Integrative medicine focuses on understanding the patient’s overall quality of life. We understand that health cannot be measured solely through the absence of disease, but instead, through the evaluation of your health with an eye toward optimal wellness. We can do this by focusing on positive vitality in each patient. This is a holistic perspective towards health – one that acknowledges the orchestrated connection of a body as a singular, complex, interconnected unit.
