We truly feel that God brought us to Dr. Pederson and Vera Health. We had been meeting with multiple specialists throughout our fertility journey without finding success or the approach we were looking for. But from the very first appointment with Dr. Pederson, I was in awe of her evidence-based yet personalized and customized approach — one that considered both my health and my husband’s, as well as our goals for this journey.

I had been dealing with really painful cycles for quite some time, and every doctor I saw wanted to put me on some form of birth control — which wasn’t something I wanted to do. I was so lucky to find Vera Health. From the moment I met Dr. Pederson, her energy was infectious. She was full of joy, excited to dig in, and genuinely ready to figure out what was going on and fix the problem.

I heard about Vera Fertility through the Woman Well podcast with Caitlyn Estess. Caitlyn referred me to Dr. Pederson, and since I live in Minnesota, I was able to connect with her virtually.

I came to Vera because I knew something deeper was going on with my health and wasn’t getting real answers elsewhere. I was being spot-treated here and there, but I wanted a practice that would take a holistic approach and get to the root cause of what I was experiencing.

I first came to Dr. Pederson for some unexplained hormone issues, and she genuinely listened to me from the very start. She made the whole appointment feel so much less scary and all of the issues I was facing seem so much less daunting. She was really willing to find the root of a problem that was affecting every aspect of my life — she didn’t want me to give up on myself, and she didn’t want to give up on me. That meant everything.
