Preventive and Wellness Medicine

The human body can do INCREDIBLE things; however, it needs proper care to perform at its peak.  ​This healthcare practice is focused on helping your body do what it was designed to do - prevent, heal, and t​hrive - using the critical tools of nutrition and lifestyle.​  It is evidenced-based, effective, and best of all, natural.

Goals of Preventive and Wellness Medicine:
​
  • Prevent disease (of course!) 
  • Target the root cause of problems
  • Understand the big picture of one's health
  • Manage existing ailments in a way that nurtures the body's own healing mechanisms​
  • Minimize the need for medications, procedures, or doctor visits due to illness
  • Develop healthy habits that will last a lifetime
  • Feel positive, energetic, and vibrant​

 A Focus on Nutrition and Lifestyle

I've chosen to dedicate an entire practice to nutrition and lifestyle because, well, it is just that important.  ​Issues with nutrition and lifestyle are most often at the root of what ails us.  Therefore, addressing what we eat and how we live our lives is a very logical approach to achieving health, healing, and disease prevention.  

I could go on and on about all of the benefits of eating healthy foods, engaging in physical activity, managing stress, getting a good night's sleep, avoiding toxins, thinking positively, and spending quality time with friends and family.  However, I will give you just an idea of some of the many areas of the body that can benefit from optimizing nutrition and lifestyle:
  • Body weight
  • Immunity
  • Gut health
  • Skin condition
  • Longevity and healthy aging
  • Mood
  • Energy
  • Healing
  • Hormone balance
  • Fertility
  • Cardiovascular health
  • Cancer prevention
  • Detoxification
  • Sports performance
  • Mental performance​

Health Coaching

Although optimizing nutrition and lifestyle is a seemingly simple approach, in reality, it can often be very challenging to implement, especially in the modern world we live in today.  This is where having a partner who works with you step by step is key.  In this practice, I am not only a physician but I am also a health coach.  I work closely with my clients on a long-term basis to ensure they get the care and guidance they need to succeed.
