“With 30 years of experience as a doctor I love helping clients manage their health concerns and reduce or eliminated their use of medication”
Conventional Medicine is more about managing symptoms. Functional Medicine which is what I practice is interested in finding the underlying cause to reduce or eliminate the use of prescription drugs if at all possible. Most people who are diagnosed with a particular disease like high blood pressure for example are never told why they have high blood pressure or how to reverse it.
Instead they are handed a prescription drug for life which then can create further side effects and since the underlying cause is not addressed the prescription is only masking the symptoms and the disease continues to progress.
Most people take more medication over time not less which shows that the underlying cause is not being addressed. Using more targeted history taking and simple lab tests that most doctors don't utilize for a number of reasons and extracting more detailed information from those tests, an underlying cause can be made leading to a better outcome of reversing the disease process. in many cases.
I am excited to help uncover and help reverse or reduce health concerns and the medication they are most likely taking. Much of what I do is education and bringing people to a better understanding through knowledge and empowering them to take control of their health. Health is our greatest asset and once you lose it our greatest concern which is when we are most open to change.
Whether its high blood pressure, difficulty sleeping, can't lose weight, brain fog, digestive issues, high cholesterol or other health concerns most people are concerned about some health issue. Let's do our part to help them.
