Our doctors draw on the traditional healing arts and the science of current nutritional and naturopathic medicine. Their goal is to get to the root cause of what has caused your illness and/or lack of wellness.

They draw on a wide array of diagnostic tools from urine and stool analysis to blood tests and hair mineral analysis, even DNA with interpretation.

As primary care providers with prescription authority they can use those test results to create the best, individualized program that fits your lifestyle and health goals and if a pharmaceutical is necessary, they can write prescriptions.

Programs that are effective, sustainable and successful.

    What is Primary Care?

    Primary care is the cornerstone of healthcare, providing patients with comprehensive, accessible, and continuous medical care. It serves as the first point of contact for individuals seeking medical assistance, offering a wide range of services that address various health concerns. Primary care physicians serve as advocates for their patients, emphasizing preventative measures and promoting overall wellbeing. They are equipped with the knowledge and skills to diagnose, treat, and manage common illnesses and chronic conditions. With a focus on building trusted relationships, primary care providers offer personalized care, addressing not only physical health but also mental and emotional wellbeing. By coordinating care and referring to specialists when necessary, primary care plays a vital role in ensuring comprehensive and holistic healthcare for individuals of all ages and backgrounds.
