Together we can develop a personalized plan for you

Let's develop a personalized plan together

What is an integrative medicine MD consultation?

Integrative medicine focuses on finding the root cause of health concerns and partnering with patients and their primary care providers to determine how best to support the journey to health and wholeness. The first priority during a consultation with an MD is to understand all that is unique about you - from goals and motivation, to current health status and physiology, to the context leading up to and surrounding your life today. Together we will identify not only your challenges, but also your many strengths, so that we can leverage these to help you achieve your goals.

We will then develop a personalized plan that may involve: further diagnostic testing, lifestyle modifications, addition of select targeted supplements and/or the use of adding traditional medicine or complementary modalities. Our recommendations are informed by evidence from medical literature, with close attention to safety and efficacy.

Integrative medicine offers face-to-face and telemedicine MD consultations.
