Through my personal experience I have learned that healing is a process of transformation that involves the whole person - spirit, mind, emotions and body. I have seen the body's capacity to heal and understand the role of the physician as facilitating that innate capacity. In my life and work I have witnessed the strengths and limitations of conventional medicine in treating many common problems such as hypertension, diabetes and heart disease and many of the more complex problems like inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis and chronic pain. At the same time, I have found nutrition, exercise, acupuncture and other healing approaches to be more effective, better tolerated and beneficial for long term health. As a result, I focus on natural, nontoxic and less invasive therapies to correct underlying imbalances and to promote self healing. Working together with my patients, we develop an individualized plan, utilizing a wide range of therapeutic approaches from conventional, complementary and traditional systems."
