There are more tools and more pieces of the puzzle that are considered such as environment, lifestyle, and genetics. You are treated as the individual you are and are given a personalized plan.

A Functional Medicine doctor spends more time with you, listens, becomes your partner, and individualizes your care. Integrative Medicine integrates other modalities and disciplines that can enable healing to occur and health to be maintained. The Anti-Aging approach uses advanced scientific and medical technologies for the early detection, prevention, treatment, and reversal of age-related dysfunction, disorders, and diseases.

This is a winning combination that will help you maintain your abilities and enable you to feel younger and healthier.
