“My approach to physical and mental health and wellness is to identify the root cause, explore the origins, and work together to find lasting solutions.

Sometimes the source of health problems presents very obviously, but my experience is that oftentimes, identifying what is truly the root cause of a patient’s symptoms/ health conditions means digging below the surface and finding what’s been missed. Identifying and addressing that imbalance is what brings about true healing and health.  My philosophy is that everyone benefits from having as fully rounded a health care team as possible, and everyone usually does best with a multi-disciplined approach to their healthcare.”
