I always leave room to expand my perspective in all areas of life, but it would be a hard sell to convince me that our approach to healthcare isn't in need of a beautiful revolution.

New biomedical technologies are advancing everyday, we have more access to new research that outline better treatment options than ever before, there's more advanced testing methods that are readily available, and holistic lifestyle upgrades are being discovered around the clock.

So what do we do about that? Hopefully we do something! 

The old saying goes, "if you know better, do better."

​

I have dedicated 1000s of hours to studying precision, functional, and regenerative medicine products, technologies, and clinical application practices- to deliver my patients the care that they should experience as the golden standard.

​

My practice style is extremely hands on. I know my patients like I know my family.

We laugh together, we cry together, I advocate for them, and I'm available to them 24/7.

When they're sick, I hand deliver natural supplementation.

When they're sad, I invite them out for lunch.

When they have a health concern, they call and I answer.

​

I practice with an emphasis on psychospiritual support, biochemical re-balancing such as holistic endocrine and hormonal physiology optimization, anti-inflammatory regenerative treatments, whole-food medical grade natural supplementation, and biomechanical optimization- to keep you active and feeling good enough to do so.

​

I start all of my patients off with a functional nutrition gut repair protocol, so that we can prepare their body to become a vessel of receptivity.

The protocol results in lowered stress, improved digestion, lowered blood pressure, and decreased systemic inflammation.

I provide extensive metabolic assessments and laboratory workups to ensure that we find the root cause of their symptoms and physiological experience. 

​

If you notice, I lean away from ending the conversation with a diagnosis.

In my professional opinion, that's where traditional medical practices get it wrong. 

Don't lead with a diagnosis and then move forward. 

Walk it backwards.

I view the majority of diseases and disorders as manifestations of something else gone awry; so I reverse engineer the physiology to arrive at true the answer.

If I follow the physiology of a reproductive disorder, I may trace it back to the dysfunction of an entirely different organ system.

​

I realize that my methodology takes extensive time, research, and dedication.

That's why I refer to my practice as, designer holistic medicine.

The boutique medical practice. 

I intentionally offer extremely limited memberships, so that I have the capacity to dedicate several hours every month to each of my patient's case studies.

Real answers and real solutions. 

I love and protect my patients like a mother hen cares for her chicks, and if you ask any of my patients, the feeling is mutual. 

We're a real family, and it is such an honor to serve.

​

Thank you for reading this section; everything is written in my own words directly from my heart center.

I truly hope that they've clearly outlined "medicine my way"- the Luxe way.

With So Much Love,
