Helping patients live their healthiest lives means providing the time and access for them to be clearly heard and thoroughly understood in life’s everyday and important moments. It’s also about taking a comprehensive approach to living intentionally.
That’s why my practice offers:
Comprehensive annual physical and ongoing medical support care
Membership in my online wellness program, FitForImpact
Discounted membership at Life Changing Fitness
Heart attack and stroke prevention program
Partnership and support to help you make lasting, healthy life change, and more.
Our commitment to comprehensive care.
Your wellness needs go beyond the doctor’s office — and we think your care should, too. That’s why we include a free membership in our FitForImpact wellness program ($14.95/mo value), as well as a discounted gym membership, in your monthly retainer.
24/7 access to your personal physician.
When the unexpected happens and you’re concerned or at your most vulnerable, I’ll be there to care for you. That’s why I give patients 24/7 access to me by email, text, Skype, FaceTime, and/or personal cellphone. I also provide:
Telephone consultations
After-hours and weekend office visits, if more than telephone or FaceTime is warranted
House calls in emergencies
Comprehensive annual physical and ongoing medical support care
A new standard in office visits.
Extended, relaxed office visits
Same day/next day appointments with minimal to no wait times in office
Minor laceration repair, minor skin biopsies, and cryotherapy for skin lesions
Hassle-free experience: no copays, deductibles, or other at-time-of-service billing
Comprehensive history and extended annual physical.
A one-hour comprehensive history and physical forms the basis for a long-term doctor-patient relationship with deep perspective. Patients will provide pertinent old medical records, a thorough family history, and a three-day nutrition diary one week prior to the appointment. The one-hour physical covers:
Prostate and well-woman exams
Nutrition and fitness assessment
Vision and audio testing
Screening for anxiety and/or depression
Routine lab tests
Screenings for bone density, ankle-brachial index (ABI) for vascular health in the legs
Updates to routine immunizations. Tetanus and influenza vaccines are covered.
If not up-to-date, we coordinate and schedule mammograms for ages 40+ and colonoscopies for ages 50+.
Thoughtful, preventive wellness care.
I strongly believe in what I call the “Fruits of Wellness.” When we as people incorporate Love, Joy, Compassion, Humility, Patience, Forgiveness, Faithfulness, and Self-Control into all areas of our lives, we become more fit, healthy, and impactful. As an avid believer in caring for the whole self, I offer patients a comprehensive approach to preventive wellness, including:
Heart attack and stroke prevention program
Complimentary membership in my online wellness program and community, FitForImpact
Discounted membership at Life Changing Fitness for $36.95/month + tax
Detailed coordination and follow-up.
Most of my patients’ needs can be met in our office or through telephone consultation and ongoing access to me. For those situations that require additional expertise, we offer assistance, including:
Hospital visits to act as your advocate with hospital staff and specialists; prompt in-clinic after-care
Prompt referral, coordination of care with a strong network of specialists
In-office follow-up to discuss specialist care plan
Coordinated care with physicians in other cities if required while you’re traveling
Pre-operative medical consultations
