What We Do

General Preventive Medicine involves the combination of clinical screening, counseling, and prophylaxis of disease.  With a heavy reliance upon lifestyle (food, exercise, stress reduction for example), our practice uses an integrative approach to provide balance in your health.

Integrative Healthcare is the term being used for a "new movement driven by the desires of consumers but now getting the attention of many academic health centers... It has a far larger meaning and mission in that it calls for restoration of the focus of medicine on health & healing, and emphasizes the centrality of the doctor-patient relationship.

It insists on patients being active participants in their health care as well as physicians viewing patients as whole persons - active ­ minds, community members, and spiritual beings as well as physical bodies.  Finally, it asks physicians to serve as guides, role models, and mentors, as well as dispensers of therapeutic aids."  Dr.'s Snyderman and Weil
