Holistic Lifestyle Evaluation
Maintaining holistic health and restoring health correlates with choices that we make and the unique effects of those choices on us. Sometimes we live in a way that undermines health. Your biology is functioning perfectly, under the conditions to which it has been subjected. While I will not tell you what you have to do, I will call your attention to what you have told me. You will identify what is contributing to illness and will be faced with a choice. This is where your courage to change and your courage to live true to what you want leads to action.
Health and Wellness
Multidimensional Health Planning
Sometimes someone is healthy and wants to maintain wellness. Wellness is the best prevention against disease. One way to invest in health is to undergo assessments of any risk factors with specialized laboratory testing. It can be encouraging to have affirmed all the things that are being done right and encouraging to have a plan that addresses any early imbalances or risk factors for disease
Functional - Restorative Medicine
Your body communicates. What are the unwanted and atypical limiting symptoms that you are experiencing? Could your body be inviting you on a journey of reversing an imbalance somewhere? You may discover thyroid, hormones, blood sugar, GI or immune dysregulation issues. It may be missing nutrients. It may be actions, jobs, relationships, belief systems, or even something in your environment that needs changed. Bringing balance and experiencing increased function is empowering.
Functional Nutrition
Food as Medicine is the practice of using nutrients in food and the latest evidence from nutritional science. We know that fueling the body appropriately allows healing from the inside out at the cellular level. It is critical to reflect on the reality that what you eat matters and that how you feel is related to what you eat. Learning what foods you do best with and paying attention to how your body responds will be part of reversing disease and preventing illness.
Thyroid Optimization
Many patients diagnosed with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s thyroiditis have been evaluated based on TSH and T4 and given Synthroid or levothyroxine. Though their TSH is brought into range they do not feel better. There is no discussion of thyroid antibodies and why they may be present. The thyroid plays such a major role influencing each cell and affecting metabolism. I typically will screen each initial patient with TSH, free T3, free T4, reverse T3 and thyroid antibodies. I observe that many patients respond well to T3 medication, in addition to Synthroid (levothyroxine).
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
Preventative/Restorative medicine and Anti-Aging medicine recognize that hormones play an important role in maintaining health and reversing unwanted symptoms. While there are actions that can be taken to improve levels without hormone replacement, replacement that brings hormones into normal levels may also have value in increasing well-being in both men and women.
Gastrointestinal Restoration
The GI tract plans such a central role in overall health. When it acts up, no one can eat, rest, or be happy. Whether SIBO, GERD, bloating, constipation, or diarrhea, restoring GI function is an essential building block to overall health.

Functional Nutrition
Food as Medicine is the practice of using nutrients in food and supplements and the latest evidence from nutritional science. We know that fueling the body appropriately allows healing from the inside out, at the cellular level.

Functional Medicine Lab Testing
You may have heard of or are seeking alternative functional medicine testing. Conventional medical practices have informed you that labs and tests are normal and everything is fine; however, if you are still having symptoms, you know that all is not fine. I believe that I test less than other alternative providers. I start with what is most foundational, since one cannot change everything at once. Changing one thing changes other things, and often other testing is not needed. The following tests are all part of the repertoire: Adrenal Testing (HPA Stress Profile), Advanced Celiac and Gluten Sensitivity Testing, Advanced Cholesterol or CardioMetabolic Testing, Comprehensive Stool Analysis, Environmental Pollutant Testing, Food Sensitivity Testing – IgA, IgG, secretory IgA, Genetic Testing or Specialized Genomics Testing, Lyme and Coinfection Testing, MicroNutrient Testing, Mycotoxin Testing, Organic Acid Testing and Toxic Metal Testing.
