Here I am answering the most asked questions about Reuben Schwartz. This is, hands down, the most viewed series that I have published. Every year, I do an update on Jake Shirk (formerly Reuben Schwartz). There will not be another update, from Mountain Air Herbs, until later this year. I have collected the most asked questions and will answer them here.

Reuben Schwartz and Jake Shirk

1. Do you work for Reuben Schwartz?

No. I do not work for Jake Shirk (formerly Reuben Schwartz). I live several hours away and am simply a client.

2. Is Reuben Schwartz still working?

No. He has retired as of a couple of years ago.

3. Is Reuben Schwartz still alive?

As of the last update, he is still alive and well. Just retired.

4. Who took over Reuben Schwartz’s office?

Jake Shirk. He started working for Reuben a little over ten years ago and has taken over the business.

5. Did you meet Jake Shirk?

Yes. We met him on our second trip. He looked at some of my kids while Reuben looked at the rest of us.

Address/Days/Hours of Operation

6. What is the address of Jake Shirk?

1205 Radure Rd.
Hestand, KY 42151

7. What are the hours of operation?

*As for the 2022 update*

Office Hours: Monday and Friday 7:30-3, CST and Saturday 7:30-11 CST

8. What are the days that they are in the office?

Monday, Friday, Saturday

Scheduling

9. Can you schedule an appointment for me?

No. I cannot.

10. Can I share with them my medical history?

You can share whatever you feel you need to. I can tell you that they are not familiar with complex conditions. There is no access to phones or computers therefore there is no ability to look things up. He listens with a kind type of patience and understanding but then it comes down to what they see in your eye.

11. Can I just show up?

You can show up during business days/hours. However, they will give preference to those with appointments. If they can fit you in, they will. On the other hand, if they are busy that day, you may have to come back or schedule an appointment. If you desire to come back, you can schedule another appointment while you are there to get on the books.

12. How do I make an appointment?

There are a couple of ways to schedule an appointment. A) Write a letter to the address above and request an appointment. The days/hours are listed above and you can specify a timeframe. You will receive a letter, in return, within 7-10 business days with your scheduled appointment. B) You can roll the dice and show up.

Mountain Air Herbs

13. Can Mountain Air Herbs make my appointment?

No. They cannot schedule appointments for you.

14. If I called Mountain Air Herbs can they pass along messages to Jake Shirk?

No. They cannot pass along messages to Jake.

15. How come I can’t call the office to schedule the appointment?

Jake is Amish. They have no electricity, phones, computers, etc. Mountain Air Herbs, however is English, therefore if you bought herbs/supplements from them, you can call or go to their website. Again, they cannot answer questions, schedule, or get messages to Jake.

Communication and Cost

16. Does Jake Shirk have an email address or website?

Jake is Amish, therefore there is no website or email address.

17. How much does it cost?

Jake, himself, is free but he does have a donation box on his desk. We did give him a donation both times we were there. The herbs/supplements do cost money. I would suggest taking about $300 just to be on the safe side. That is on the higher end of what you might need depending on the amount of people that you take (we had a total of nine people). They do use glass (amber) bottles so when you go back, you can take your bottle and it refilled to save on cost. Mountain Air Herbs does not refill bottles.

18. Do they take credit cards?

Jake only takes cash. Mountain Air Herbs takes cash and credit cards.

19. Where is Mountain Air Herbs?

Mountain Air Herbs
1945 Radure Rd.
Hestand, KY 42151
270.487.1334

Office Hours: Monday and Friday 8-4, CST and Saturday 8-12, CST

What Do They Do?

20. What exactly do they do?

My personal experience is we went into his office. I told him all the things about my son (nothing about me) and he smiled. Then, I told him that he could research it on my YouTube channel and he asked “What is this YouTube you are referring to.” LOL. I forgot he was Amish for a minute. He used a little glass crucible and a penlight. From there, he got up in my personal space and looked in my son’s eye (and then mine).

He told me all the things, marked a bunch of things down on a piece of paper and I moved onto the front desk where they filled my order based on the order of importance. They did this in order to save me money. There were several things I had to go to Mountain Air Herbs to obtain. I did order a three month supply (to get me through until my next visit), so my cost was more than the average person.

Clearing Things Up - Amish Iridology

Clearing Things Up Amish Iridologist Reuben Schwartz

Clearing Things Up Amish Iridologist Reuben Schwartz.  I DO NOT WORK FOR REUBEN.  I (and my family) are clients of his. We live almost 5 hours from him.

I wish I could make appointments and intercede for those who reach out to me, but I simply can’t. My goal is to share our experience to help others possibly. Reuben may not work for you, but he did for us. Everyone is different. He should NEVER replace your regular doctor!

Reuben is retired. Ironically, he had an eye injury that he took time off to allow for healing. While Reuben was healing, sadly, his wife passed away. That is when he decided to retire.

He has trained Jake Shirk for many years. We met him the last time we were there. He is young (young to me) and very kind. He has a passion for what he does. Realize they (Reuben and now Jake) are NOT medical doctors. This practice was passed down through the family.

The visit is free unless you want to donate to Jake.

The herbs/supplements are NOT FREE. I would bring anywhere from $100-$200, depending on what you want to buy. Bring cash only! Credit cards (no electronics) and checks (they do not use banks) are not accepted.

Keep your bottles because they will refill those for you if you choose to go back. Some people do, and some people do not. It is up to you.

Address and Information

1205 Radure Rd

Hestand, KY 42151

Remember, they ARE AMISH.

They have no access to computers, emails, phones, or electricity, for that matter.

You will need to WRITE A LETTER to get an appointment.

A reply letter can take anywhere from 7-10 days. You can request a better day/time for you. Otherwise, they give you the first available.

You can walk in. The office will always give preference to those with appointments over walk-ins. They do stay busy, so keep that in mind.

Hours and Days of Operation Have Changed

NEW HOURS

Monday and Friday 7:30-3:00

Saturday 7:30-11:00

I will be calling Mountain Air Herbs at least once a year to update the days/times of Jake Shirk, Amish Iridologist. They are subject to change at any given time.

Mountain Air Herb

Reuben’s (now Jake’s) office does NOT have all that may be recommended for you. That is where Mountain Air Herbs comes into play. They are phenomenal humans from Reuben (now Jake) down the hill.

Mountain Air Herbs DOES take cash, credit cards, and possibly checks. That may have changed over the years. They will have the remainder of what you need. They will also tell you what might do the same thing and what is completely necessary and what isn’t. The people here are NOT medical doctors.

This time, I spoke to the long-time manager Carrie Beason. She, and the owners, are a wealth of information. They have the supplements/oils that Reuben (now Jake Shirk) does not carry. If you would like to contact them, you can click here, which will lead you to their website.

They are ENGLISH and not AMISH. Mountain Air Herbs has a phone number and a website you can see through the link I posted above.

They work closely with the Amish because of their deep love for their Vernon community. They CAN NOT make appointments for Jake (formerly Reuben).

Hours of Operation for Mountain Air Herbs

Monday and Friday from 8-4 pm

Saturday from 8-12

I will be calling Mountain Air Herbs at least once a year to update the days/times of Jake Shirk, Amish Iridologist. They are subject to change at any given time.

For Me

I welcome any questions, but I do not make appointments for the Amish Iridologist in Kentucky. If you have any stories to share, positive or negative, you can leave them on any post. It is good to have a well-rounded view of holistic care, which this is.

Amish Iridologist Reuben Schwartz is a good man, as is Jake. I got the pleasure of meeting him the last time I brought my children. Reuben looked at half of us, and Jake looked at the other half. Both men are very kind. Also, remember that they sell fantastic bread, fruits, produce, popcorn, quilts, and other things. You can get some stuff at the store. Otherwise, you will see them outside, ready and willing to sell you their beautiful bounty of goodies.
