Patient Testimonials
I am a 32-year-old male and my life is divided into the time before and after my ozone prostate injections. I had three ozone prostate injections in August 2025 and now in late November 2025 as I look back my pain instead of being 7/10 all the time day and night is just an occasional tickle which doesn’t get any worse usually.
My knee was so swollen that i couldn’t straighten or bend it, the shortest of walks made it start swelling. I wasn’t aware of having injured it. It wasn’t particularly painful, so I knew there wasn’t something badly wrong with it.
Immediately After the first prolozone injection I felt like my knee had been oiled, 2 days later all the swelling had gone, a week later I did a 2 hour hike and my knee didn’t swell at all. It was a bit hot so I went for the second injection.
If you have a complex medical condition that’s showing no benefit from the standard medical interventions, visit Dr. McGovern and his team at Drummartin Clinic. The care in your treatment that you’ll receive from every team member is something you won’t find elsewhere. Most importantly, this science based, functional medicine approach, IT WORKS.
Having broken my left clavicle back in early October six months later, just as I was at the point of giving up hope of real recovery, I was truly blessed to find myself with Dr Magovern. As a professional classical pianist, performer, and teacher, I was concerned I couldn’t continue.
Demonstrating for students had become a problem as the pain and discomfort prevented any smooth action of my left hand. I had broken the same collarbone 15 years before, and it had never fully healed. The suggestion from the hospital that the bone be re-broken and reset prompted my turning on my heels

What this often includes
- Review of symptoms, triggers, pacing and flare patterns
- Assessment of sleep, autonomic function, immune health and inflammation
- Consideration of environmental exposures, infections and toxic load
- Practical plans that respect energy limits and day-to-day life
What patients often say:
“I finally feel someone believes how unwell I am.”
“This is the first time the whole story has been put together.”
“I understand my condition — and my options — more clearly now.”

What to do next
A short call with the clinic team can help you decide the next step.
Before consulting us, please make sure you have been checked out by your GP:
If you experience any new red-flag symptoms like a suspicious morning headache with nausea, significant new-onset fatigue, or change in bowel habit, and you’re over 40 years old, it is important to see your GP for proper evaluation and treatment, before embarking on any non-standard medical treatment.
Standard, conventional medicine ought to be the first port of call for you – which means you ought to see your GP with any worrisome complaints. No one system of medicine is perfect, however standard medicine is excellent at diagnosing significant or life-threatening disease, and must not be by-passed.
