Integrative medicine is an approach to care that puts the patient at the center and addresses the full range of physical, emotional, mental, social, spiritual and environmental influences that affect a person’s health. Employing a personalized strategy that considers the patient’s unique conditions, needs and circumstances, integrative medicine uses the most appropriate interventions from an array of scientific disciplines to heal illness and disease and help people regain and maintain optimal health. We believe that healthcare can and should be done differently. As a Medical Doctor practicing in a traditional setting, I can see that the majority of illness in the United States are either preventable or treatable through more natural means. Knowing that such an approach would be both empowering and affordable for patients, while also being more sustainable for our economy and natural health. Treating the source not just the symptom is our solution. By applying the principles of simplicity, sustainability, quality, and collaboration, we are able to provide comprehensive services with an integrative approach for less than what most people are paying for traditional health care with better overall results.
