Primary Care
Our comprehensive primary care services include annual physicals with advanced diagnostics, acute care visits, and preventive health screenings. Patients receive 30-60 minute appointments focused on building long-term physician relationships. We emphasize early detection through comprehensive health risk assessments and preventative mental health evaluations.
Weight Loss Program
This evidence-based program combines metabolic testing with personalized nutrition and exercise plans. We address chronic fatigue and weight management through lifestyle medicine rather than temporary diets. Our approach includes metabolic rate analysis and customized workout plans to overcome plateaus and achieve sustainable results.
VO2 Max Testing
Our VO2 max testing measures cardiovascular endurance and metabolic efficiency using clinical-grade PNOE devices. This breath analysis identifies fat vs. carbohydrate burning efficiency and determines optimal training zones. Results inform personalized exercise and nutrition plans to improve performance and longevity.
Chronic Disease Management
We specialize in managing diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, and mental health conditions through lifestyle interventions. Our approach combines regular monitoring with health coaching to implement sustainable changes in nutrition, sleep, and stress management. The program includes telemedicine follow-ups and medication adjustments when necessary.
Preventative Exams
Our preventative services include annual physicals with genetic risk assessments, cancer screenings, and heart health evaluations. We offer dermoscopy for skin lesion analysis and direct access to board-certified dermatologists. Preventative mental health assessments are conducted through partnerships with behavioral health specialists.
