A Different Way to Practice Medicine

The key, is figuring out the root causes.

The causes might be multiple and different, and thus the treatments should be different and personalized depending on the causes.

I like to spend time with my patients.

Together we don't only discuss medical symptoms, but also diet, exercise patterns, traumas, lifestyle and any exposure to toxins etc.

Next we collaborate to address the underlying causes of disease. This includes searching for factors that might affect how the patient’s body functions, including:

  • Lifestyle choices such as diet, activity and stress
  • Environmental influences (such as exposure to toxins)
  • Genetic makeup

The whole idea is to promote health, prevent disease, rather than treating symptoms only.
