“When more than five local doctors gave up on me, gaslit me, and offered nothing but more medications for an already injured nervous system, Dr. Josef took the time—an entire hour—to speak with me and my family, listening with compassion and without judgment. From the very first appointment, it was clear that his clinic operates differently. He didn’t just throw out generic advice or push a one-size-fits-all protocol. He gave me options, laid out clear, science-backed recommendations, and most importantly, he let me lead. Every decision about my treatment has been collaborative, and I’ve always felt respected, supported, and heard.
TaperClinic provides a level of care I have never experienced within the traditional medical system. The team is responsive, accessible, and invested in your success—not just in terms of medication tapering, but in your overall quality of life. Weekly check-ins, hour-long appointments, quick communication through a secure online portal, and 24/7 access to a peer-and-professional support community have made me feel like I’m never alone in this process.
I came to Dr. Josef after trying to taper on my own with advice from online communities, and I can say with absolute certainty: I would not be stable or functional today without his guidance. I am continuing my career, my daily life, and my healing because of the support I receive through TaperClinic.
Dr. Josef is not just a doctor—he’s a fierce advocate. He continues to push for change in a broken system that fails so many. He and his team care about their patients as people. They offer family support groups and check in on more than just symptom updates—they care about who we are and what we’re going through.”
