Walk The Natural Path Hormone Health and Fertility Care

Working with Dr.Samantha has quite literally changed our lives in the best way! We went to her to get help with our health and ultimately, our fertility. She was the first and only doctor to listen to our concerns and looked at us as a whole person and addressed every part of us that could affect our overall health. She helped us with our lifestyle and make adjustments that allowed us to get pregnant naturally after years of infertility. If you're ever questioning if working with her is worth the investment, it will be!!! Working on our health is always worth the investment. And it is also nice to have someone listen to you and what your body needs! It is refreshing and I think everyone deserves a doctor like Dr. Samantha!

After experiencing an ectopic pregnancy, surgery to remove my right tube in 2021, and three failed IUl attempts, I truly began to lose faith in what our family would look like. Dr.Sam was so very encouraging and within 3 months we were pregnant! We have a 4 month baby girl and I can’t thank Dr. Sam enough! Already working with her to prep my body to be in the best shape for the next!

Dr. Samantha has been an absolute light in my life, and I truly don’t know where I’d be without her. Infertility can be such an isolating, emotionally exhausting experience — but from the moment I started working with her, I no longer felt alone. Just knowing she was on my team, that she genuinely cared, and that she had my back made all the difference — not just in my physical health, but in my mental and emotional well-being too. She was there every step of the way — compassionate, responsive, knowledgeable, and professional, always answering my questions with care and love. I had spent over a year researching my condition, reading every book, listening to every podcast — so I came in with high expectations and a very specific understanding of my body. Dr. Samantha didn’t just meet those expectations — she surpassed them in every possible way. She’s incredibly competent, deeply intuitive, and truly devoted to her patients. I always felt seen, supported, and guided by someone who genuinely wanted the best for me. I had two chemical pregnancies before this, and now — I’m currently pregnant, with great stats so far, and feeling amazing. And I owe so much of that to her guidance, care, and unwavering support. Anyone who gets to work with Dr. Samantha is incredibly lucky. She’s not just a doctor — she’s a true healer, a compassionate advocate, and for me, a guiding light. Thank you, Dr. Samantha, from the bottom of my heart.

My husband and I went through 2 years of infertility before ultimately deciding to go through IVF. I was diagnosed with PCOS and he was dealing with low sperm morphology and we were essentially told it was our only option. We were blessed with our first son and are grateful it brought us him, but after navigating the physical and emotional difficulties that come with IVF, we hoped we would never have to go through that again. We thought maybe when it came time to grow our family our bodies will have figured it out. But that wasn’t the case, and a year after our son was born all of our health issues were still there - some of them even worse than before. After praying through our options, going through IVF again felt so anxiety inducing and we knew we wanted long term healing so we could actually get our bodies back on track for our future health and the health of our babies. Dr. Ess was an absolute answer to prayer. She gave us HOPE that we had other options besides IVF. She listened to what we had gone through, had so much empathy, and made us feel confident in a plan moving forward. She responded to any question we had, even if it seemed like a weird question, but she always encouraged us that we were on the right path. After 10 months of working with her on balancing hormones, working on thyroid health, sperm quality, and my gut health we finally saw a positive pregnancy test. We are now 17 weeks pregnant with a baby boy, and our oldest son will get to have a BROTHER. we still can’t believe it and honestly we are just forever grateful we found Dr. Ess. She was the first doctor to actually partner with us in our care and has given us the gift of healing that will last us beyond this pregnancy. If you are thinking about working with her, I can’t recommend her enough. You will be in the best hands. ♥️

I cannot recommend Dr. Samantha Ess enough! She is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly dedicated to helping her patients thrive. I came to her seeking support for fertility, and was amazed at how thoroughly she assessed not only my reproductive health, but also my hormones and gut health—which she explained are all interconnected. She takes the time to really listen, asks thoughtful questions, and creates personalized treatment plans that are rooted in both science and natural healing. I always feel seen and supported in her care. If you're struggling with fertility, hormonal imbalances, or digestive issues, she is absolutely the person you want on your team. She genuinely cares, and it shows in everything she does.

Dr. Samantha Ess is truly the best! I was diagnosed with unexplained infertility and was recommended IUI/IVF even though every test performed was completely normal. I wasn’t willing to take that as an answer and decided to work with Dr. Ess with Walk The Natural Path and it’s the best thing I could have done. Through a multitude of lab work, gut health, personalized care plans and digging through health history that has been looked over, she uncovered every leaf. After about a year and a half of no luck, I got pregnant with a healthy baby boy after working with Dr. Ess for 3 months. I wish everyone who has been over looked by traditional doctors or is struggling with fertility knew the possibilities that come with Dr. Ess and naturopathic medicine. Highly recommend!

Dr. Ess has been amazing to work with. We started working with her after trying for about 8 months with no success. She was thorough with our labs and was able to find ways we could improve our fertility. We’re expecting our rainbow baby this fall and couldn’t have done it without her help. Cannot say enough good things about her!

Dr. Samantha has been absolutely amazing to work with on our fertility journey. I came to her a total bundle of nerves & having had terrible experiences with MDs thus far and having been totally ignored when I brought up concerns and tried to advocate for myself. Dr. Samantha actually listened to me, validated me and gave me tangible action steps that helped me feel in control of my journey and I truly believe helped to get my hormones healthy so that I could get pregnant. I am now sitting beside my healthy and happy 3 month old and still can't believe it. I am so excited to continue working with her postpartum & as we look to continue growing our family! I really wish her standard of care was the norm. Thank you so much Dr. Samantha!!
