Environmental Medicine

We are committed to protecting our patients, our community, and the planet. The world has changed dramatically over the last few decades. Whether it’s car exhaust in in the air we breathe, the pesticides in our drinking water, the genetically modified foods (GMOs) in our foods/drinks, or the mercury in our vaccines, we are surrounded by toxicants on a daily basis. The evidence of the harmful effects of these toxicants is quickly growing. Learn more.

Digestive Health

We understand the important connection between diet and health. Like Hippocrates, we believe that proper nutrition can not only prevent disease but also treat it. For this reason, most of our patients receive at least some nutritional counseling. But we don’t stop there. Learn more.

“Leave your drugs in the chemist’s pot if you can heal the patient with food.”
– Hippocrates

Hormone Balance

We understand the importance of regulating our hormones to support the mind and body. Maintaining a healthy weight and muscle mass is critical for aging. Supporting hormones to allow for optimal energy throughout the day is vital.
