True Harmony Staff

"My husband feels comfortable coming with me and that is fantastic. He is always included in our appointment discussions. I absolutely LOVE Mary Ann, she is the most genuine person I have ever met in the medical field and I feel that she truly cares about me as a person as well as me as a patient. She takes the time to really know you and ask questions about who you are as a person, interests, job, family...It's never just in and out with her and that is what makes the difference. I wish I could recall the nurses name but she was so upbeat and friendly before and after our appointment. She was just as excited about our pregnancy as we are and that makes Dr. visits much more enjoyable."

AO (Phoenix, AZ) May 2011

"Dr. Brass and Staff-I hope that all is well with all of you. I wanted to let you know my status. Thank you for arranging for me to have Dr. (anonymous) as my doctor. He is the best! Meeting him and his staff (they are great too!) has changed my views on both doctors and hospitals. The service I've recieved has been outstanding. All I've had to do is show up and everything is all ready for me. I appreciate that so much. Your staff is pretty good too. Tell them I said so. Keep me in your thoughts. I'll keep you informed with what's going on with me from time to time. Thank you."

PC (Tempe, AZ) February 2011

"I am always helped right away. Always feel comfortable, relaxed and welcome in your office. LOVE the kids room! It has been great over the years for knowing my now 5 year old daughter can be in there while I get checked. I appreciate the hot tea available and lots of magazines, especially Magazines in each check up room! (It can get really boring in there. Hehe) I always respect how Dr. Brass is so at ease with anything that comes up and truly trusts in the human body."

EB (Chandler, AZ) February 2011

"I have never been treated so wonderfully. Your staff is courteous and all of the doctors I have encountered were very thorough and happy to answer any questions or concerns I might have had. I had a great experience and I will recommend your office to all of my friends."

TM (Mesa, AZ) January 2011

"I felt at ease the first time I came into True Harmony's office. It was decorated and set-up with woman in mind; comfortable, warm lighting, and pretty pictures/decorations. The experience wasn't intimidating at all. I didn't have to wait very long for the doctor to see me. The doctor and assistant were very friendly and informative and willing to address my concerns or questions I had. It was a very relaxed and quick appointment. I appreciated all the community connections that the office offered such as information about local artists, vendors, and classes."

KF (Mesa, AZ) January 2011

"Dear Dr. Brass, Maryann, and True Harmony Staff, Thank you for the excellent care I received during my pregnancy. I appreciate True Harmony's approach to medicine and the willingness of all the staff to listen to your patients. I was impressed the office staff called me to check and see how I was feeling and answered my questions so quickly. Dr. Brass, thank you for delivering our healthy, beautiful boy."

MK (Gilbert, AZ) November 2010

"I am very happy with the care I receive at True Harmony. Dr Brass, her colleagues and her staff have always been comforting and helpful. I originally chose True Harmony because I wanted a natural childbirth within the safety of a hospital setting. I was allowed to have the birth I wanted but was also given great medical care when the birth did not go as planned. The call doctor, Dr. Newman, went to great lengths to make sure my birth was as close to my plan as possible. I recently had the Adiana procedure done at the office and could not be more happy. It was quick and virtually painless. All the staff, including the anesthesiologist, Dr. Rey and his medical assistant, Cisco, were so nice. I have great confidence in Dr. Brass and the people she chooses to surround her. I would recommend her office to any woman looking for OBGYN care."

LP (Gilbert, AZ) November 2010

"I had a great experience, I was impressed with everything the center, staff, programs, and Dr. Brass-Jones. I have recommended True Harmony to all my friends. Dr. Brass-Jones was very patient, down to earth and answered all my questions. I never sensed anyone rushing me out to get to someone else. When I got my pap I was shocked to see Dr. Brass-Jones look at everything. Most doctors are in and out and don't care to take their time and look at surrounding skin (too much detail?)."

JM (Mesa, AZ) September 2010

"True Harmony Staff, Thanks so much for all you do. You make the office warm and things are run smoothly. See you guys again soon :)."

SM-G (Tempe, AZ) July 2010

"Ladies, Thank you for greeting each of my visits with your joyful smiles and laughter. You have made my preparation for #2 so enjoyable, professional, comforting, and positive! You should be very proud of the foundation and family you have built here. I always look forward to my appointments because of each of you!"

AS (Phoenix, AZ) June 2010

"My experience at True Harmony is awesome. Dr. Grobe really listens to my concerns and addresses them in a caring manner. She has also addressed problems that other doctors have blown off for years. My health has improved significantly due to her attention to detail. I trust her judgement and feel that my health care needs are in good hands!"

TD (Phoenix, AZ) November 2009

"Jason and I cannot thank you enough for always being so kind to us at our office visits and when we called to ask our crazy questions! Your kindess and professionalism is deeply appreciated!!"

LP (Mesa, AZ) October 2009

"I just wanted to take a moment and recognize how impressed I am with your front office staff. When reading reviews of various offices before choosing an OB, I came across comments that the office staff wasn't always helpful or organized. However, my experience has not reflected that at all! I have been receiving OB care for the last 5 months and have also been in the office twice for massage services. Everytime I have walked through the door or called, all of my questions have been answered and the check-in/out process was seamless. In my visits, I have especially noticed that Nicole appears very on top of things in the office and has been helpful. I just wanted to acknowledge a job well done by the staff that keep the office running smoothly. Also, as the recepient of a free 60 minute massage through the an office promotion, I wanted to say thank you for thinking out of the box and providing fun and rewarding opportunities such as that to your patients."

KS (Mesa, AZ) October 2009

"Thank you. I think the thing that has been most helpful over the years is having the nursery for my daughter to play in while I see the doctor. She usually doesn't want to leave!"

EB (Chandler, AZ) September 2009

"I like your clinic and I will be back. The staff are friendly and explained what they were doing. I appreciate that. No rush, rush like in a typical western medicine clinic. I felt like the clinicians actually listened to me and what I had to say will have a huge input into my treatment plan-as should be. I thought the Dr. was very respectful to me especially when I was getting my exam-it was quick and minimal discomfort involved. I understand the followup plan and the staff directed me to the closest lab in the area-it was easy to find-my blood has been drawn. Thanks for all your help."

RK (San Tan Valley, AZ) September 2009

"I received good care in a timely manner. I appreciated the way I was treated and look forward to working with True Harmony again. Thanks for your time. Have a great day!"

HK (Mesa, AZ) June 2009

"My experience at True Harmony was Great! The team took the time to make sure I felt welcomed, informed, and comfortable. My questions and concerns were addressed promptly. Thanks True Harmony for providing excellent customer care!"

TD (Phoenix, AZ) June 2009

"Dear Dr. Brass & Dr. Grobe- He's here! Wyatt James was born on March 17th after a smooth pregnancy and a beautiful, magical natural labor and birth. I was fortunate to find a great midwifery practice when I arrived in California and these two women helped see me through the last half of my pregnancy and birth. I want to thank you both for offering such a great integrated health option for women. I gained a tremendous amount of physical and emotional well-being from being your patient. I am loving being a mom and want to thank you for helping me get there."

AM (California) May 2009

"I had my first visit with you guys just five hours ago. I thank you so much for your kindness and patience with me and my phobia of needles. Your caring staff took great care of me through my panic and I actually had an amazing 'needle' experience! I have heard so many great stories about the results from IV therapy and wanted to try it, but I have been so frightened. I am so thankful to have such a good experience to combat my fears and I plan to come back for another treatment in two weeks. Again, thank you for your support as I continue my journey to wellness!"

DW (Queen Creek, AZ) February 2009

Dr. Christine Brass-Jones D.O.

" I just went for an annual exam which I was not looking forward to. I left True Harmony so encouraged and uplifted. The staff was very helpful and on time. Dr. Brass-Jones took the time to listen to my concerns and gave me honest and practical answers. It just felt good to hear a Dr. who is not afraid of telling you what THEY think it is best. I will always be coming back to True Harmony. Thank you Dr. Brass-Jones!"

TH (Mesa, AZ) Sept 2011

 

"I had a great visit last week! I have been studying Hypnobirthing and look forward to using it during my labor and delivery but I had been a bit nervous and confused about all the techniques. I let Dr. Brass-Jones know about my feelings and she sat down and talked me through all of my mixed emotions. I really appreciate her taking the time to reassure me. I also began getting a hot flash during my visit and she was so sweet, she started fanning me. I was a big mess that day!"

 

JM (Mesa, AZ) June 2011

 

"Dr. Brass, I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the wonderful OB care I received by you and your staff. After the birth of my first son wasn't pleasant experience, I was left with a lot of hard feelings towards those in charge of my OB care. When I became pregnant this time I wanted a much different experience and did my research. I'm so glad I found you and the center. Having an OB that I could trust and who truly cared about my needs and desires meant more to me than I could ever express. You are an amazing woman and I'm so glad you were a part of one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I'm only sorry that my son came so fast that you missed the birth. But I'm glad you showed up when you did to celebrate with me, my husband, and son. I'm so thankful for Dr. Bullaro being your back up. She was great! I still can't believe I was able to deliver my 10lb 4oz baby boy naturally! It was amazing. I'm so happy that my delivery went even better than I had hoped and I have you to thank for that!"

EH (Mesa, AZ) August 2010

"Dr. Brass, What can we say? You are an amazing OB/GYN! I don't know what we would do without you. You made a difficult labor a positive experience and we have beautiful (baby's name) as the proof. Thank you for always listening to our wishes. Thanks so much."

SM-G (Tempe, AZ) July 2010

"Dear Dr. Brass and Mary Ann, I want to thank you both so much for providing me with help for my morning sickness throughout this past pregnancy. Your care, advice, prescriptions, and helpfulness were invaluable in helping me to stay functional and healthy during this time. I also very much appreciate your willingness to work with a midwife's client-that was such a blessing in my life, and I appreciate it beyond measure. Should we ever have another child (not planned, but surprises happen!), I will look forward to having the same excellent care with your practice."

DJ (Chandler, AZ) April 2010

"I am happy to say I chose Essure as my permanent birth control method. Dr. Brass offered me this option when I inquired about a tubal ligation. I am so pleased with the results of this procedure. It was quick, non-invasive, painless procedure. I was in and out of the office within an hour and have experienced no side effects. I would highly recommend this option to anyone looking for permanent birth control. Thank you Dr.Brass for offering such a great alternative to the traditional higher risk methods!"-GS. (Gilbert, AZ) February 2010.

"I finally got to talk to (patient) about her birth. Wow, What a story! It is always wonderful to hear how you support the natural process. Meg and Sean were so impressed when you sent away the extra care team once Mathea came out with no issues from meconium in the bag of waters. Thanks for all you do."

WD, AAHCC (Mesa, AZ) March 2010

"I wanted to drop you a quite note of thanx in regards to the birth of (Baby). (Parents) were so happy that you were able to let the cord pulse until it was done even though it was extremely short. Thank you."

WD, AAHCC (Mesa, AZ) March 2010

"Quite simple you are an amazing individual and doctor. From the depths of my heart, I thank you for being so caring and compassionate while I was in labor. You have my profound gratitude for bringing our baby boy safely into this world. Your calm energy and vast confidence kept me truly at peace during this experience. You are a special person to us and we cherish the thought of you delivering our next baby. With Love and Respect. "

LP (Mesa, AZ) October 2009

"I finally got to talk to (patient) about her birth. Wow, what a story! It was always wonderful to hear how you support the natural process. (Patient and husband) were so impressed when you sent away the extra care team once (patients baby) came out with no issues from meconium in the bag of waters. Thanks for all you do."

WD (Mesa, AZ) October 2009

"I wanted to drop a quick note of thanks in regards to the birth of (patients child). (Patient and husband) were so happy that you were able to let the cord pulse until it was done. Even though it was extremely short. Thank you."

WD (Mesa, AZ) October 2009

"Thanks so much for everything you did! Your an awesome doctor. My baby girl is the most beautiful thing to me, thanks a million. It was the best experience of my life and I look forward for the experience again...later on..."

AB (Mesa, AZ) September 2009

"Just want to thank you again for everything you have done for me, and for another wonderful experience in your and at the delivery of our daughter. I am so blessed to have found you! Your kindness, sense of humor and calmness make everything seem easier, and I couldn't imagine having anyone else there to deliver my sweet baby girl. Thank you for being the amazing doctor and person that you are. Grant and I will miss coming to see you and all of the other wonderful people at your office. Like I've told you before, you are the best! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!"

CK (Queen Creek, AZ) August 2009

"Thank you for a wonderful delivery! I was so pleased with everyone and the experience was wonderful! I will definitely have Dr. Brass deliver my next child when the time comes!"

BL (Phoenix, AZ) June 2009

"Thank you so much for a beautiful natural delivery. It was everything we could have hoped for, just a little later than anticipated :). Despite a stubborn baby who was posterior and didn't want to come out, we really appreciate your patience that allowed us to have a natural childbirth. It was all worth it after that last push when you put Logan on my chest. It makes the previous 30 hours seem like nothing. He is such a little miracle and we can't wait to have more children (just not for a while though) :). Thank you again for your support and patience so we could have the childbirth experience we had hoped for."

MP (Gilbert, AZ) May 2009

"I stand amazed again at the dignity and respect you show women. You are one in a million among OB's and I want to thank you for choosing to be different. Thank you for making (Patient) birth so beautiful and redeeming her sense of "failure" at a homebirth. Never once did you belittle her or make her feel like she couldn't do it. Thank you for giving her that respect. You do great work. We are so lucky to have you in the east valley! Thanks also for giving me some pointers on labial tears. It was so helpful. You are simply amazing! Blessings!"

WC (Chandler, AZ) April 2009

"I wanted to thank you for the best day of my life! You made having my son such an amazing experience. I didn't just have a doctor in the room with me...I had a fellow mom, girlfriend, and support person. You do what you do so well, (you almost make me want to do it again...almost). This mommy thing is harder than you mommies make it look, but SO worth it! Thanks again, you are truly amazing!"

SF (Gilbert, AZ) March 2009

"Thank you so much for being my doctor and delivering my precious baby Jack. You are amazing and I could not of asked for a better doctor. Thank you."

NW (Mesa, AZ) December 2008

"I just want to thank you for all you have done for me. It has been a long and rough journey, but well worth it in the end. Im glad I found you. All my moms friends at Banner Gateway said your the best and they were right. I feel like you are not just my doctor, but threw all this you have become my friend. Thank you."

NS (Maricopa, AZ) September 2008

"I just want to let you know how much I appreciate all you do. Thank you for (anonymous patient) especially- she first seems so fragile...but is nursing well and seems good now. Thanks so much!"

SD (Gilbert, AZ) August 2008

"Thank you so much for all your awesome care throughout my pregnancy. You are a great doctor & a super sweet person! It's been really fun getting to know you.. not only at the hospital, but through the "patient experience". A doctor like you, with your cute personality and your open mind and views on childbirth is a rare find, quit a treasure. I am so glad I was able to have you for my doc!"

SA (Mesa, AZ) August 2008

"Thank you so much for everything, you truly have taken a lot of the fear for first time mothers away. These first few weeks of motherhood is undescribable, I would not trade it for anything (not even sleep). Again Thank you."

SH (Mesa, AZ) August 2008

"Just wanted to say thank you for being so great through out this pregnancy. I look forward to having more with you. Thanks!"

DV (Gilbert, AZ) June 2008

JO (Mesa, AZ) 2007

"Thank you so much for all of your support during my pregnancy. None of us knew what journey was a head for this pregnancy. Your care and support was more than I could have ever asked. Dr. Brass, you are the best doctor I have ever had! I couldn't have asked for better care or a sweeter person to bring our precious Emma into this world! Thank you for taking such great care of both of us. I will miss seeing you every two weeks!"

TH (Gilbert, AZ) 2006

Dr. Denise Quance-Grobe, NMD

KF (Mesa, AZ) June 2011

"Everyone there is always courteous and kind. Dr. Grobe is a wealth of information, always listens to questions and concerns with patience and attentiveness, and gives practical and realistic advice that makes sense. I feel that I am always treated with respect and consideration."

CM (Tempe, AZ) March 2011

Mary Ann Shostek, PA-C

"Dear Dr. Brass and Mary Ann, I want to thank you both so much for providing me with help for my morning sickness throughout this past pregnancy.

Hila Ferguson, Reiki Master-Teacher

"I received Reiki healing work from Hila Ferguson. I found her to be an outstanding gifted healer and intuitive worker. As a guy I sometimes shy away from telling friends about my experiences with Reiki, but I have recommended several friends to Hila. Everyone should experience the amazing work she does."

CT (Phoenix, AZ) 2007

 

Tasia Bausinger, Licensed Aesthetician

"I've been getting facials by Tasia for a year now and they are great. I started using the Rhonda Allison regime that Tasia suggested and it's been working great. I have oily and rough skin and am prone to have breakouts, and being in my 30's, that type of skin doesn't cut it anymore! I received a microdermabrasion and then started using the 'Clarifying Beads' by Rhonda Allison and WOW, my skin is sooo smooth! The Clarifying Beads are amazing, my face is smooth and soft, and that's not an easy thing to achieve with my skin! Thanks for the guidance Tasia!"

SV (Gilbert, AZ) June 2008

Anna Filipski, LMT

"Saturday's massage was so wonderful.  It has helped break the steady pain I'd been in for three days. Sunday things started to improve just a bit and since then it has been steadily improving.  I'm still sore... Wow!  But I almost have full range of motion back in my neck and I am not feeling the need to take Aleve or anything.  I would translate how my neck feels now more like it is stiff but not in excruciating pain as it was before.  I can drive safely again and the back spasms are gone.  Yes!"

Anonymous April 2008

 Jessica Wild, CCCE

"I have referred several couples to you for your labor and birth classes. They have returned to my class with glowing remarks at how much better they felt after your class. They commonly state how relieved their partners feel, how informative, helpful, and empowering your private sessions are.

I feel that your classes fully complement the prenatal yoga. Our intentions are in harmony with each other and together they provide the clients with the tools for a conscious birthing experience.

Thank you Jessica for being here for my students and their partners. It makes my work easier."

KG (Prenatal yoga instructor) March 2008

  

"Having Jessica Wild as our doula was one of the best decisions we ever made. As a first time father, I wanted to help my partner through her labor and birth, but honestly, what was I really going to do? How was I supposed to coach and support her when I didn't have a clue about labor and birth? I didn't know what to expect. I didn't know what was normal. And, I didn't know what might be cause for alarm. And I don't care how many birth classes or Lamaz classes you take, believe me, they don't prepare you for the real thing.

Jessica was invaluable to us, especially me. She let me relax and just focus on loving my partner through labor and birth. I didn't have to worry about anything. I knew that Jessica could answer any questions and handle any issues that came up. That gave me a wonderful sense of peace and confidence.

Jessica was with us throughout the entire labor and birth. She made sure the nurses and doctors at the hospital followed our birth plan, which was very detailed. She pushed us when we needed it and she listened to us when we needed it. You only give birth maybe a few times in your life. Make it a beautiful experience. Get a doula. You won't be sorry."

I LOVE The Center For True Harmony! The energy is
amazing - I always feel like I am home when I am there. Dr Quance and Tiffany have changed my life so much for the better through accupuncture and massage. You girls have a great thing going there!
