True Healing Starts with Understanding
At Heal MD, we evaluate the root causes of disease. Our goal is to optimize your health and reverse chronic disease. We provide functional medicine consultations designed to improve your quality of life and wellbeing. We offer a holistic approach that addresses the biological, social, and spiritual health of our patients. We also pride ourselves on staying up-to-date with cutting edge diagnostic approaches.
Our practice is unique because we focus on prevention and treating the whole person, not just a single ailment.
Through nontraditional evaluations and treatment protocols, we identify the root cause of your health concerns or conditions. Thereby, restoring your body to its natural balance. In addition to addressing the physical symptoms you have, we address your emotional and spiritual health. Best of all, we empower you to take ownership of your health and well-being, while providing the treatment you need to overcome health challenges.
Our Approach
We focus on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Instead of treating symptoms, we seek to find and alleviate the underlying cause. We call this true healing.
Consultations
Our Consultations involve a comprehensive health assessment, timeline of evolving symptoms, and innovative testing to uncover root causes of chronic health challenges.
