Information for Patients

From the practitioner: About My Practice

I am currently full time with the Federal government in the Traumatic Brain Injury clinic at A T Augusta Military Medical Center, formally Ft Belvoir Hospital. I bring Functional Medicine to my patients as well as an integrative approach with Family and Ayurvedic medicine. We have an extensive integrative team treating those service members who have experienced brain injuries. It is my goal to expand the traditional medical modalities to include a holistic approach, one based on prevention, systems biology, and lifestyle changes that reduce and reverse disease burden.

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

At Ft. Belvoir it is a Tricare Prime, militarily treatment facility caring for active duty, their families, and retirees.
