw medicine at a symptom. I truly sing her praises and have already referred others to the practice. I truly wish I had found Dr. Zub a long time ago as she has been life changing!”
– Diane Tamagno
“I’ll rave to anyone who will listen about the care 4 Better Health provides personally. I can’t even begin to explain how much more thorough they are in both what they examine/test and their explanations of results and diagnoses than any of my previous medical experiences. But the best part is how they listen and express compassion. I trust my care is in excellent hands. I have only trusted one other doctor in my lifetime, granted I have anxiety and social phobia, but for me being able to trust you immediately is a huge deal. Finally, besides my sleep doctor, you are the only medical professional that has suggested any sort of treatment plan besides “wait and see”. Plus, I feel confident in the treatment plan because of your excellent explanations. Long story short, I’m immensely grateful for your help!”
– Jeremy Stevens
“My health journey really transformed once working with Lisa Vasile, NP at 4Better Health and really brought clarity and direction to my recovery. After suffering for a year without answers from traditional medicine, I was able to get testing, treatment and support at 4 Better Health after just one visit. Most importantly, the process was collaborative and customized to meet my individual needs. I never felt rushed or pushed to do anything I was not comfortable doing and the practitioners were extremely open to my ideas as well. I really value how they use a well-rounded view to look at all areas of wellness, to emphasize healing on all realms. I’m relieved to say how much better I’m doing and how supported I feel after working with 4BH for the past year and couldn’t be happier with my experience.”
– Emily Stomski
“The entire staff was friendly, well organized and so very thorough. An overall wonderful experience.”
– K. Towers
“Sophia is wonderful. A great experience from start to finish. So many people would benefit from comprehensive health review that 4 Better Health provides. You’re not just another medical chart. Keep it up!”
– P. L.
“One year ago, I could barely get out of bed because of my anxiety and depression. I felt like a stranger in my own body. Since then, I feel better than I ever have before. 4 Better Health has changed the way I view and care for my body. I feel confident in the individualized treatment I’m receiving, and I look forward to continuing on my health journey. I cannot say enough great things about 4 Better Health.”

IV Infusion Testimonials
“I’ve been frustrated with conventional medicine for many years. In conjunction with seeing the compassionate and amazing Dr Zub, I have discovered the IV infusion suite and have been giving it a try for the past 3months. I always thought that IV therapy was for the elite and rich and was something not for the rest of us. I could not have been more wrong. I have been enjoying the extra hydration, vitamin C and please don’t take away the magnesium for my migraines! The staff is so caring and gentle and very accommodating when life gets in the way and appointments need to be juggled. Thank you everyone at 4BetterHealth for all you do! It’s comforting to have health providers who actually care and just don’t want to move us along with a prescription.”
– Sue B.
“I will absolutely recommend the IV suite and treatments. For me, nothing else had provided any sort of relief from the brain fog I was experiencing. After the very first IV, I felt less foggy, my brain seemed to be working better. I’ve continued the IV’s since. They are the only relief I get each week right now while I wait for specialists who are booking 6months out. Both IV nurses are incredible. They are caring and compassionate and really want people to feel better after an IV treatment.”
– Jeremy Stevens
“I was diagnosed with IgA Nephropathy (a rate autoimmune kidney disease) in 2023. Because I am more susceptible to illness and I’m in college, I’m exposed often. When I have symptoms they linger much longer than others. I was cleared for my first infusion and was surprised the first few times how quickly the IV infusions helped me to feel better. I also noticed that my chronic/persistent microscopic hematuria (blood in my urine – which is part of the disease) is negative after IV therapies. My plan is to make IV Infusion part of my routing health plan with my RKD/Wellness journey. “
– Sean Converse
“I truly enjoyed my experience and the caring service for my 1st IV infusion! The staff walked me through all my options and answered my questions with great care. I was feeling under the weather and received the Immunity Boost IV with Glutathione booster. I had an immediate feeling of increased energy but really felt the benefits the next day! I am looking forward to making this regular part of my healthcare.”
