The Path to Integrative Medicine
My journey into integrative medicine began during my residency when I witnessed the limitations of treating patients with a purely symptom-focused approach. I saw too many people receiving prescriptions without addressing the underlying causes of their illness—and I knew there had to be a better way.
This realization led me to explore functional medicine, nutrition science, acupuncture, and mind-body therapies. I pursued additional training and certifications, determined to offer my patients a more comprehensive approach to healing. Today, I'm honored to practice medicine that treats the whole person, not just the disease.
Every patient I see reminds me why I chose this path—to make a real, lasting difference in people's lives by addressing root causes and empowering them with knowledge and tools for optimal health.
