Information for Patients

From the practitioner: About My Practice

Visit our website to learn more about me and services available at my clinic. I am passionate about the power of Functional Medicine. I find it deeply satisfying to work together with people the majority of whom find great liberation from their health troubles and develop vitality beyond what they had thought was possible. Functional Medicine often opens up avenues to decrease or eliminate medication or make headway right at the beginning without medication.

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

Expect a 60-75 minute get-established visit, availability is usually one to two weeks from completing a questionnaire on our AthenaNet electronic health record portal. Follow-up are usually 45 minutes.
We are not a primary care clinic.
We offer Functional Medicine approaches for almost all medical conditions. We are recently seeing and treating more mold toxin related symptoms. We are also seeing a growing number of individuals that want to prevent dementia or have early cognitive decline and want to reverse it.
I have many years of experience successfully treating fatigue and related issues. I also work up many gut-related problems like non-ulcer dyspepsia or irritable bowel syndrome with many satisfied patients.
